Acknowledged. RFC6731 listed the use cases. The described case 1, 2 in
the previous message can be likely solved through RFC6731. So the
statement of applicability is particularly for those cases.

I would like to learn more about the problems. One description I found
was documented in http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6418#section-4.1. If I
understand correctly, it mainly talk about the issues of coordination
with private name space among different interfaces. I guess those
issues are also the targets of RFC6731. If there is anything missing,
it would be helpful you could kindly point out.
