Pasi Eronen: Please find below some comments about draft-ietf-send-ndopt-00. o Section 5.1 seems to suggest that other options than CGA, Nonce, or Timestamp could be placed after the Signature option; however, Section 5.3.1 says the Signature option MUST be the last option. Perhaps 5.1 should be clarified? -------------------- Jari Arkko: Yes. Looking at Section 5.1: > The CGA option MUST appear before the Signature option. This requirement is redundant, as the Signature is last in any case. > The Nonce option SHOULD appear before the Timestamp option. At first I thought this was a reasonable requirement. However, looking at it in more detail, I'm not so sure anymore. Both options are relatively simple to process, or at least the CPU usage for them is not a DoS issue. So why require anything? And why require anything with a SHOULD, since the receiver would have to have code to handle the general case anyway? > The Signature option MUST NOT be be followed CGA, Nonce, or > Timestamp options. Yet another case of redundancy in the draft. > It is RECOMMENDED that the options appear in the following order: > CGA, Nonce, Timestamp, Signature. More redundancy... My conclusion is that Section 5.1 is unnecessary and should be removed. Comments? -------------------- -------------------- --------------------
