IPsec Security Association (IPsec SA):
A unidirectional logical connection created for security purposes. All traffic traversing an IPsec SA is provided the same security protection. The IPsec SA itself is a set of parameters to define security protection between two entities. An IPsec SA includes the cryptographic algorithms, the keys, the duration of the keys, and other parameters.

All data variables in the present document are presented with the most significant substring on the left hand side and the least significant substring on the right hand side. A substring may be a bit, byte or other arbitrary length bitstring. Where a variable is broken down into a number of substrings, the leftmost (most significant) substring is numbered 0, the next most significant is numbered 1, and so on through to the least significant.
