A few editorial comments: — Section 1 — to be quantum resistant, that is, invulnerable to an attacker with a quantum computer. “Invulnerable” isn’t the same as “not vulnerable”: it has a stronger connotation. You should probably use “not vulnerable” or “resistant” instead. By bringing post- quantum security to IKEv2, this note removes the need to use Make it “this document”, please. This document does not replace the authentication checks that the protocol does; instead, it is done as a parallel check. What’s the antecedent to “it”? Should “it is” instead be “they are”? — Section 3 — when the initiator believes it has a mandatory to use PPK You need hyphens in “mandatory-to-use”. — I also find it interesting that Alexey thought you needed to add a normative reference for “ASCII”, bit not for “base64”. Personally, I think both are sufficiently well known that you need neither. _______________________________________________ IPsec mailing list [email protected] https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ipsec
