There has been some need for tools making debugging IPsec
configurations easier, and the working group will work on documents to
help that. One such protocol could be esp-ping.

I would like to add something around: Other protocols aim at
handling fragmentation as well as the management of DSCP.
draft-liu-ipsecme-ikev2-mtu-dect
<https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-liu-ipsecme-ikev2-mtu-dect/> and
draft-mglt-ipsecme-dscp-np
<https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-mglt-ipsecme-dscp-np/> are expected
to be considered as starting points.

Yours,
Daniel
