> Abstract:
> 
>    An Internet Key Exchange protocol version 2 (IKEv2) extension defined
>    in RFC8784 allows IPsec traffic to be protected against someone
>    storing VPN communications today and decrypting them later, when (and
>    if) a Cryptographically Relevant Quantum Computer (CRQC) is
>    available.  The protection is achieved by means of a Post-quantum
>    Preshared Key (PPK) which is mixed into the session keys calculation.
>    However, this protection does not cover an initial IKEv2 Security
>    Association (SA), which might be unacceptable in some scenarios.
>    This specification defines an alternative way to provide protection
>    against quantum computers, which is similar to the solution defined
>    in RFC8784, but also protects the initial IKEv2 SA.
> 
>    RFC8784 assumes that PPKs are static and thus they are only used when
>    an initial IKEv2 SA is created.  If a fresh PPK is available before
>    the IKE SA expired, then the only way to use it is to delete the
>    current IKE SA and create a new one from scratch, which is
>    inefficient.  This specification defines a way to use PPKs in active
>    IKEv2 SAs for creating additional IPsec SAs and rekey operations.
