default life negotiation issue



Can a SA be negotiated that only contains a lifesize (no lifetime in
seconds)?  I ask this because I got a little confused by this paragraph in
RFC2407 (DOI):

    If unspecified, the default value shall be assumed to be 28800 seconds
    (8 hours).

If a initiator only proposes a lifesize attribute of KBytes, do I assume
that they are also implicitly proposing the default lifetime value above?
