Hi, I’ve read the threads, and to avoid the long email page I try to summarize my opinions below.
1. I also support making this document Informational or Experimental. 2. Through the discussions, I feel that even IPsec experts will have inconsistencies and ambiguities in their understanding of the reasons currently defined. Without clear definition and consistent understanding, this delete reason hint may be misguiding. I suggest that we summarize the common situations/reasons of the SA deletion, and give more details about these situations, i.e., explaining the delete reasons better, to ensure everyone having the same understanding. 3. Regarding the “Delete Reason Text”, I have no concern with the language issue, because it’s only a hint, and you can use it if you understand it and ignore it if you don’t. But my concern is what if you can understand the text but it is inconsistent with the “Delete Reason Type”, then which one should be considered true. So my suggestion is to not have this text field in the first available version, or to make it optional and not use it when a specific delete reason type is given. I.e., we should use the “Delete Reason Type” as much as possible. Regards & Thanks！ Wei PAN (潘伟)
