RFC 3576bis discussion at IETF 68

["Bernard Aboba" <bernard_aboba@hotmail.com>]

As part of the RFC 3576bis discussion, it was suggested that RFC 3576bis 
remove mention of the Nonce attribute, since this did not really address 
replay protection.  Also, it should be clarified that the Event-Timestamp 
attribute does NOT require changing the Identifier on a retransmision; the 
Event-Timestamp refers to the time of the original transmission, and 
therefore does not need to change on a re-transmission.

Also, it was pointed out that Event-Timestamp does not require synchronized 
clocks, only for the RADIUS server to remember the last value for a given 
NAS, and to make sure that it is monotonically increasing.

Any objections to implementing these suggestions in RFC 3576bis-01?
