Re: Preliminary comment skip draft 03
Germano Caronni <caronni@tik.ee.ethz.ch> provided this diagram:
encrypted part
+---------------+-----------------------+====+========================+
|32-bit SKIP SPI|64-bit MI network order|data|8bit next protocol field|
+---------------+-----------------------+====+========================+
where MI is the number of bytes that were already encrypted with the
current Kp.
Why do you want to limit the MI (a.k.a. IV) to the counter? A random
number works fine too.
