A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts
directories.  This draft is a work item of the IP Security Protocol
Working Group of the IETF.

	Title           : Internet Security Association and Key
			  Management Protocol (ISAKMP)

This memo describes a protocol utilizing security concepts necessary
for establishing Security Associations (SA) and crypto-graphic keys in
an Internet environment.  A Security Association protocol that
negotiates, establishes, modifies and deletes Security Associations and
their attributes is required for an evolving Internet, where there will
be numerous security mechanisms and several options for each security
mechanism.  The key management protocol must be robust in order to
handle public key generation for the Internet community at large and
private key  requirements for those private networks with that
requirement. The Internet Security Association and Key Management
Protocol (ISAKMP) defines the procedures for authenticating a
communicating peer, creation and management of Security Associations,
key generation techniques, and threat mitigation (e.g. denial of
service and replay attacks).  All of these are necessary to establish
and maintain secure communications (via IP Security Service or any
other security protocol) in an Internet environment.

Send a message to:	mailserv@ietf.org.  In the body type:
	"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-ipsec-isakmp-10.txt".
	
NOTE:	The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
	MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility.  To use this
	feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
	command.  To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
	a MIME-compliant mail reader.  Different MIME-compliant mail readers
	exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
	"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
	up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
	how to manipulate these messages.
		
		
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.

No recognizable part in multipart/alternative.
