Abstract
This document describes a heuristic approach for distinguishing ESP- NULL (Encapsulating Security Payload without encryption) packets from encrypted ESP packets. The reason for using heuristics instead of modifying ESP is to provide a solution that can be used now without updating all end nodes. With heuristic methods, only the intermediate devices wanting to find ESP-NULL packets need to be updated.
