Hi Tero,
Can you please submit an errata to RFC 4307 with this detail?
Thanks,
Yaron

True.
So, the "_CBC" to "_XCBC" is either a typo in the email or in the spec, and:
Yes. The original spec had typo. And the specifications are not
exactly consistent with namings.
The original (RFC3664) and revised (RFC4434) used name
AES-XCBC-PRF-128 for the algorithm, but neither one of them did
specific IANA allocations. The IANA Allocation was done in the RFC4306
and it used the name PRF_AES128_XCBC for that algorithm. This is the
name that is in the iana registry
(http://www.iana.org/assignments/ikev2-parameters/ikev2-parameters.xhtml).
The RFC4307 used PRF_AES128_CBC to refer to same algorithm. There is
no problem in the interoperability as it also refers to the correct
number and has pointer to the correct specification for the algoritm,
but I think we should fix this typo while we are revising this
document.
