RE: Last Call: IPSec DOI Proposed Standard



The document <draft-ietf-ipsec-ipsec-doi-08> is inconsistent with the IP
Payload Compression Protocol (IPComp) as defined in
<draft-ietf-ippcp-protocol-05>.

   4.4.5 IPSEC IPCOMP Transform Identifiers
 
      The IP Compression (IPCOMP) transforms define optional compression
      algorithms that can be negotiated to provide for IP compression
      before ESP encryption.
      ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^  Is this very partial definition needed?

   6.6 IPSEC IPCOMP Transform Identifiers

      The IPSEC IPCOMP Transform Identifier is an 8-bit value which
                                                  ^^^^^I-D defines 1-63(6 bit)
      identifier a particular algorithm to be used to provide IP-level
      compression before ESP.  Requests for assignments of new IPCOMP
      ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ see above
      transform identifiers must be accompanied by a standards-track RFC
      which describes how to use the algorithm within the IPCOMP framework
      ([IPCOMP]).  In addition, the requested algorithm must be published
      and in the public domain.  If the requested algorithm is not in the
      public domain, the addition must be approved by an IESG action.

      The values 249-255 are reserved for private use amongst cooperating
                 ^^^^^^^ 58-63?
      systems.
