Comment type: Editorial
Priority: '1' Should fix
Section: 5.3
Rationale/Explanation of issue: 

According to 5.3:

   Upon receipt of the HAR, the home agent recovers the Foreign-Home
   registration key, allocates an SPI to be used with the key, and uses
   this key to create a Foreign-Home authentication extension to the
   Registration Reply message.

But according to draft-ietf-mobileip-aaa-key-01.txt there is no
such thing as a Foreign-Home authentication extension.

Requested change: 

Since there is no need for the mobile node to know the
Foreign-Home key, this was probably a cut and paste
error.  Please remove:

                                                          , and uses
   this key to create a Foreign-Home authentication extension to the
   Registration Reply message.
