Compression of IPsec AH and ESP Headers for 6LoWPAN Networks
2016
This document describes the header compression mechanisms for IPsec
[RFC4301] based on the encoding scheme standardized in [RFC6282]. The
IPsec Authentication Header (AH) and Encapsulated Security Payload
(ESP) headers are compressed using Next Header Compression (NHC)
defined in [RFC6282]. This document does not invalidate any encoding
schemes proposed in 6LoWPAN [RFC6282] but rather complements it with
compressed IPsec AH and ESP headers using the free bits in the IPv6
Extension Header encoding. Also, this document does not require any
changes in a conventional IPsec host on the Internet; the header
compression is applied only at the 6LoWPAN layer and is effective
within 6LoWPAN networks.
