- Section 4.1: I guess the MNID is generally supposed to be unique (at least in the realm the ID is used), but not all IPv6 addresses are guaranteed to be unique (a link-local or unspecified address is an obvious example, an ULA may also be inappropriate depending on the usage context). It may be better to note the fact, and you may also want to impose some restrictions on the type of address that can be used as an MNID.
This is correct. I will fashion some language as suggested. I think it is appropriate to allow ULAs, but multicast and unspecified addresses seem clearly inappropriate, and I am i favor of disallowing link-local addresses.
- Section 4.5 2000, modulo 2^32. Since the link-layer address can be of variable length [RFC2464], the DUID-LLT is of variable length. I don't understand why RFC2464 is referenced in this context. This RFC is about IPv6 over Ethernet, and assumes a fixed (6 bytes) length of hardware address.
I don't quite know what to do about this. I actually just copied this language from RFC 3315. I think that the citation is also wrong in RFC 3315, for the same reason as given here. I could simply delete the reference to RFC 2464.
