Hello listmates,

One of the most widespread security protocols is IPSec, but many of
us have found that the number of knobs and settings and switches gets
really overwhelming. I was in that boat as well, so I dove in and wrote
a paper that covers IPSec at the protocol level.

It doesn't cover things like Key Exchange yet (that's the *next* paper),
but it's got a lot of detail that should be comforting to any TCP/IP
geeks.

It's amazing how much one learns by writing about it...

      These are MY OPINIONS             "We can't solve problems by using
       ALONE.  I speak for                the same kind of thinking we used
       no-one else.                         when we created them."
