Hi Jinmei,
I think that you are the current editor of
draft-ietf-ipv6-scoping-arch-01.txt? If not, please let me know who
is editing this document.
I have attached a list of comments from IESG review of this document.
The only blocking comments is Steve Bellovin's but the other comments
should be considered, as well. Also, the document does not have a
table of contents, which is required for any document this long.
Please update the document to address these issues and let me know
when a new version is available.
Thanks,
Margaret
Steve Bellovin:
Discuss:
[2004-07-06] The Security Considerations section should note that the
ambiguity of addresses means that unqualified source IP addresses
cannot safely be used in security contexts such as ACLs or IKE
negotiation.
Comment:
[2004-07-06] The discussion of convex routing in Section 5 should
probably note that tunneled links are excluded from the prohibition.
Ted Hardie:
Comment:
[2004-07-08] In Section 6:
A tunnel interface (e.g., the abstract endpoint of an
IPv6-over-IPv6 tunnel [8], presumably established over either the
Ethernet or the point-to-point link.)
COMMENT: In general, this is a very helpful example. I would
suggest, though, that defining the tunnel interface as established
over the Ethernet might help illustrate the point that it gets
its own link-local zone, where two interfaces to the same Ethernet
link do not. Not strictly necessary, but it would be a good opportunity
to make the point.
Scott Hollenbeck:
Comment:
[2004-07-01] A table of contents would be helpful. The I-D checklist
says one is required for documents longer than 15 pages.

This formulation (towards bottom of page 6) sounds/feels a bit strange:
dedicated purpose. An entry of a Management Information Base (MIB)
will be an example of the dedicated purpose. The actual
Not sure what "An entry of a .. (MIB)" is.
Maybe a better sentence might be
Usage of the index to identify an entry in the Management Information
Base (MIB) is an example of the dedicated purpose.
