Section 4.2.2 says:
M Mandatory, set to one (1)
It should say:
M 0 (Optional)
Notes:
Authority-ID TLV is used only as an Outer TLV (in TEAP/Start) and Section 4.3.1 mandates all Outer TLVs to be marked as optional ("Outer TLVs MUST be marked as optional"). As such, Section 4.2.2 is incorrect in claiming the Authority-ID TLV to use M=1.
