Network World Fusion: “The protocol widely used to set up VPN tunnels
is potentially insecure and work on extending its

Engineering Task Force.

Administrative groups within the IETF have put
a temporary moratorium on extensions to
Internet Key Exchange (IKE) without saying how
long that moratorium should last.”
