Section 6.9 says:

Original Text
-------------
If the 'PKT HMAC ID' field does not match the Requested HMAC ID, the ITR
MUST discard the Map-Reply and send, according to rate-limitation
policies defined in [RFC9301], a new Map-Request with a different
Requested HMAC ID, according to ITR's local policy or until all HMAC
IDs supported by the ITR have been attempted.

Corrected Text
--------------
If the ITR did indicate a Requested HMAC ID and the 'PKT HMAC ID' field is
different, or if the ITR did not indicate a Requested HMAC ID and
the 'PKT HMAC ID' field is not supported, the ITR MUST discard the
Map-Reply and send, according to rate-limitation policies defined in
[RFC9301], a new Map-Request with a different Requested HMAC ID,
according to ITR's local policy or until all HMAC IDs supported by
the ITR have been attempted.

Notes
-----
This sentence requires discarding any Map-Reply whose 'PKT HMAC ID'
does not match the Requested HMAC ID, but Section 6.4 allows the ITR
to send NONE (0), meaning it has no preferred HMAC ID.  With 0 in the
Requested HMAC ID field, no registered PKT HMAC ID (1 or 2 in
Section 8.3) can match, so every Map-Reply would be discarded and
retried "until all HMAC IDs supported by the ITR have been attempted",
and the ITR could never accept a protected Map-Reply.  The preceding
paragraph of Section 6.9 uses a two-branch rule conditioned on whether
the ITR indicated a Requested HMAC ID.  The correction applies the
same two-branch structure to the PKT HMAC ID.
