draft-ietf-v6ops-ipsec-tunnels update

[Pekka Savola <pekkas@netcore.fi>]

Hello all,

There was some discussion on this doc, in particular, about authors' 
suggestion to remove Tunnel mode support.  In response to the comments 
a specific operating mode of tunnel mode is described in an appendix. 
The reasons why we prefer transport mode instead (similar to RFC 3884) 
were discussed on the list and are expanded in the document.

The authors would welcome folks to take a look at this version to make 
sure that the document looks good.  I'd like to ask to send feedback 
by Oct 18 (in a week) so that we may consider whether the draft needs 
to revised prior to the IETF.

NOTE:	The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
	MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility.  To use this
	feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
	command.  To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
	a MIME-compliant mail reader.  Different MIME-compliant mail readers
	exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
	"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
	up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
	how to manipulate these messages.

Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
