Hi all,

In the RFC9147, in the last paragraph of Section 4 it's stated:

"""
This 128-bit value is used in the ACK message as well as in the "record_sequence_number" input to the Authenticated Encryption with Associated Data (AEAD) function.
"""

But the very last sentence of the same paragraph states:

"""
In DTLS 1.3 the 64-bit sequence_number is used as the sequence number for the AEAD computation; unlike DTLS 1.2, the epoch is not included.
"""

Aren't these statements contradictory?

I think only the 64-bit sequence number is meant to be used and the first paragraph is a replace-error done while increasing the epoch size from the last draft.

Thanks,
Marco
