Summary:
This document provides simple fixes to the IANA IP Flow Information Export
(IPFIX) registry. It provides a summary of previous work on the fixes. It
updates to ensure a consistent structure when calling an existing IANA registry
and many other updates. Major issues:

Minor issues:

Nits/editorial comments:
In my view the history presented needs to mention that the origin of this work
is RFC 5101  which defines IPFIX protocol between exporting process and
collecting process and the accompanying RFC 5102 defining IPFIX IEs. Running an
idnits on the draft shows many issues. Here is one I want to emphasize: Section
4.1.2 on updates to ipv6ExtensionHeaders Description has this line:
   12, MOB     135      IPv6 mobility [RFC3775]
which needs to be updated with:
   12, MOB     135      IPv6 mobility [RFC6275]

Also maybe all RFC references should be listed as idnits tool indicates.
