To be specific, you should know first about what is IPsec. How it can be
configured, monitored and/or audited in various versions of Windows
operating system. For these details, you shall refer the below link:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc783420(WS.10).aspx

Further to accomplish your task, you shall use ike-scan utility/tool for
checking performance or conformance requirements with respect to the RFC
associated with IPsec. Refer below link for all the information on ike-scan
tool:
http://www.darknet.org.uk/2008/11/ike-scan-ipsec-vpn-scanning-fingerprinting-and-testing-tool/

*IPsec RFC history:*
IPsec was developed in conjunction with IPv6 and is therefore mandatory in
all standards-compliant implementations of IPv6, but its implementation is
an optional extension to IPv4. However, because of the slow deployment of
IPv6, IPsec is most commonly used to secure IPv4 traffic. IPsec protocols
were originally defined in Requests for Comments RFC 1825 and RFC 1829,
published in 1995. In 1998, these documents were superseded by RFC 2401 and
RFC 2412 with incompatible aspects, although they were conceptually
identical. In addition, a mutual authentication and key exchange protocol
Internet Key Exchange (IKE) was defined to create and manage security
associations. In December 2005, new standards were defined in RFC 4301 and
RFC 4309 which are largely a superset of the previous editions with a second
version of the Internet Key Exchange standard IKEv2. These third-generation
documents standardized the abbreviation of IPsec to uppercase “IP” and
lowercase “sec”. It is unusual to see any product that offers support for
RFCs 1825 and 1829. “ESP” generally refers to RFC 2406, while ESPbis refers
to RFC 4303.


Hope this addresses your requirement. Thanks!
