Here are some comments on draft-ietf-syslog-dtls-02. All are nits.
1. Introduction:
r/with TLS security [RFC5246]/with TLS [RFC5246]
r/syslog Message/syslog message
Upon first reading of the last paragraph, I was trying to figure out how
I was going to use syslog/DTLS/UDP/DCCP. Can we use "in preference to"
for "over" in the last sentence (or something other than "over"):
OLD:
If an operator has the choice of the two, it is recommended to use
syslog over DTLS over DCCP.
NEW:
If an operator has the choice of the two, it is RECOMMENDED to use
syslog over DTLS in preference to syslog over DCCP.
2. Terminology
To align with the DTLS client definition:
OLD:
A "DTLS server" is an application that can receive a Client Hello from a
client and reply with a Server Hello.
NEW:
A "DTLS server" is an application that can receive a DTLS Client Hello
from a client and reply with a DTLS Server Hello.
4. Using DTLS to Secure Syslog

record MUST fit within a single DTLS datagram
