Recently I am trying to implement dynamic keying for
protecting RR signals as specified in ha-ipsec-05 draft.
I just need clarification on description of (K) bit in
base spec.

In base spec, Section 6.1.7 says:

I am confused by the last 2 lines.  Going through corresponding part
of base specification and ha-ipsec-05, it seems to me that when the
manual IPsec configuration is used the bit MUST be cleared.
Am I right or missing something?
