Hi Francis,

Thanks for your comments. I shall fix all below issues in next version of
the draft.
Although I have comments for couple of issues below.
Please check inline.

Thanks,
Dushyant.

[Dushyant]: I understand that currently we don’t have any option to be
sent in STARTTLS message. But it could be a case that we reuse this message
for some other feature (in future) and there we may send some option in
the same.

So should we ignore that possibility and say that "STARTTLS message SHOULD
be sent
without any option”?

[Dushyant]: Secure DHCPv6 isn’t a standard yet. Can we use that as
reference?
