Document: draft-ietf-v6ops-ra-guard-06.txt Reviewer: Miguel Garcia Review Date: 12-July-2010 IETF LC End Date: 12-July-2010 IESG Telechat date: 15-July-2010 Summary: The document is ready for publication as an informational RFC. Major issues: none Minor issues: none Nits/editorial comments: - The Abstract contains a couple of references. Abstracts should be self-contained, so they shouldn't contain references - The Abstract is way too long, and contains an introduction (so, it is no longer an Abstract). I will remove the first two paragraphs from the current Abstract, and use the third one to build a new one. A good paragraph for the Abstract is the last paragraph of Section 2 as well. - General to the whole document: s/SeND/SEND - Second last paragraph in Section 2. I would add an informative reference to the X.509 specification. - The Security Considerations are a bit light, IMHO. Perhaps you should say that the security considerations of RFC 3971 apply (I don't know if this is true or not, I am just giving an example). I also miss some text saying that the L2 switch and the routers need to check certificates (here you can add a reference to X.509). Well, the process of checking certificates is written elsewhere, but not in this section, somehow I miss it here. In essence, anything that helps a router to prevent accepting a wrong RA should be described here.
