I am an assigned INT directorate reviewer for this Internet-Draft. These comments were written primarily for the benefit of the Internet Area Directors. Document editors and shepherd(s) should treat these comments just like they would treat comments from any other IETF contributors and resolve them along with any other Last Call comments that have been received. For more details on the INT Directorate, see http://www.ietf.org/iesg/directorate.html. I hope these comments are clear and useful. As requested, from the Internet area Directorate review, these two DMM documents are being reviewed together: * draft-ietf-dmm-distributed-mobility-anchoring-14 * draft-ietf-dmm-pmipv6-dlif-05 This document provides an approach to distributed mobility management by extending network-based mobility protocols (like Proxy Mobile IPv6). In this solution, mobility sessions are anchored at the last IP hop router. This document’s intended status is Experimental. It is well written for such a complex comprehensive document, and technically complete and sensible. No major or minor issues. Nits: Please find some small comments for your consideration: 4.1. Proxy Binding Update A new flag (D) is included in the Proxy Binding Update to indicate that the Proxy Binding Update is coming from a Mobility Anchor and Access Router and not from a mobile access gateway. The rest of the Proxy Binding Update format remains the same as defined in [RFC5213]. 0 1 2 3 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | Sequence # | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ |A|H|L|K|M|R|P|F|T|B|S|D| Reser | Lifetime | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ However, for RFC 5213 S 8.1: +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ |A|H|L|K|M|R|P| Reserved | Lifetime | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ So, therefore, seems like: 1. The definition of Flags F, T, B, and S is missing. 2. “Reser” is not really clear and “Rsrvd” seems to fit and be more unambiguous. 4.2. Proxy Binding Acknowledgment … The rest of the Proxy Binding Acknowledgment format remains the same as defined in [RFC5213]. 0 1 2 3 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | Status |K|R|P|T|B|S|D| | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ However, from RFC 5213: 0 1 2 3 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | Status |K|R|P|Reserved | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ And thus, Flags T, B, S are not defined. 4.3. Anchored Prefix Option Anchored Prefix A sixteen-byte field containing the mobile node's IPv6 Anchored Prefix. Only the first Prefix Length bytes are valid for the Anchored Prefix. The rest of the bytes MUST be ignored. Not being pedantic, but: s/byte/octet/g // throughout. Or… "128-bit” instead of “sixteen-octet”. 5. IANA Considerations This document defines six new mobility options that need to be registered in the Mobility Options registry on the Mobile IPv6 parameters registry. The required IANA actions are marked as IANA-1 to IANA-6. It would be useful to breakout the specific IANA requests in a table, sections, or other structure detailing how it should look in the IANA registries. 6. Security Considerations Is there underlying protection against spoofing that can be called out? This should be addressed in the Security Dir review, so I will not mention it here :-) 8.2. Informative References [I-D.ietf-dmm-deployment-models] Gundavelli, S. and S. Jeon, "DMM Deployment Models and Architectural Considerations", draft-ietf-dmm-deployment- models-04 (work in progress), May 2018. Since there are key definitions from this document, should this be Normative? [RFC7333] Chan, H., Ed., Liu, D., Seite, P., Yokota, H., and J. Korhonen, "Requirements for Distributed Mobility Management", RFC 7333, DOI 10.17487/RFC7333, August 2014, . Similarly, should this reference be Normative instead of Informative? Appendix B. Implementation experience Should this really be an Implementation Status section [RFC7942], as it describes a point in time rather than learnings? Should the Appendices clarify they make no normative specs? I hope these comments are useful. Thank you very much, Carlos Pignataro.
