Title: Encrypted ESP Echo Protocol
Authors: Antony Antony

Name: draft-ietf-ipsecme-encrypted-esp-ping-00.txt
Pages: 10

Abstract:
This document defines the Encrypted ESP Echo Function, a mechanism
designed to assess the reachability of IP Security (IPsec) network
paths using Encapsulating Security Payload (ESP) packets. The
primary objective is to reliably and efficiently detect the status of
end-to-end paths by exchanging only encrypted ESP packets between
IPsec peers. The Encrypted Echo message can either use existing
congestion control payloads from RFC9347 or a new message format
defined here, with an option to specify a preferred return path when
there is more than one pair of IPsec SAs between the same set of
IPsec peers.
A peer MAY announce the support using a new IKEv2 Status Notifcation
ENCRYPTED_PING_SUPPORTED.
