Mukesh,
A first sentence like:
"The rate-limiting parameters SHOULD be configurable per node,
if the node has similar speed/bandwidth interfaces, and/or per interface, if the node has disimilar speed/bandwidth interfaces".
or
"The rate-limiting parameters SHOULD be configurable per node,
if the node has similar interfaces, and/or per interface, if the node has disimilar speed/bandwidth interfaces".
would be more explicit/descriptive.
The rest is fine.
Thanks, Alex

Alex,
Thanks for pointing this out. What do you think about the following as the replacement text?
=============
The rate-limiting parameters SHOULD be configurable. In the
case of a token-bucket implementation, the best defaults depend
on the computational power of the device and the speed/bandwidth of the interfaces that it has (e.g., a high-end router vs. an embedded host, a 10G ethernet vs. a T1 interface). For example, in a small/mid -sized device with limited bandwidth interfaces, the possible defaults could be B=10, N=10/s.
==============

The last paragraph of Section 2.4, item (f) of draft-ietf-ipngwg-icmp-v3-04.txt is pointing to ICMP rate limiting configurability on a per node basis.
ICMP Rate-limiting configurability makes sense also on a per interface basis.
In a case of a router having different speed/bandwidth interfaces, for example IPv6 interfaces on fast links, as well as slower links, the adequate ICMP rate-limiting parameters on a 1G or 10G Ethernet, could be quite different from a T1, or T3 link.
