Hi,

Because of paucity of time I did not discuss the IP header protection for OSPF Security.

I would request people to go through section 6 - "Mechanism to secure the IP header" of http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-bhatia-karp-ospf-ip-layer-protection-03 and let us know if they have any concerns with that section.

Cheers, Manav
