Comments on the draft, mostly editorial in nature:

(1) There are still some blockquotes that start with excessive first-line
indents, eg., the three quotes on page 5.
(2) Page 5, should add comma after "system" in "Reboot, depending on the
system."
(3) Page 5, should pluralize "implementation" in "IKEv2 implementation can
detect."
(4) Page 5, should remove "the" in "rules given in the section."
(5) Page 6, correct "even has change" to "even has a chance."
(6) Page 6, change comma to semicolon in "immediately, in those cases."
(7) Page 6, suggest improving sentence beginning "Note, that" to read "Note
that the IKEv2 specification specifically gives no guidance for the number
of retries or the length of timeouts, as these do not affect
interoperability."
(8) Page 6, suggest changing "messages as hints that will shorten" to read
"messages to shorten."
(9) Global, need commas after "i.e."
(10) Page 6, change "that kind of hints" to either "this kind of hint" or
"these kinds of hints."
(11) Page 7, pluralize first word in "Implementation that are not token
takers."
(12) Section 4.1, should we specify that the critical bit is set to 0?
(13) Page 8, the last line is an orphan.
(14) Section 4.2 says the payload "MUST follow . . . and precede . . ."  In
general I think the IKEv2 specs have tried to say SHOULD for ordering
considerations; should we do so here?
(15) Section 4.3 says "SHOULD send a new ticket."  I think we mean to say
"QCD_TOKEN notification" instead of "ticket."
(16) Section 4.5, is it correct to denote the unprotected message as a
"request" in the flow diagrams?  I think we were careful in RFC 5996 to
denote standalone messages as informational messages rather than
informational requests.
(17) Section 7, change "new IKE SA consume" to "new IKE SA to consume."
(18) Section 7, suggest changing "re-establishment should occur" to either
"would occur" or "will occur."
(19) Section 8.1, suggest changing "inter-domain VPN gateway" to either add
"an" before it or pluralize "gateway."

Working Group of the IETF.


                 Title           : A Quick Crash Detection Method for IKE
                 Author(s)       : Y. Nir, et al.
                 Filename        : draft-ietf-ipsecme-failure-detection-03.txt
                 Pages           : 23

This document describes an extension to the IKEv2 protocol that
allows for faster detection of SA desynchronization using a saved
token.

When an IPsec tunnel between two IKEv2 peers is disconnected due to a
restart of one peer, it can take as much as several minutes for the
other peer to discover that the reboot has occurred, thus delaying
recovery.  In this text we propose an extension to the protocol, that
allows for recovery immediately following the restart.
