I think that the point that David is raising is why bother to include an SNMP-related text in the security section, while the draft does not contain any SNMP MIB objects definition. 

However, this is a minor editorial issue, relative to the modeling problems raised by David. I share his concern that this draft goes into a divergent direction relative to the existing interface state model defined by the Interfaces MIB. I am wondering whether you have looked at that model and considered adding the eventual missing pieces, instead of creating an alternate one. 

-->         When we were implementing IPv6 protocol stack, we felt that the IF State Model is not sufficient for IPv6 Interfaces 
              to reflect all error condition.  I did not give a thought to add missing pieces in IF State Model rather than defining 
              the new State Model. Probably it is a good idea to think in this direction.
           

Regards,

Dan
