Recent changes in the INET Framework
====================================

INET 3.6.9 (January 2021) - stable
----------------------------------

This release adds an IPsec model, and improves on UDPBasicApp. It requires
OMNeT++ 5.3 or later, or OMNeT++ 6.0 Preview 9 or 10.

IPsec:

The IPsec model implements basic RFC 4301 functionality: Authentication
Header (AH) and Encapsulating Security Payload (ESP). Key exchange protocols
are not model modeled, but instead, security associations (SAs) are statically
configured and remain in effect for the entire duration of the simulation.

The model does not perform actual cryptography. This was an explicit non-goal,
as the purpose of the model is to study the effects of the network overhead of
IPsec. As a consequence, encryption keys, certificates, and other cryptography-
related data do not appear in the model's data structures. However, protocol
overhead and a simple performance model to account for the runtime overhead
of cryptography are included.

Further limitations:
- Transport mode only. Tunnel mode is not supported.
- Multicast traffic is not supported.
- The anti-replay mechanism is not implemented.
- DSCP-based SA selection is not implemented.

UDPBasicApp:

Added sendScript parameter; sendInterval made optional. The change is
backward compatible (existing fingerprints unchanged).


INET 3.6.8 (October 2020) - stable
----------------------------------

This release contains a compatibility fix to be able to build INET with
OMNeT++ 6.0 Preview 9. It requires OMNeT++ 5.3 or later.

NOTE: OMNeT++ 6.0 Preview 5-8 will NOT work with this releasre. Use INET 3.6.7
NOTE: OMNeT++ 6.0 Preview 5-8 will NOT work with this release. Use INET 3.6.7
with those versions or rather upgrade your OMNeT++ installation.
