I'm not sure which commercial interoperability
testing and certification program for IPsec
products you work for but I have an idea. In
fact, I think I know who you are!
I used to work for a Very Large Router Company. I
wrote the IKE RFC and conveniently wrote the code
running on the routers for said company. When we
submitted for certification with a commercial
interoperability testing and certification group
for IPsec products, one of the testers called me
and told me my code was not compliant. Then he
proceeded to tell me what the IKE RFC "actually
said". You can guess where this is going. I told
him that since I wrote the text I knew what it
"actually said". He was not happy but he backed
down. I did not change a line of code. We received
our plack.
True story! Ask your co-workers.
Alas, I will be missing the Anaheim meeting.
Vote "yes" for me! :-)
