Re-reading draft-ietf-mip6-rfc4285bis-00.txt I noticed a couple of things.

* The references are out of date

Example: draft-ietf-mip6-mn-ident-option-03.txt become RFC 4283 in 2005.

* RFC 3344 is a normative reference without a reason

* More RFC 2119 language is needed. When someone reads through the text 
then the places are pretty obvious. I could list them, if someone cares.

* Replay Protection: There is no mandatory to implement replay 
protection technique. To me it seems that only the timestamp based 
replay protection really seems to be usable when used in combination 
with the AAA infrastructure.

Ciao
Hannes
