Hi Ian,

The NAPT44 in the lwB4 MUST implement ICMP message handling behaviour 
conforming to the best current practice documented in [RFC5508]
If the lwB4 receives an ICMP message without the ICMP identifier field for 
errors detected inside the IPv6 tunnel, the node should relay
the ICMP error message to the original source (the lwAFTR).

Does the highlighted part mean "If the lwB4 receives an ICMP error message", if 
so can you replace it as suggested?
I am not really sure why icmp identifier field is mentioned in there. Other 
than that I am ok with the text.

Thanks
Senthil

Hi Woj / Senthil,

Putting the other discussions to the side for a moment, can we tackle the 
fragmentation text you proposed as this should be easily resolvable?



Suggested text:

The NAT44 in the lwB4 MUST implement the behavior for ICMP message conforming 
to the
   best current practice documented in 
[RFC5508<http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5508>].
If a LwB4 receives an ICMP error message without the ICMP
   identifier field for errors that is detected inside a IPv6 tunnel, the
   node should relay the ICMP error message to the original source.
   This behavior SHOULD be implemented conforming to the section 8 of
   [RFC2473]<http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2473#section-8>.
 FOr TCP and UDP traffic the NAT44 implemented in the LwB4 SHOULD conform with 
the behavior
   and best current practice documented in 
[RFC4787<http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4787>], 
[RFC5508<http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5508>], and
   [RFC5382<http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5382>].


What about the following wording, tweaked after reading RFC6888 (Common Reqs 
for CGNs), replacing Section 5.2:
---
For TCP and UDP traffic the NAPT44 implemented in the lwB4 SHOULD conform with 
the behaviour and best current practices documented in
[RFC4787], [RFC508], and [RFC5382]. If the lwB4 supports DCCP, then the 
requirements in [RFC5597] SHOULD be implemented.

The NAPT44 in the lwB4 MUST implement ICMP message handling behaviour 
conforming to the best current practice documented in [RFC5508]
If the lwB4 receives an ICMP message without the ICMP identifier field for 
errors detected inside the IPv6 tunnel, the node should relay
the ICMP error message to the original source (the lwAFTR).

This behaviour SHOULD be implemented conforming to the section 8 of [RFC2473].
----

@Senthil, as this is a change to the wording previously agreed, could you let 
me know if you’re OK with the proposed new text?

Cheers,
Ian
