PIM is not subject to the need to consider priorities the way OSPFv3 is, so the existing IPsec specification is perfectly fine. Acee Linden: Similar OSPFv3 draft in last call now. Explains how they did it for serial numbers, and issue with router being taken out of service. Stig: If it takes weeks, is it so bad? Albert: Asked if presented in KARP. Stig: Manual intervention. Asked about unicast PIM messages. Brian Weis: GDOI exists. Acee: 64 bits is enough Brian: I suggest that you wait until the OSPF document passes IESG, and then progress this one.

Make every router a candidate BSR Need to make the use case more apparent. Eric: Need a statement of ?? Jeff: Anycast RP?
