1.   4.7.10 MaxFailedDTLSSessionRetry is not a timer. Should it be put
in 4.8?
<PRC> Correct, and this was already raised by Dan in his review and it
has been moved to 4.8 already.

2.  4.8.2/3/4 are running time counters. They are not configurable.
Should they be removed from here?
<PRC> No, these are counters, and I believe they are appropriate in this
section. Yes, they are not configurable.

3.  4.8.8 ReportInterval. Is it a CAPWAP timer? Should it be in 4.7?
This one seems not defined in the state machine transition. Is this for
4.7.14 StatisticsTimer?
<PRC> Yes, this needs to move to section 4.7, and it is referenced in
the Decryption Error Report message element. I have created issue 104 as
an editorial issue.

4. 4.8.9 RetransmitCount. I think it should be called
MaxRetransmitCount. And "This is a monotonically increasing counter"
need to be removed.
<PRC> I'm ok changing the name if people think it provides more clarity.
However, it is a monotonically increasing counter - everytime a packet
is transmitted, a RetransmitCount++ instruction is required.
