No I have no intention of seeking another meeting slot for this little

can put through the necessary Standards Action to get the DHCP/DHCPv6
options in place.
Again, this is about DHCP options to tell a router where to find two
management entities, the SYSLOG Collector and the SNMP Notification
Receiver, for use primarily in configuring mobile backhaul.
For the syslog, I have no objections. However, I found the SNMP bit
lacking. Specifically, there are additional security considerations
depending on SNMP version (plus the trap versus inform thing). While
this is explained in the Appendix, I started asking myself these
questions when I read the SNMP and security consideration sections
before getting to the appendix.
My point is that perhaps additional text is needed in the SNMP section
that at the very least points to Appendix A for more specifics on SNMP
version, notif type and security. And in the security considerations,
it would be good to speak to the fact that SNMP requires a level of
security that must be specified externally to the DHCP offer from the
server.
