Re: Question about REAP state transition (draft-ietf-shim6-failure-detection-09)

Alberto,

it's been a long time, so I'm not entirely sure if I missed something  
else in your message. Please let me know if that's the case. I want to  
change this text:

<t hangText='Precvd'><vspace blankLines='1'/>

This is a 4-bit field that indicates the number of received probes
included in this probe message. Received probe fields are copies of the
same fields received in (recent) earlier probes and may be included or
omitted as per any logic employed by the implementation.


to:


<t hangText='Precvd'><vspace blankLines='1'/>

This is a 4-bit field that indicates the number of received probes
included in this probe message. Received probe fields are copies of the
same fields in earlier received probes that arrived since the last  
transition from state Operational to state Exploring. When a sender is  
in state InboundOk it MUST include copies of the fields of at least  
one the inbound probe. A sender MAY include additional sets of these  
received probe fields in any state as per any logic employed by the  
implementation.


I think this addresses the problem where two unidirectional paths  
wouldn't be found.
