The TLS working group went quite far with TLS 1.3.  Only 2 ciphers remain: 
AES-GCM with 16-byte ICV, and ChaCha20-Poly1305. That’s it.  Specifically, 
they’ve deprecated everything that isn’t an AEAD.

The IPsecME working group hasn’t gone that far yet.  But in practice pretty 
much nothing is used except 3DES, AES-CBC, and AES-GCM.  Perhaps 
ChaCha20-Poly1305 is starting to see some use by now. We have RFC 8221, 
especially sections 5 and 6.  I think (although it’s up to the working group) 
that we should be fine defining only the MUSTs and the SHOULDs in those 
sections.

That brings another question. What is our plan for future expansions?  Suppose 
there’s some hot, new algorithm that everyone is implementing. How do you 
update the YANG model in the future when you add new values to the 
enumerations?  Is it up to the administrator to make sure that the controller 
and NSFs are all on the “same page”?

Thanks

Yoav
