Re: [Hipsec] Operations Directorate Review of draft-ietf-hip-via-01 by 2010-06-11

["Bert (IETF) Wijnen" <[e-mail]>]

Hi, I have reviewed this document As a member of the Operations
Directorate. Specifically we look at operational and management aspects.

Not that I am not on the HPI wg mailing list.

The document describes 2 extensions to the HIP protocol and adds
one notification. I think the document is clear in terms of protocol spec.
W.r.t. if/how/when to use these extensions it states:

3. Protocol Definitions

The multi-hop routing extensions may be used in different contexts
and whether a new HIP packet should, for example, include a Via list
or have different options enabled, can depend on the particular use
case, local policies, and different protocols using the extension.
This section defines how the new parameters are handled, but when to
use these extensions is out of scope for this document.

So it leaves that up to another document. Is there such a document?
Such would be (in my view) operational aspects. But they are claimed
to be out of scope. I leave it up to our OPS ADs to decide if that
is problematic or not.
