At the top of the thread, you suggested to change: > If DTLS peers have negotiated the use of a CIDs using the ClientHello > and the ServerHello messages into: > If DTLS peers have negotiated the use of a non-zero CID in at least > one direction, using the ClientHello and the ServerHello messages which is fine with me. However, I think it doesn't completely remove the ambiguity you are pointing at. So I'd suggest we also change the paragraph just above from: If DTLS peers have not negotiated the use of CIDs then the RFC 6347-defined record format and content type MUST be used. to: If DTLS peers have not negotiated the use of CIDs, which includes the case where both sent a zero-length cid in their connection_id extensions, then the RFC 6347-defined record format and content type MUST be used. Regarding your suggestion: > "The DTLS peers determine whether incoming and outgoing messages > need.." seems not to cater for unidirectional CIDs; perhaps > "The DTLS peers determine whether incoming or outgoing, or both, > messages need.." It surely works for me. cheers, thanks! IMPORTANT NOTICE: The contents of this email and any attachments are confidential and may also be privileged.
