Re: IVs, summary of discussion



Steve,

	You're right that a TCP checksum error is not viewed as a
security violation per se.  However, detecting an integrity check
violation in IPSP only inducates the presence of an error, and doesn't
say whether it's malicious or benign.  The open question is whether
someone who is concerned about responding differently to (or auditing)
errors is willing to spend the extra overhead in space and the
computational overhead rerquired to incorporate a separate integrity check.
