I have reviewed this document as part of the security directorate's
ongoing effort to review all IETF documents being processed by the IESG.
These comments were written primarily for the benefit of the security area
directors. Document editors and WG chairs should treat these comments just
like any other last call comments.


This is an update to a review performed for -28 draft to cover text in
current -30 version. The primary differences since that draft is the
addition of clarifying text, mostly regarding differences with Legacy
ICE-HIP and rationale for current draft. The new language is helpful. The
draft is ready for publication.
