Document: draft-ietf-dhc-dhcpv6-solmaxrt-update-03
Reviewer: Dan Romascanu
Review Date: 8/25/13
IETF LC End Date: 9/3/13
IESG Telechat date: (if known)

Summary: Ready with minor issues

Major issues: None

Minor issues:

1. My understanding is that although the default values of SOL_MAX_RT and 
INF_MAX_RT were the same in RFC 3315, and now they are change to similar 
values, there is no mandatory behavior defined for servers to set them at the 
same values using the new override options. If this is the case then the 
Abstract should say 

OLD: 

... override the client's default value for SOL_MAX_RT
   and INF_MAX_RT with a new value.

NEW: 

... override the client's default value for SOL_MAX_RT
   and INF_MAX_RT with new values.

If I am wrong, and the values of the two parameters are always identical at 
defalult or after changes, then something needs to be said on this respect in 
Section 8 (DHCPv6 Server Behavior)

2. This is not a document problem but a WG management issue. I could not find 
anything in the dhc WG charter that corresponds to this document, so I cannot 
say whether this document meets the conditions of the 'contract with the IESG'. 
Actually the charter seems not to have been updated for five years, if not 
more. I guess that with Ralph as an author all is OK, but an update of the 
charter seems to be needed. 
 

Nits/editorial comments:

Section 7: 

OLD:

   a DHCPv6 client MUST silently ignore any SOL_MAX_RT or INF_MAX_RT
   values that are less than 60 or more than 86400.


New:

   A DHCPv6 client MUST silently ignore any SOL_MAX_RT or INF_MAX_RT
   values that are less than 60 or more than 86400.


Regards,

Dan
