The IESG has approved the following document: - 'Intermediate Exchange in the IKEv2 Protocol' (draft-ietf-ipsecme-ikev2-intermediate-10.txt) as Proposed Standard This document is the product of the IP Security Maintenance and Extensions Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Benjamin Kaduk and Roman Danyliw. A URL of this Internet Draft is: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-ipsecme-ikev2-intermediate/ Technical Summary This document defines a new exchange, called Intermediate Exchange, for the Internet Key Exchange protocol Version 2 (IKEv2). This exchange can be used for transferring large amount of data in the process of IKEv2 Security Association (SA) establishment. Introducing Intermediate Exchange allows re-using existing IKE fragmentation mechanism, that helps to avoid IP fragmentation of large IKE messages, but cannot be used in the initial IKEv2 exchange. Working Group Summary The document content was not particularly controversial. The only issue some had was about creating a generic intermediate exchange, separate from the future documents that will actually use it. However, after all the discussion, the consensus was not rough Document Quality There are three independent implementations of the draft, one by the author and two other by open source implementations (libreswan and strongswan). All three were tested as interoperable with each other. Personnel The Document Shepherd is Yoav Nir. The responsible AD is Benjamin Kaduk.
