What is the standardization status of AES in IPSec?



Hello:

Can any one give me an update on the standardization status of using AES in
IPSec?

I am reading “The AES Cipher Algorithm and Its Use With IPsec”
<draft-ietf-ipsec-ciph-aes-cbc-03.txt> and read “ Once NIST has published
the AES FIPS ... AES should become a default and mandatory-to-implement
cipher algorithm for IPSec”.

FIPS-197 was out in Nov-2001. When an IPSec/AES RFC is expected to come out?

Thanks,
