<br>
<span class=content1><font color=black face=Arial>The PKIX is standardized by
IETF body for distribution/renewal/revocation of certificates. And PKIX use CMP
and OCSP for achieving the mentioned goals. </font></span><br>
<br>
<span class=content1><font color=black face=Arial>Now, I hear that a new
working group (PKI4IPSEC) has been formed to standardize the usage of
certificates with IPSEC. </font></span><br>
<br>
<span class=content1><font color=black face=Arial>My question is: </font></span><br>
<br>
<span class=content1><font color=black face=Arial>1. How are vendors
implementing the PKIX framework(for using with IPSEC) ? </font></span><br>
<br>
<span class=content1><font color=black face=Arial>2. How are they able to
inter-operate with other CAs? </font></span><br>
<br>
<span class=content1><font color=black face=Arial>Regards, </font></span><br>
