Good catch - the only IPv4 address was in the example in the Appendix
('tftp 192.0.2.1 -c get SN19842256.enc') -- I've changed this to
instead be 'tftp 2001:0db8::23 -c get SN19842256.enc'.
I've also clarified that the document is more of a framework, and that
things like how devices perform their autoboot is background and
describes existing vendor functionality.
Currently the autoboot implementations mostly / all use DHCP. There
was a 6MAN document to add a "Boot File URL option" to RAs
(draft-qin-6man-nb-option), but this work seems to have been abandoned
- but, whatever the case, this functionality should work with any sort
of autoboot that delivers something that looks like a config file,
regardless of how that files is discovered...

Gadzooks, yes, definitely! Fixed and pushed to github...
Thank you...

I've added some (admittedly handwavey) text to an earlier commit, but
am expecting that I'll get some feedback during LC / SecDir / Security
AD reviews.
Thank you for the shepherd writeup / review,

P.S: Apologies all for the terseness of this email (and other emails)
- I am attempting to improve my typing, and so am trying a split,
ortholinear keyboard, and am having a REALLY hard time adjusting...

I don't think the execution is relevant when it was obviously a bad
idea in the first place.
This is like putting rabid weasels in your pants, and later expressing
regret at having chosen those particular rabid weasels and that pair
of pants.
