The below data summarizes what grep(1) has to say about the matter. The RFCs with stars in front of them are the ones I'm most inclined to believe. Yes, some documents appear on more than one list. ;-) Basically, I think that although 'IPsec' seems to be the most popular, nobody can agree on the ``correct'' spelling. As long as we're consistent, we should be okay. IPsec: *RFC 2401 Security Architecture for the Internet Protocol RFC 2403 The Use of HMAC-MD5-96 within ESP and AH RFC 2404 The Use of HMAC-SHA-1-96 within ESP and AH RFC 2405 The ESP DES-CBC Cipher Algorithm *RFC 2406 IP Encapsulating Security Payload (ESP) RFC 2409 The Internet Key Exchange (IKE) RFC 2410 The NULL Encryption Algorithm and Its Use With IPsec RFC 2709 Security Model with Tunnel-mode IPsec for NAT Domains IPSEC: RFC 2207 RSVP Extensions for IPSEC Data Flows RFC 2403 The Use of HMAC-MD5-96 within ESP and AH RFC 2404 The Use of HMAC-SHA-1-96 within ESP and AH RFC 2407 The Internet IP Security Domain of Interpretation for ISAKMP RFC 2408 Internet Security Association and Key Management Protocol RFC 2412 The OAKLEY Key Determination Protocol IPSec: RFC 2393 IP Payload Compression Protocol (IPComp) RFC 2405 The ESP DES-CBC Cipher Algorithm RFC 2451 The ESP CBC-Mode Cipher Algorithms FYI, someone published a paper a few months ago about how researchers don't actually read the papers they cite. He based this argument on the fact that errors in citations tend to propagate from paper to paper, presumably because people don't actually go to the original source. I don't buy his argument entirely, but I found it amusing nevertheless.
