Hi, 

Thanks for the feedback Bernie, the sentence mentioning the reference is the one below in the security consideration. 

The link between the HNA and the DHCPv6 server may benefit from additional security for example by using {{?I-D.ietf-dhc-sedhcpv6}}.

I think the example was illustrative on how the link security can be improved. Now I also agree that referring a dead idea is not so ideal. My questions are: do we have more valuable examples to cite and if not 2) don't you think we should remove the sentence completely ? - I suspect simply removing the reference creates a sort of Lapalissade.

Yours, 
Daniel

Hi:

I would highly recommend dropping the text/reference to:

[I-D.ietf-dhc-sedhcpv6]
              Li, L., Jiang, S., Cui, Y., Jinmei, T., Lemon, T., and D.
              Zhang, "Secure DHCPv6", Work in Progress, Internet-Draft,
              draft-ietf-dhc-sedhcpv6-21, 21 February 2017,
              <https://www.ietf.org/archive/id/draft-ietf-dhc-
              sedhcpv6-21.txt>.

As that work was long ago abandoned by the DHC wg and it serves no purpose to reference dead work.

Thanks.

   The IESG has received a request from the Home Networking WG (homenet) to
   consider the following document: - 'DHCPv6 Options for Home Network Naming
   Authority'
     <draft-ietf-homenet-naming-architecture-dhc-options-19.txt> as Proposed
     Standard

   The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits final
   comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the
   last-call@xxxxxxxx mailing lists by 2022-10-04. Exceptionally, comments may
   be sent to iesg@xxxxxxxx instead. In either case, please retain the beginning
   of the Subject line to allow automated sorting.

   Abstract


      This document defines DHCPv6 options so an Homenet Naming Authority
      (HNA) can automatically proceed to the appropriate configuration and
      outsource the authoritative naming service for the home network.  In
      most cases, the outsourcing mechanism is transparent for the end
      user.




   The file can be obtained via
   https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-homenet-naming-architecture-dhc-options/



   No IPR declarations have been submitted directly on this I-D.
