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 document describes a variety of approaches for encoding pre-congestion information into the IP header. The document claims that all relevant security considerations are covered in RFC 5559 and so far as I can tell this is correct since these approaches all fit within the architecture defined by RFC 5559 and the security considerations for that document appear to be adequate. In any case, this document does not include any normative text. Whichever approach or approaches are eventually selected for standardization will presumably need to come back to IESG for approval. A more detailed security analysis of the approaches can be done at that time. From a security perspective, I see no obstacle to approval of this document at this time. I will say that the document is rather difficult to understand if you're not well versed in PCN technology. I believe that I have understood enough to evaluate the security aspects of the document but I would not claim that I understood the document at a deep level. This may be fine but it will certainly reduce the number of useful reviews that the document will get. Thanks, Steve
