Summary: This document supplies test vectors for the MTI authentication
algorithms used in the TCP Authentication Option. There are a few nits that
should be corrected prior to publication. I'm not equipped to validate the test
vectors themselves and did not attempt to do so. [Ready with nits.]

Major issues: None

Minor issues: None

Nits/editorial comments:

Page 2, Abstract: move this entire section before the "Status of this Memo"
section, as required by RFC 7322, section 4.

Page 4, first full paragraph: move "[RFC6978]" after "experimental extension"
to avoid confusion.

Page 10, section 5, 1st paragraph: add a period at the end of the sentence.

Page 20, section 7, 1st sentence: add a period at the end of the sentence.

Page 24, section 8.2: add a comma after "e.g.".

Page 25, section 8.4, 2nd bullet item: change "to" to "in".

Page 25, section 8.4, 3rd bullet item: change first "to" to "in".

Page 25, section 9, 2nd paragraph: between the usage in section 3.1.1 and here,
choose a consistent case for "master_key". I know, RFC 5926 (Master_Key) and
RFC 5925 (master_key) are not consistent between themselves.
