Summary: This draft is ready for publication as a standard track RFC with small nits to be corrected.

Major issues: None.

Minor issues:

* The document seems to imply/assume that a DNS query has multiple question sections with different QTYPEs. At least the exmaples in lines 226 and 278 make me read so. I wonder whether this is actually the intention. If not, reword/edit accordingly to avoid the confusion. This is to avoid known issues when QDCOUNT>1 or have a justification to do so.

* Section 5 and the assiciated HIP RR figure mostly mentions public key but not HI anymore. For the clarity I would suggest adding text that the public key is the HI as well.


Nits/editorial comments:

* IDnits complains on outdated reference: draft-ietf-hip-rfc5204-bis-06 but this can be corrected e.g., by the RFC Editor.

* Line 97: s/address\(es\)/addresses

* Line 162: s/obtain/obtains

* Line 163: s/initiate/initiates

* The document sometime uses "initiator" instead of "Initiator" e.g., in line 173. Suggest always using "Initiator" when meaning the HIP Initiator.

* API is never expanded.

* Sentence between lines 204-206 is somewhat hard to parse. Suggest rewording.

* Line 201: "HIP node (R)" probably means Responder. Suggest actually stating that.
