Hi Stig,

Please note that the Connection ID AFI in the PORT Hello Option does not
need to match the address family of PIM Hello message that carries it.
e.g. an IPv6 PIM Hello message could contain a PORT Hello Option with a
TCP Connection ID AFI of 1 (IPv4).
While I am OK with this text, wouldn't it be better to add this to 3.1
and 3.2 where we formally define the hello options?
My proposal would be:
End of 3.1:
OLD:
TCP Connection ID AFI: The AFI value to describe the address-family
of the address of the TCP Connection ID field. When this field is
0, a mechanism outside the scope of this document is used to
obtain the addresses used to establish the TCP connection.
NEW:
TCP Connection ID AFI: The AFI value to describe the address-family
of the address of the TCP Connection ID field. Note that this
value does not need to match the address-family of the PIM Hello
message that carries it. When this field is 0, a mechanism
outside the scope of this document is used to obtain the
addresses used to establish the TCP connection.
End of 3.2:
OLD:
SCTP Connection ID AFI: The AFI value to describe the address-
family of the address of the SCTP Connection ID field. When this
field is 0, a mechanism outside the scope of this document is used
to obtain the addresses used to establish the SCTP connection.
NEW:

What do you think?
This works great.
Great, I hope we can then just add a note for the editor, and that the
discuss can be cleared...
Stig
Thanks
Suresh
