Hi all,

Following the last IETF meeting, we would like to take the following
direction for our draft:

1. Negotiation: use KE payload as described in
draft-tjhai-ipsecme-hybrid-qske-ikev2-01. The main reason is backward
compatibility. Not all IKEv2 implementations out there are
RFC7296-compliant, while it is theoretically possible to upgrade them,
but we cannot guarantee that all of them would be upgraded. With the
approach described in draft-tjhai-ipsecme-hybrid-qske-ikev2-01, there
won't be any issues with backward compatibility.

2. There appeared to be a consensus in using an intermediary stage,
i.e. IKE_AUX, to transport the post-quantum key exchange payload.

3. There was also a suggestion in using a new payload type, e.g. PQKE
or QSKE, to carry the post-quantum key exchange payload.

What do people of think of this approach?

Thanks,
CJ
