Re: [DNA] CPL Required in draft-pentland-dna-protocol3-00.txt?

[Brett Pentland <brett.pentland@eng.monash.edu.au>]

Hi Christian,

I think that implementing CPL should be a MUST for dealing with info
from non-DNA routers.  I guess 6.2.5 should have a MUST instead of a
SHOULD.  That section should probably also have a sentence about
changing the CPL state after receiving a CompleteRA - no need for
further solicitations.

Perhaps there should also be some text near the start of the spec
that says that CPL must be implemented by hosts for dealing with
non-DNA routers.

Cheers,
Brett.
