Ho Herbie, Looks like there's couple of RFCs that make isolated references to AH for IPv4, but I don't see any where AH is a major topic other than RFC8200, RFC4301, and RFC4302. Of course RFC791 doesn't mention AH :-) Tom > > > -----Original Message----- > > From: Brian E Carpenter <[email protected]> > > Sent: Wednesday, December 31, 2025 4:12 PM > > To: Tom Herbert <[email protected]>; int-area <[email protected]>; > > 6MAN <[email protected]> > > Subject: [Int-area] Re: Fwd: New Version Notification for draft-herbert- > > deprecate-auth-header-00.txt > > > > Penguin Solutions Security Checkpoint: External email.
