... This section considers interactions between Quick-Start and IP tunnels, including IPsec ([RFC4301]), IP ...
... Simple tunnels: IP tunnel modes are generally based on adding a new "outer" IP header that encapsulates ...
... Tunnels that are compatible with Quick-Start: We say that an IP tunnel `is not compatible with Quick-Start' if the use of a Quick- Start ...
... Quick-Start over the tunnel does not cause false positives, we say that the IP tunnel `is compatible with Quick-Start'. ...
... Tunnels that support Quick-Start: We say that an IP tunnel `supports Quick-Start' if it allows routers ...
