Please find below some non-blocking COMMENT points (but replies would be appreciated even if only for my own education), and some nits. Special thanks to Tero Kivinen for the shepherd's detailed write-up including the WG consensus and the justification of the intended status. I hope that this review helps to improve the document, Regards, -éric # COMMENTS (non-blocking) ## Abstract As the I-D is about authentication methods, I wonder whether `with multiple different credentials` is the right wording, should it rather be "different authentication methods" ? (of course with some text repetition). ## Section 3.1 `Regardless of whether the notification is received,` may be I am mis-reading this, but why would the responder send the notification if the initiator does not care anyway ? ## Section 3.2 While the readers may guess some details, but let's be clear in a proposed standard I-D: 1) `Notification Data field` does not appear in figure 4 2) role of C flag and its value 3) value of Protocol ID 4) saying that reserved field must be set to 0 by sender and ignored on the receiver ## Section 3.2.1 Let's be crisp and specify that the length is in octets. Is there a registry for authentication method ? or should this specification be updated for every new authentication method ? # NITS (non-blocking / cosmetic) ## Section 1 The last sentence of the 2nd paragraph is rather long and I think that "that" should be used in `the peer which supports wider range of`. ## Section 3.2.1 Missing closing parenthesis in the last paragraph. _______________________________________________ IPsec mailing list IPsec@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ipsec
