Follow-up To clarify my question from my last email, I raise three important issues here:
1 - The assumption made in this draft is not true because, according to RFC 4941, the IID is randomly generated and so will never be the same value (The use of stable storage in the first approach and the use of CGA in the second approach prevent the generation of the same value) 2 - It takes the same cryptographic approach as explained for CGA in RFC 3972 (sec value 0). The main reason for using CGA is because of the generation of a random IID, regardless of ,whether or not, it is used in SEND. Now the real question is what are the differences between this algorithm and those explained in RFC 3972 and RFC 4941? 3- the result of these false assumptions is that the possibility of attacks is probable is false too.
