hi all,

 I second Glen's comments.

 Moreover, after a quick look to the Problem Statement draft, I think
that for section 4.1 (AR) and section 4.2 you can delegate prefix
during the network access authentication/authorization phase. For NEMO
case, I thought that DHCPv6
or even IKEv2 may be used.

 Regards,

 Julien

I can't find any evidence of actual AAA usage or even a user -- it seems that the author wants to use Diameter just as a transport for arbitrary prefixes (I'm certainly willing to be corrected on that point, however).  I'm led to believe this because of the following statement "[RFC4818] designs Delegated-IPv6-Prefix attribute which is used for delegating prefixes.  However in [RFC4818], the recommended usage scenario is AAA server configures the delegating server with some prefixes and then DHCP Prefix Delegation [RFC3633] can be used to delegate these prefixes to the requesting router.  Also Delegated-IPv6-Prefix carries a number of prefixes only.  Lifetime values for each prefix can not be carried."  I can't think of a reason, if the delegated prefixes were for a human user, why the lifetime of the prefixes would not be just as long as the user session.
