Re: [MEXT] draft-ietf-mext-rfc3775bis-07.txt; and, Re: Finishing RFC 3775bis

Hi Charlie,

... and I MAY have detected further very minor nits like

P.21
"Home Address Destination option" => "Home Address destination option" 
P.22
"the Binding Updates messages" => "the Binding Update messages"
P.66 
"is the first Prefix Length bits" => "is given by the first Prefix Length bits"
P.106
"Mobile Prefix
   Advertisements messages" => "Mobile Prefix
   Advertisement messages"

... and finally beside 50 something times spelling "Binding Cache entry" we also have still 8 times
"binding cache entry" within the document - IMHO this should be harmonized ;-) 

Otherwise it's fine with me - thanks!

Best regards

Dirk

Done!

Done!  ... although I won't absolutely guarantee all
instances of the latter...

I also fixed "binding update" to be "Binding Update".

Thanks Charlie, I think you can post the revised version and I will follow up with requesting publication.

[MEXT] draft-ietf-mext-flow-binding -09 vs -10

Dear authors,
  There was an action field in Flow Identification Mobility Option in -09. This field has been removed in -10.

Any explanation why? Please indicate if there was a comment for removing it.

Regards,

Behcet

Re: [MEXT] draft-ietf-mext-flow-binding -09 vs -10

There were only two meaningful values for the Action field, forward and discard. Lars Eggert (TSV AD) had a DISCUSS on the basis that the discard action turns MIPv6 into a firewall control protocol, and thus we removed the discard action. With only one Action left, i.e., forward, the Action field lost its meaning and was removed.

I respectfully disagree.

This field has been there all over. It should be kept possibly with a statement 
other actions TBD.

Re: [MEXT] draft-ietf-mext-flow-binding -09 vs -10

FWIW, the bits that used to make up the Action field are still there
and still available (i.e.,  reserved for future use).

The WG can at any time turn these back to a Action field, assuming
someone comes up with a valid action. The effort needed to do this is
not a lot more than having to define a new action value had we
retained the Action field in the specification, so in practice there
is no difference and no flexibility/extensibility has been lost.

Having said that, there aren't that many things one can do to a packet
(i.e., possible actions)  and we have considered a number of them, all
of which have been rejected.

Having a field which always encode a single value (i.e., forward) is useless. 

If you ever come up with an action that needs to be signaled in the FID option, there are still 8 bits reserved
there so you're fine.
