- Support for IPsec AH.
+ Support for IPsec AH (Authentication Header).
+
+ AH can be used with various authentication algorithms. Besides
+ enabling AH support itself, this option enables the generic
+ implementations of the algorithms that RFC 8221 lists as MUST be
+ implemented. If you need any other algorithms, you'll need to enable
+ them in the crypto API. You should also enable accelerated
+ implementations of any needed algorithms when available.
If unsure, say Y.
