Comments on draft-nadas-vrrp-unified-spec-00.txt

Steve,

Overall I like the new draft, but I would like to offer a few comments:

1) In the abstract and introduction you mention VRRP groups.  I assume what
you mean by this is that within a VRRP router the virtual routers in each
address family are a domain unto themselves and do not overlap.  It might
just be me, but the word group implies some new organizational structure
that we're not really adding.  Particularly in the second paragraph of
section 3 where you mention a group number. 

2) In section 6.4.1 when we transition from the initialize state to the
backup state don't we want to set the Master_Down_Timer to the
Master_Down_Interval (not the Adver_Timer)?

3) I think we should also mention in the two cases (both from the backup and
master state) when we set the Master_Adver_Interval to Adver Interval
contained in the ADVERTISEMENT that we need to recompute the
Master_Down_Interval.

4) In section 7.1 we now have a contradiction.  Since we are accepting the
Master's advertisement interval we can no longer reject a mismatch.

5) In A.1 bullet item 2 you have a reference to VRRPv4.

Thanks,
Steve
