Hello Fred,

Here are some comments, with references to sections.

1.2
Some caveat concerning the multihoming case may be appropriate (see 2.4 below).

2.1
IMHO, it should be mentioned here that, behind an NPTv6 having a /48, subnet 
0xFFFF is forbidden:
- This constraint is significant because it exists neither if global addresses 
are routed nor with NAPTv6.
- Mentioning it only in section 2.6 and 4.2 with the justification found only 
in appendix B would let many readers miss it. 

2.4
In case of multihoming with PA's, a limitation of NPTv6 that should be noted is 
that some incoming connections can fail:
- In a site having global prefixes PA1 and PA2, an internal server has two 
global IPv6 addresses S1 and S2. 
- If its default exit route goes to the PA1-CPE, incoming connections addressed 
to S2 will fail due to ingress filtering in the PA1-CPE.
(If only S1 would be advertised to clients, incoming connections would become 
impossible the PA1-CPE fails, a negation of what multihoming is expected to 
bring.) 

3.2 and remainder of the document.
The word datagram seems to be used instead of packet:
- RFC 2460 doesn't use the word datagram for IPv6, even in case of 
fragmentation 
- In any case, NPTv6 operates individually on packets without concern with 
reassembling fragments.

Last... and least (but already signaled), my name is Remi Despres, not Remi 
Depres
(Actually, it is Rémi Després but it is understood that ASCII doesn't permit.)

Regards,
RD
