RESULT:	Accept

ACTION:	Add to Security Considerations section:

  	The existence of local links without physical security,
  	such as LANs with attached wireless base stations, means that
  	expecting all local links to be secure enough that normal
  	precautions can be dispensed with is an extremely dangerous
  	practice, which will expose users to considerable risks.

  	Dissent:

  	Keith Moore <[email-masked]>
  	Keith argued for a stronger requirement which discouraged
  	or disallowed automatic configuration on any wireless link.
