Pasi Eronen: o This is a reasonably complex draft; if you have any ideas how to simplify the text, please do implement them One possibility would be to reorder sections 5-8 as 7,8,5,6 (but I'm not 100% sure whether this would make it easier to read or not). o There quite a lot of redundant text, since the same requirements are stated several times (and it's difficult to see that they always match completely). For instance, the requirement that solicitations must include a Nonce option is stated a total of five (!) times with a MUST/REQUIRED keyword, and mentioned a couple of times without RFC2119 keywords. ------------ Jari Arkko: I have question related to Sections 7 (ND) and 8 (RD), and the overall simplification of the document. Would it be better if the this-message-must-have-these-options discussion was a part of Section 5 (new options)? I believe this would reduce the overlap that currently exists in the document. The drawback would be that you'd have to search for, say, RA specific rules from Section instead of having them grouped in Section 8. ------------ I am in the process of re-structuring the draft, to make it simpler and to remove duplication. I have merged Sections 7 and 8 to Section 5, the one that describes what new options we are introducing. I'm still in the process, but I think the end result looks much better than the previous draft. See for yourselves and comment: http://www.arkko.com/publications/send/drafts/draft-send-ndopt.html Also, it turned out the draft had somewhat inconsistent requirements on when to include the specific options*. The new requirements are now in Section 5, you may want to check that they are according to what you like: CGA: http://www.arkko.com/publications/send/drafts/draft-send-ndopt.html#proc-sender-cga http://www.arkko.com/publications/send/drafts/draft-send-ndopt.html#proc-recv-cga Signature: http://www.arkko.com/publications/send/drafts/draft-send-ndopt.html#proc-sender http://www.arkko.com/publications/send/drafts/draft-send-ndopt.html#proc-recv Nonce & Timestamp: http://www.arkko.com/publications/send/drafts/draft-send-ndopt.html#anchor8 http://www.arkko.com/publications/send/drafts/draft-send-ndopt.html#anchor9 An example inconsistency from draft 00: o The Signature option is REQUIRED in all Neighbor Discovery messages. ... Router Solicitation messages sent with an unspecified source address MUST have the Nonce and Timestamp options. Other Router Solicitations MUST have the Nonce, Timestamp, and Signature options. (Does "all Neighbor Discovery messages" cover also RS?) ------------ ------------ ------------
