Re: [IPsec] New PAKE Criteria draft posted (def. of gateway)

Hi Yaron

Thank you for your clarification.

(Between gateways, administrators can set long secrets, so the necessity of
PAKE seems smaller than between clients and gateways where passwords are
recorded in the gateways and users have to type the passwords.)

Anyway, if the scope is limited only on "between gateways" but not "between
clients and gateways," the title 
"Password-Based Authentication in IKEv2: Selection Criteria and Comparison"
seems misleading (since this itself misinforms that this criteria may be
applied to IKEv2 in any cases), and the above should be clearly mentioned in
the document.
