[Anima] AcpNodeName -- Re: I-D Action: draft-ietf-anima-autonomic-control-plane-26.txt

[Michael Richardson <[e-mail]>]

As I understand the diff, AcpNodeName seems to be a new extension,
not a SubjectAltName extension, but an extension?

I found it difficult, reading RFC5912 to figure out where id-on was located,
and I had to go into
  https://www.iana.org/assignments/smi-numbers/smi-numbers.xml#smi-numbers-1.3.6.1.5.5.7.0
to see.

Throughout 5912, we have:
  id-pkix  OBJECT IDENTIFIER  ::=
      {iso(1) identified-organization(3) dod(6) internet(1) security(5)
      mechanisms(5) pkix(7)}

while ACP says:

   id-pkix
    FROM PKIX1Explicit-2009
      { iso(1) identified-organization(3) dod(6) internet(1) security(5)
      mechanisms(5) pkix(7) id-mod(0) id-mod-pkix1-explicit-02(51) } ;

and while I understand that these are "local" variables, it does make
figuring stuff out difficult.  May I request that the above link
(smi-numbers.xml ) go into a comment?  maybe that's not often done.

The IANA section is a bit of a clearer pointer, but I sure wish we'd point
people straight at the the place we mean by URL.
