Ben,

See inline. If you are ok with these changes, I will go ahead and submit an updated \
version of the draft.

This statement has been further modified to:

For point-to-point key management IKEv2 [RFC5996] provides for
 automated key exchange under a SA and can be used for a comprehensive
 Key Management Protocol (KMP) solution for routers.  IKEv2 can be used
 for both IPsec SAs [RFC4301] and other types of SAs. For example, 
 Fibre Channel SAs  [RFC4595] are currently negotiated with IKEv2. Using
 IKEv2 to negotiate TCP-AO is a possible option.
