Document: draft-ietf-dtn-ipn-update-09 Reviewer: Russ Housley Review Date: 2024-02-01 IETF LC End Date: 2024-02-12 IESG Telechat date: unknown Summary: Not Ready Major Concerns: RFC 7116 is an Informational RFC, and this document, if approved, will be published an an RFC on the standards track. It is very unusual for a standards-track RFC to update an Informational RFC. I suggest that this document and a companion document ought to obsolete RFC 7116, where the companion document separately handles all of the non-ipn topics in RFC 7116. The companion document can be an informational RFC. Minor Concerns: Section 3.4.3: Since these "private use" node numbers all have zero assigned the Allocator Identifier, not one can tell where the administrative domain boundaries are located. This needs to be discussed in the Security Considerations, and this section should point to that new text. That said, the discussion in Section 5.5 is probably fine. A node that is at the edge of an administrative domain needs to be configured to not let "private use" node numbers exit the domain. Section 9.1: I envision the example range being used in a manner similar to the use of Autonomous System (AS) Numbers 64496 through 64511, which are reserved for use in documentation and sample code. Please expand the explanation to include sample code. Likewise for the example range in Section 9.3. Section 9.2: I am not sure that the last row of Table 4 is needed. At the front of the section, say that the valid range is 0 to 2^32-1. Appendix A: It would take less space in this document to define DIGIT than to explain where to find the definition. Adding "DIGIT = %x30-39" make the ABNF complete.
