Re: [MEXT] EXTENDED [WGLC] RFC 3775 bis / draft-ietf-mext-rfc3775bis



Hi all,

I reviewed the draft and I think it is ready to be sent to the IESG.

I have one minor comment on section 11.5.2. 

The text does not cover the case of MN bootstrapping in home link. Here is a proposal:

OLD TEXT

11.5.2.  Home Link Detection

   When an MN detects that it has arrived on a new link using the
   movement detection algorithm in use (Section Section 11.5.1,) it
   performs the following steps to determine if it is on the home link.

   o  The MN performs the procedure described in Section 11.5.2x and
      configures an address.  It also keeps track of all the on-link
      prefix(es) received in the RA along with their prefix lengths.

   o  If the home prefix has not been statically configured the MN uses
      some form of bootstrapping procedure (e.g.  RFC5026 [25]) to
      determine the home prefix.

   o  Given the availability of the home prefix, the MN checks whether
      or not the home prefix matches one of the prefixes received in the
      RA.  If it does, the MN concludes that it has returned home.

NEW TEXT

11.5.2.  Home Link Detection

   When an MN detects that it has arrived on a new link using the
   movement detection algorithm in use (Section 11.5.1) or after bootstrapping, it
   performs the following steps to determine if it is on the home link.

   o  The MN performs the procedure described in Section 11.5.3 and
      configures an address.  It also keeps track of all the on-link
      prefix(es) received in the RA along with their prefix lengths.

   o  If the home prefix has not been statically configured the MN uses
      some form of bootstrapping procedure (e.g.  RFC5026 [25]) to
      determine the home prefix.

   o  Given the availability of the home prefix, the MN checks whether
      or not the home prefix matches one of the prefixes received in the
      RA.  If it does, the MN concludes that it is connected to the home link.



Thanks
