IKEv2 Extensions to Support Robust Header Compression over IPsec
RFC 5857, “IKEv2 Extensions to Support Robust Header Compression over IPsec”, is a Proposed Standard document published in May 2010 by E. Ertekin, C. Christou, R. Jasani, T. Kivinen, C. Bormann. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
Abstract
In order to integrate Robust Header Compression (ROHC) with IPsec, a mechanism is needed to signal ROHC channel parameters between endpoints. Internet Key Exchange (IKE) is a mechanism that can be leveraged to exchange these parameters. This document specifies extensions to IKEv2 that will allow ROHC and its associated channel parameters to be signaled for IPsec Security Associations (SAs). [STANDARDS-TRACK]
What “Proposed Standard” means
An entry-level standards-track specification: stable, peer-reviewed and a solid basis for implementation, though it may still evolve before becoming an Internet Standard.
