DISCUSS:
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Thank you for the work put into this document. I am trusting the security AD to
check whether it is safe not to have a 'random' IV. I have one trivial-to-fix
DISCUSS and a couple of COMMENTs.

It is also unclear at first sight whether the 'nonce' built from the sequence
number is actually the IIV.

Regards,

== DISCUSS ==

-- Section 1 --
D.1) Please use the RFC 8174 template ;)

COMMENT:
----------------------------------------------------------------------

== COMMENTS ==
-- Section 5 --
C.1) "inside the SA Payload" probably worth being a little more descriptive
here (for instance, "SA payload in the IKE exchange" ?).  Also suggest to use
"IKE Initiator Behavior" for the section title.

-- Section 8 --
C.2) please use the usual text for IANA considerations (notably asking IANA to
register as this is not this document that registers the codes).

== NITS ==

In several places, s/8 byte nonce/8-byte nonce/
