Hi,

We have two different security mechanisms - ESP and AH. ESP provides Authentication,Intigrity and Encryption while AH provides Authentication and Intogrity only. Why do we need to use both mechanisms combinly in a tunnel? Why dont we use ESP alone or AH alone? Please correct me if I am wrong.

We can establish tunnel with ESP or AH alone,it is not required to use both, the only reason you would like to use both for tunnel is to have additional security .
