This looks more like an RFC 7401 problem than a HIP-DEX problem; as DEX inherits this from 7401.  In fact it is an RFC 5201 problem!

It looks like Suresh is correct that a code is needed and in sec 3.4 of RFC 2463 a code is need..

I looked at:

https://www.iana.org/assignments/icmpv6-parameters/icmpv6-parameters.xhtml#icmpv6-parameters-codes-5

And nothing there that looks right.

So what is done in HIP BEX implementations?  Both v1 and v2?

And should this be fixed in DEX or an errata for 5201 and 7401?  And if we do an errata, do we still specify the code in DEX?

Nothing is ever "straightforward to resolve" ...

This should be pretty straightforward to resolve.

* Section 5.4.:

The ICMPv6 Parameter Problem messages to be sent need a Code field to be set in
addition to the Pointer. What Code should be used in this message? Please
specify this.
