That point in the RFC is attempting to make sure that a user doesn't try to receive a encrypted packet (for example) when it doesn't support an encryption protocol (IE, if none was configured for it). It is not trying to imply policy with what level of protection a packet must have to arrive for that user. That's the job of the VACM. -- Wes Hardaker Sparta, Inc. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
