[[Med]] Agree.

 If the PE configuration is done by L3NM, the "send-id" and "receive-
> id" must be part of L3NM model, no?

[[Med]] Not necessarily. See below.

 If not, how would the TCP-AO
> provisioning on CEs and PEs work?

[[Med]] The assumption we had for this version of the module is that send-id 
and recv-id are pre-configured while only the key reference is manipulated in 
the L3NM. Some of the implementations separate the TCP-AO configuration from 
the invocation in context of a particular protocol, e.g.,

We can add a note about it you think this helps. Thank you.
