Let me be a bit more clear about how retransmissions of Map-Registers and Map-Notifies work. There are two broad cases, (1) Map-Notify messages as an ack to Map-Registers. (2) Map-Notify messages that are unsolicited from Map-Servers. In the first case: (1) When Map-Registers are sent with the bit set to request acknowledgment for Map-Registers received by Map-Servers, a retransmission timer is set by the xTR for Map-Register retransmissions (which is more often than the periodic Map-Register timer). (2) The Map-Server sends a Map-Notify for each received Map-Register. There is NO retransmission timer for the Map-Notify. In the second case: (1) A Map-Server detects a RLOC-set change and wants to Map-Notify the xTRs in the old and new RLOC-set by sending a Map-Notify message. These messages are acknowledged by the xTR by Map-Notify-Ack messages. In this case the Map-Server DOES have a retransmission timer for the Map-Notify for each xTR. (2) The Map-Notify-Ack DOES NOT have a retransmission timer and simply is sent by an xTR when it receives a Map-Notify. So having said that, you probably still want some better rewording.
