I was first thinking that Message ID and Exchange Type are not very important here either, but as I noticed that the same section do explain Message ID earlier, and talks about Exchanges even when it does not yet specify how different exchanges are indicated, so I think this addition might clarify things. Changed: <t>HDR contains the Security Parameter Indexes (SPIs), version numbers, and flags of various sorts. The SAi1 payload states the cryptographic algorithms the initiator supports for the IKE SA. The KE payload sends the initiator's Diffie-Hellman value. Ni is the initiator's nonce.</t> to: <t>HDR contains the Security Parameter Indexes (SPIs), version numbers, Exchange Type, Message ID, and flags of various sorts.
