I'd suggest the following change in order to make the (DES and 3DES)
sections mimic the following sections for other encryption algorithms.
I was getting confused as to whether the different wording for the DES
and 3DES sections meant we should treat them differently.
4.4.4.2 ESP_DES
The ESP_DES type specifies the DES transform defined in [DES].
All implementations within the IPSEC DOI MUST support ESP_DES along
with the Auth(HMAC-MD5) attribute. This suite is defined as the
[DES] transform, with authentication and integrity provided by HMAC
MD5.
4.4.4.3 ESP_3DES
The ESP_3DES type specifies the triple-DES transform defined in [ESPCBC].
All implementations within the IPSEC DOI are strongly encouraged to
support ESP_3DES along with the Auth(HMAC-MD5) attribute. This suite
is defined as the [ESPCBC] transform, with authentication and
integrity provided by HMAC MD5.
