Detailed comments Provide detailed written comments on the paper. In general, your main aim as a reviewer is to help improve the paper. Be as specific as you can when you point out errors or problems. Suggest concrete improvements whenever possible. Your review should cover the following three aspects. Use the suggested guidelines in composing your review for each aspect. The paper provides nice overview of PLA without going too deeply to the details. Some ideas and thoughts are listed below: - You could discuss a bit more deeply, what makes PLA IPv6-specific (as was already discussed during the lecture). - In the applications, how the initial authorization of an initiator is carried out. (It is mentioned, that it can be achieved offline, but still, how?) - As PLA-provides only authentication (and integrity protection), it would be nice to give some ideas on how to achieve confidentiality also. Some picture of the packet-structure if PLA+IPSec is used might be nice. (Actually, some figure of the structure of the packet with only PLA might be helpful). - As the paper discusses also actual applications, some discussion on how to actually implement PLA might be good. Such as, how to distribute the hardware accelerators, how to create the trusted communication between nodes and TTP and so on.
