Martin, Thanks for providing the IRSG review of this draft.

Wasn't there any further work until May 2011? We haven't been updating it with recent work since it would always be a moving target and we would like to publish it with the material gathered through 2009. So I propose no change here. > - Section 2.1, Figure 1: > It is not clear from the figure what is user space and what is kernel > space. This doesn't match the text on page 7, bottom. This might be > confusing to an average reader. Suggested rephrase: Old text: A common way to partition the HIP implementation is to implement a keying daemon in user-space that interacts with kernel-level support for ESP, as shown in Figure 1. However, the HIPL project has demonstrated that it is also possible to support HIP with a purely kernel-level implementation. New text: A HIP implementation typically consists of a key management process that coordinates with an IPsec-extended stack, as shown in Figure 1. In practice, HIP has been implemented entirely in user-space, entirely in the kernel, or as a hybrid with a user-space key management process and a kernel-level ESP. > - Section 2.3.1, page 10, 1st paragraph: > s/4) a ad-hoc/4) an ad-hoc OK > - Section 2.3.1, page 11, paragraph starting with "Over time...": > I suggest to split this paragraph after "...1) and 3).

OK > - Section 2.4, page 16, 3rd paragraph: > The conclusion of the first sentence isn't that obvious for an average > reader. It would be good to give a reference/hint why running IPv6 apps > over IPv4 (and vice versa) is made possible by HIP. Old text: HIP makes it possible to use IPv6 applications over the IPv4 network and vice versa. The interfamily portion of the BEET patch in the Linux kernel was found more difficult to complete compared with the single-family processing. All three open source HIP implementations have demonstrated some form of interfamily handoff support. New text: HIP makes it possible to use IPv6 applications over the IPv4 network and vice versa. This has been called interfamily operation (flexibility between different address families) and is enabled by the fact that the transport pseudoheader is based on HITs regardless of whether the application or the underlying network path is based on IPv4. All three open source HIP implementations have demonstrated some form of interfamily handoff support. The interfamily portion of the BEET patch in the Linux kernel was found more difficult to complete compared with the single-family processing. (new paragraph break here) > - Section 3.5, page 20, 3rd paragraph: > s/200 rps/200 requests per second/ OK > - Section 5.4, page 24, paragraph starting with "A HIP-aware...": > The last sentence is not completely correct, as a change of the IP > address may remove a firewall (or any other network entity) from the > data packet path between source and destination. In this case, the > firewall would not be able to learn any of the changes anymore. I > suggest adding at the end of the sentence ", if still on the path." OK If no other comments, I will publish the -13 version before the cutoff next Monday. - Tom
