Thank you for the work put into this document. The document is easy to read. I
have a couple of comments and nits. Feel free to ignore all of them.

Regards,

== COMMENTS ==

-- Section 1 --
Please add reference to IEEE Std 802.15.4 at first mention.

done



-- Section 1 --
It is unclear in this section whether the PSK is per pledge (then hitting a
scalability issue) or shared by all pledge (then having huge security risk).
Section 3 is clearer on this but the reader would benefit by knowing this in
section 1.

-The configuration defined in this document assumes that the pledge and the JRC 
share a secret cryptographic key, called PSK (pre-shared key).
+The configuration defined in this document assumes that the pledge and the JRC 
share a unique symmetric cryptographic key, called PSK (pre-shared key).


-- Section 2 --
Please consider not using "secret key" and "symmetric key" interchangeably. Esp
as "secret key" is often used in the context of asymmetric key.

I made the change throughout the document to use the term “symmetric key” 
exclusively.




-- Section 3 --
Unsure whether the text about provisionning "Physically, ..." brings anything
useful.

If there is no strong opinion here, I left this text for now as in our opinion 
it gives an idea to the reader on how the provisioning can be done.



-- Section 3 --
Please add references to DHCPv6, GRASP, mDNS.

done



-- Section 4.2 --
It is unclear whether duplicate address detection should be done.

Section 5.6 of RFC8505 that we reference is clear on this that DAD needs not be 
done for link-local addresses. I added the following sentence to clarify this 
in our draft:

+As per {{RFC8505}}, there is no need to perform duplicate address detection 
for the link-local address.



== NITS ==

-- Section 4 --
Please expand L2 at first mention.

done


-- Section 6.1.2 --
I am not a native English speaker but I wonder whether the word 'convergecast'
is well-known.

rephrased to avoid the use of the term “convergecast”.

-Due to the convergecast nature of the DODAG, the 6LBR links are often the most 
congested, and from that point down there is progressively less (or equal) 
congestion.
+The 6LBR links are often the most congested within a DODAG, and from that 
point down there is progressively less (or equal) congestion.
