Abstract:
Signature-based authentication methods are utilized in IKEv2
[RFC7296]. The current version of the Internet Key Exchange Version
2 (IKEv2) protocol supports traditional digital signatures.
This document specifies a generic mechanism for integrating post-
quantum cryptographic (PQC) digital signature algorithms into the
IKEv2 protocol. The approach allows for seamless inclusion of any
PQC signature scheme within the existing authentication framework of
IKEv2. Additionally, it outlines how Module-Lattice-Based Digital
Signatures (ML-DSA) and Stateless Hash-Based Digital Signatures (SLH-
DSA), can be employed as authentication methods within the IKEv2
protocol, as they have been standardized by NIST.
