Hi Vijay,

That should be fine.

Thought it is obvious with this new statement, it is good to extend the
description saying that if client indeed wants to connect to the same
server again, it can send IKE_SA_INIT message without REDIRECT_SUPPORTED
message.

Thanks
Srini

When the REDIRECT is received during the IKE_SA_INIT exchange, the IKEv2

SA is not created. Is it enough if I say, the IKEv2 SA is not created? 
This implies the client cannot continue using the current gateway.
