I have a comment on this document on something that just came to my attention.

Starting from version 02, a little arrow has been added to Figure 3 which describes the reactive mode with Hi/Hack (if necessary) indication. This change was not properly marked in the change log. I understand that the origins of this change is "the need from the field, e.g. PMIP".

Sending a Handover Indication message by NAR which already knows that handover has already finished violates simple protocol engineering principles that we follow in designing protocols. Similarly PAR sending Handover Acknowledge is problematic PDU naming.

Regards,

Behcet
