Re: IPsec and Mobile IPv6

  Francis, your draft is very short.
  My three sentence summary is:

1. NATs are devices in the path.
2. Any device in the path can perform a DoS attack or change IP addresses.
3. A number of protocols have been made NAT-friendly by removing the 
   IP source address (and/or port) from within the protection, leaving those
   protocols open to "pseudo-NATs".

  As much as I dislike NAT .... I guess I'm just not very convinced this is a
serious issue.
