Subject: Re: [Nea] Please REVIEW PT-TLS I-D

few comments/ questions from my side:

- reference to [PT-EAP]: does it make sense to mention a specific draft
that might be different from the final RFC? I might be better to mention
an "EAP based assessment" instead
- section 3.1.1: would it make sense to specify how to keep the TLS
session alive? I think it might be helpful to ensure interoperability
- section 3.4.2.1, line 5: lost "," :-)
- section 3.6, type 8: maybe provide a "real" reference to the PB-TNC
specification?
- section 3.9, error code 6: why is the "SASL mechanism error" handled as
fatal while "Failed Authentication" is not? I would suspect both errors
should be handled the same since both end up with an unauthenticated
client?
- section 4.1.1: "... is trusted to ... expose the authenticated identity
of the Posture Transport Server". I would suspect that the client is
trusted *not to expose* the server's identity? (same in section 4.1.2)
- there are some missing new lines before the following sections: 2.1,
2.3, 3.2, 3.3, 3.4.1, 3.4.2.1, 3.4.3, 3.5, 3.7.1, 4.1
- there is a missing new line after the title of section 3.4.2.3

I hope the comments are helpful.
