Ballot Text

Technical Summary

  Some implementations of IP Security (IPsec) may want to use a pseudo-
  random function (PRF) derived from the Advanced Encryption Standard
  (AES).  This document describes such an algorithm, called AES-CMAC-
  PRF-128.

Working Group Summary

  This document is an individual submission.  It is not affiliated with
  any IETF Working Group.

Protocol Quality

  AES-CMAC-PRF-128 is one of several choices for the IPsec PRF that can
  Be negotiated using IKEv1 or IKEv2.  We believe that AES-CMAC has been
  implemented by at least INTEL, Runcom and SAMSUNG, and we believe that
  other vendors are developing AES-CMAC for their IEEE 802.16e products.

  This document was reviewed by Russ Housley for the IESG.
