Hello Mr. Naito,

I believe the draft aims to solve the following issue.
If server performs active close, it will enter into TIME_WAIT and keep
connection info for 2MSL. if client or NAT picks the same port for a
new connection to the server during this 2MSL period,  the connection
attempt will be rejected. On busy NAT boxes, this will prone to
happen.

I think there are 3 entities in this draft: TCP client, TCP server and
NAT. I think it would be better to articulate which entity your
proposals are aiming.
I think the section 2.1 describes the behavior of NAT. This seems to
be a bit out of scope for tcpm.

The section 2.2 seems to describe the behavior of tcp server, although
the section title seems to indicate updating the behavior of NAT.
In addition, in order to make this work properly, I think client, NAT
and server will need to support rfc6191. But, the deployment of this
approach looks difficult. The authors might need to describe the case
where this approach doesn't work.
Also, can we use the approach described in the section 4.2.2.13 of
rfc1122 instead of rfc6191?

Thanks,
