Dear all,
My colleague Dr. Panos Trakadas and myself are working on an EC-funded
research project, called VITRO (Virtualized Distributed platform of =
Smart
objects - http://www.vitro-fp7.eu/), which has adopted RPL as the =
primary
routing protocol and we are currently performing some simulations and =
tests.

By monitoring roll, we have noticed that three (sorry if we have missed =
any)
I-D are discussed in the ROLL WG (draft-ietf-roll-minrank-hysteresis-of,
draft-ietf-roll-of0, draft-gnawali-roll-etxof), defining RPL Objective
Functions related to a single routing metric (either hop-count or ETX).

In VITRO, each sensor may be part of many virtual networks (even from
different administrative domains) and must be able to concurrently =
support
multiple user requests even with contradicting QoS characteristics. It =
is
obvious that in=A0such cases, a composite routing metric is of great
importance.

In draft-zahariadis-roll-metrics-composition-00
(http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-zahariadis-roll-metrics-compositio=
n/)
, we aim at specifying the guidelines for designing efficient composite
routing metrics to be applied at RPL routing protocol.
=A0
We would be happy to receive your comments
=A0

Theodore Zahariadis

Hi Theodore:

I'm curious here: you did not explain why you have to build a single =
instance with composite metric as opposed to multiple instances each =
optimized for a certain flow.

In any fashion, you're correct, the OF framework is designed to allow =
you to have a mission specific logic with multiple criteria. We expect, =
though, that each metric you need is propagated separately and is not =
polluted by other metrics. Only the Rank mixes things together, and it =
is your OF's responsibility to define how that happens...

Cheers;

Pascal

Hi Theodore,=20

I found your draft interesting and it gave me some useful guidelines for me=
tric's design.

I've several comments on this :=20

I fail to understand well the "Order Relation" you use in Table 1.
The definition of "metric order relation" given on page 4 doesn't really he=
lped me.
Could you help me understand the Order Relation column in the table?

In this table in particular (Figure 1):=20

	- Could you precise your view of the  Link-Color metric (Why is it in the =
integer domain, why the order relation in "minimum" ?).

	- As far as I understand the Order Relation, it seems that the LQL order r=
elation should not be "maximum" but rather "minimum" (same relation as ETX,=
 excluding the 0 value).


More generally, I would be happy to see in the document some formulas examp=
les for metric computation, or maybe some guidelines.

Some example of metrics composition would also be great (You mention one in=
 your draft with is ETX + RE (remainging Energy). Do you have some idea abo=
ut other set of metric that would be interesting to bind ?

I finally think that it should be worth to add some content about the mecha=
nisms that aim to deal with metric's dynamics (Multi Threshold, EWMA, Low p=
ass Filters, ...). Some of them are mentioned at the end of the rpl metric =
draft.

Best,

C=E9dric.

Hi Pascal,

Thanks for your comments!
Probably our email caused a misunderstanding. It is not a matter of =
single
or multiple instances. Our draft tries to analyze and provide guidelines =
on
the design of proper OF's dealing with more than one routing metrics,
propagated separately and not polluted by other metrics, as you =
correctly
mentioned in your email.

For example:
Consider the case where the construction of a DODAG is based on two =
routing
metrics, namely Hop-Count (HC) and link reliability (LR) (the same also
holds for e.g. the pair of ETX and link-color), carried separately =
within
DAG Metric Container Object of the DIO message. HC is aggregated along =
the
path (C=3D0, O=3D0, A=3D0x00, R=3D0), while the LR is recorded along the =
path (C=3D0,
O=3D0, A=3D0x02, R=3D1).Furthermore, consider that node A receives DIO =
messages
from nodes B and C (being potential parents of node A). The pair of (HC, =
LR)
values advertized by nodes B and C are (3, 4) and (4, 2), respectively.

In the case that only the HC value is taken into account for parent
selection and Rank evaluation, then the selection of node A parent =
easily
leads to node B (node A Rank =3D 3).
On the contrary, if the LR value is considered, then node A will select =
node
C as its parent (node A Rank =3D 2).=20

Of course the answer here could be: "Based on the application I would =
select
either HC or LR".
However, in more complex cases e.g. QoS requirement of an optimal path, =
the
selection of a metric may not be trivial.

One OF approach might be: "Each node selects as a parent the node that
advertizes the minimum value of HC and in case that there are two (or =
more)
advertizing the same HC value, then it selects the parent that =
advertizes
the path with the maximum LR." (draft's lexical approach).

Another OF might be: "Combine the pair of HC and LR values in the form =
of:
HC+LR (additive metric composition)". So, node A will select node C as =
its
preferred parent. It can be proved that this OF might lead to a =
construction
of a DODAG where the traversed paths are not optimal!

The intention of our draft is to present the properties that the routing
metrics must hold to assure that the construction of the DODAG (and
consequently the selection of the parent node) leads to optimal and
loop-free paths. So, it deals with OF design as you correctly mentioned =
in
your email: "it is your OF's responsibility to define how that happens".

This idea is not new. There are well-defined routing algebras that set =
the
conditions (routing metric properties) for achieving routing protocol
convergence, optimality and loop-freeness, mainly for Internet routing
protocols. Our goal is to "transfer" these routing metrics properties in
LLN's, providing guidelines for the design of efficient OF's.

Best Regards,
Theodore & Panos

Hi Theodore:

I'm curious here: you did not explain why you have to build a single
instance with composite metric as opposed to multiple instances each
optimized for a certain flow.

In any fashion, you're correct, the OF framework is designed to allow =
you to
have a mission specific logic with multiple criteria. We expect, though,
that each metric you need is propagated separately and is not polluted =
by
other metrics. Only the Rank mixes things together, and it is your OF's
responsibility to define how that happens...

Cheers;

Pascal

Dear Cedric,

We believe that the definition of "order relation" is correct: the order re=
lation is used by the OF to compare link/node weights along the path (equiv=
alently, metric values) and select parent node. As an example, consider the=
 case where the ETX is aggregated along the traversed path. If node A recei=
ves DIO messages from nodes B and C (potential parents) with ETX values of =
2.5 and 3.2, respectively, then the order relation will help selecting node=
 B (advertising the minimum value of ETX) as the parent of node A.
In this concept, your comment is right; the order relation of LQL must be m=
inimum (and not maximum). Please consider it as a typo.

Regarding link-color comment: Apart from being used as a 10-bit flag field =
(e.g. for indicating the encrypted links, as described in rpl-metrics draft=
), link color may be used to indicate the number of nodes along the path tr=
ansmitting at a specific radio channel; in this way interference can be red=
uced by selecting transmission in the "least occupied" channel. In this cas=
e, the order relation must be "minimum" and the domain is integer.

In general, we will re-format Table 1, following the metric description in =
rpl-metrics draft. Also, we will replace words "minimum"/"maximum" in the "=
order relation" column by "less-than" and "greater-than" in accordance to t=
he order relation definition.

Before submitting this draft, there was a discussion on whether we should i=
nclude examples and formulas in this initial version of the document; it se=
ems that our decision was wrong... We will be happy to include examples and=
 formulas to improve readability of this draft.

Finally, we think that "hysteresis" can provably improve RPL performance, a=
nd thus it will be included in this draft. To be honest, there is a "hidden=
" phrase: "...and if the first component values are equal *or differ less t=
han a predefined threshold*..." (section 4.1, first sentence) indicating ou=
r effort to include hysteresis in this draft. We will give more emphasis on=
 that point.

Thanks for your valuable comments,
Panos.

Hi Theodore,=20

I found your draft interesting and it gave me some useful guidelines for me=
tric's design.

I've several comments on this :=20

I fail to understand well the "Order Relation" you use in Table 1.
The definition of "metric order relation" given on page 4 doesn't really he=
lped me.
Could you help me understand the Order Relation column in the table?

In this table in particular (Figure 1):=20

=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0 - Could you precise your view of the=C2=A0 Link-Color me=
tric (Why is it in the integer domain, why the order relation in "minimum" =
?).

=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0 - As far as I understand the Order Relation, it seems th=
at the LQL order relation should not be "maximum" but rather "minimum" (sam=
e relation as ETX, excluding the 0 value).


More generally, I would be happy to see in the document some formulas examp=
les for metric computation, or maybe some guidelines.

Some example of metrics composition would also be great (You mention one in=
 your draft with is ETX + RE (remainging Energy). Do you have some idea abo=
ut other set of metric that would be interesting to bind ?

I finally think that it should be worth to add some content about the mecha=
nisms that aim to deal with metric's dynamics (Multi Threshold, EWMA, Low p=
ass Filters, ...). Some of them are mentioned at the end of the rpl metric =
draft.

Best,

C=C3=A9dric.

 if the first component values are equal *or differ less than a predefined =
threshold*..." (section 4.1, first sentence) indicating our effort to inclu=
de hysteresis in this draft. We will give more emphasis on that point.<BR><=

I been through the archived mailing list, but did not find an answer to 
the following question:

What destination address should be used in the outer header of a tunnel 
when a router needs to add a RPL HbH option on behalf of a non-RPL aware 
leaf node? There are three possibles I can see:
[a]. Use the address of the root node.
[b]. Use the destination address of the original IPv6 header.
[c]. Use the address of your RPL parent.

After some experimentation, I found that both [a] and [b] have issues 
depending on the final destination (the destination of the original 
datagram). I had thought of [c] as a solution, but quickly realized it 
was a bad idea.

Problem 1: Final destination is inside the RPL domain and [a] is used.
---------
For any destination in the RPL domain, the datagram is always sent to 
the root node even when the path to the root includes a node having the 
final destination address or a matching routing entry. This seems 
inefficient at best. Particularly when used in a storing-mode RPL network.

Problem 2: Final destination address is outside the RPL domain via the 
BR and [b] is used.
---------
The BR will not decapsulate, because the destination address of the 
datagram is not one of the BRs addresses (i.e. the datagram is not meant 
for it but some other destination). This means the BR will just forward 
the datagram to the next-hop outside the RPL domain. The final 
destination is not a tunnel exit-point so it then sends a "Parameter 
Problem" message with code=1 back to the source (i.e. the entry-point of 
the tunnel).

Problem 3: [c] is used.
--------
Decapsulation and encapsulation of the original datagram would be 
required at every upward hop within the RPL network.


Solution 1: Use [a] or [b]  depending on whether the final destination 
is outside or inside the RPL domain.
-------
How does a router know whether a destination is inside or outside the 
RPL domain?


Solution 2: Always use [b], but BRs strip off the outer header if 
forwarding outside the RPL domain or forwarding using source-routing 
inside the RPL domain.
-------
This is a simple approach, but perhaps a little ugly. The forwarding 
logic in the BR needs to look past the first IPv6 header to see if it's 
a tunneled packet. If it is tunneled, the outer header is stripped off 
and the original datagram is forwarded.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
DISCUSS:
----------------------------------------------------------------------

1. I would like to discuss the interoperability and deployability of
nodes in a RPL Instance that uses OF0.  If I understand section 4.1
correctly, a node is free to compute step-of-rank using any method it
chooses.  There is a suggestion that using link properties for the
computation is preferred, but the specific link properties and the
method of computation are not specified.  Later, section 4.1 defines
two parameters, rank_factor and stretch_factor, that modify
step_of_rank to generate a "stretched step_of_rank".  The latter value
is then multiplied by the MinHopRankIncrease to compute the node's
rank_increase.

My concern is the degrees of freedom provided to the implementation in
the computation of rank_increase.  I'm hoping I can get an explanation
of some reason to believe that independent implementations, using
different methods to compute step_of_rank and potentially different
configured values for rank_factor and stretch_factor, will
interoperate successfully to form an operational network.

More specifically, if a simple metric that leads to a hop-count
computation for path lengths and route computation is know to yield
unusable performance, why is it not required that a node use some sort
of computation based on link characteristics?  And, if the computation
of the step_factor is entirely up to the node, why are the rank_factor
and stretch_factor needed?  Why not just leave the entire computation
to the implementation, with limitations that the resulting step_factor
lie in the range MINIMUM_STEP_OF_RANK and MAXIMUM_STEP_OF_RANK?

2. I would also like to discuss the requirement for a
mandatory-to-implement OF, whether OF0 is that mandatory-to-implement
OF and where the requirement to implement OF0 is specified.

3. In section 7.1, why is support of the DODAG Configuration option
only a SHOULD?

   An OF0 implementation SHOULD support the DODAG Configuration option
   as specified in section 6.7.6 of [I-D.ietf-roll-rpl] and apply the
   parameters contained therein.

4. This point is more editorial than completely technical, but I list
it as a Discuss because of the potential for confusion among
implementors.  I found the use of "DODAG Version" a little confusing,
because it appears sometimes to mean one of the successive Versions of
one DODAG and at other times to mean a specific DODAG chosen from
several DODAGs.  For example, from the Introduction:

   RPL forms Directed Acyclic Graphs (DAGs) as collections of
   Destination Oriented DAGs (DODAGs) within instances of the protocol.
   Each instance is associated with a specialized Objective Function.  A
   DODAG is periodically reconstructed as a new DODAG Version to enable
   a global reoptimization of the graph.

   An instance of RPL running on a device uses an Objective Function to
   help it determine which DODAG Version it should join.  The OF is also
   used by the RPL instance to select a number of routers within the
   DODAG Version to serve as parents or as feasible successors.

In my opinion, the first use of "DODAG Version" refers to a sucessive
Version of one DODAG, while the second use refers to a selection of
one DODAG from many DODAGs.  Would it be possible to just use "DODAG"
for the second intended use?  Or am I confused about the intended
meanings?

5. In section 4.2.1, what does it mean to "validate a router"?  Why
would a router that passes validation ("succeeded that validation
process") only be "preferable"?



----------------------------------------------------------------------
COMMENT:
----------------------------------------------------------------------


1. I consider the following comment to be a technical rather than an
editorial suggestion because of the redundancy and potential conflict
between the text in the Introduction of this document and the contents
of draft-ietf-roll-rpl-19.  It would improve the document to edit the
Introduction down to a paragrpah that combines the following sentence
from the first paragraph with the content from the last paragraph:

   An Objective Function
   defines how a RPL node selects and optimizes routes within a RPL
   Instance based on the information objects available.

Editing out the text describing RPL would also presumably address
Stewart's Discuss about the use of multiple OFs in one RPL Instance.

2. I don't understand this phrase from the last paragraph of the
Introduction:

   [...] OF0 enforces normalized values for the rank_increase of a
   normal link and its acceptable range

Do I have it right that a node uses OF0 to determine the rank_increase
for a successor within the range:

   MINIMUM_STEP_OF_RANK < stretched step_of_rank < MAXIMUM_STEP_OF_RANK

Unless I'm missing something, these limits on the stretched
step_of_rank enforce (indirectly) a range on rank_increase, but don't
normalize rank_increase by some normalizing factor.

3. Is there a reason to switch between "successor" and "parent"
throughout the document?  For example, the title of section 4.2 is
"Feasible Successors Selection" and the title of the immediately
following section 4.2.1 is "Selection Of The Preferred Parent".  Are
"successor" and "parent" are synonymous in this context?  Would it be
asking for foolish consistency to choose one or the other?

4. In section 7.1, what is "build-time"?

   At build-time [...]

Also in section 7.1, what is a "fixed constant" (as opposed to any
other kind of "constant").  Why are overridden values - I assume these
are overriden by some administrative method like CLI configuration or
some management protocol? - only applied at the next Version of the
DODAG?

5. In section 3, how is "good enough" defined?  From reading the rest
of the spec, I don't see where any assessment of quality is applied to
ensure that "good enough" is more than basic connectivity.  I suggest
just dropping "good enough".

Hello Ralph;

If that's what it takes, so be it. The drawback of removing such text as
opposed to making it more clear is that more and more people will
interpret as Stewart did that mixing OFs could create loops.

This was in fact an arbitrary decision by the WG to keep things simple
and guarantee a global optimization. This also constrains RPL more than
actually needed and we might end up blocking deployments that the group
did not foresee at the time.

My original "bubbles" work allowed to mix plugins - which RPL dubbed OFs
later -, and this allowed deployments like cars from different car
makers in a parking lot having different goals yet forming a DAG. Loops
will not form, but the cars will not necessarily get the connectivity
they expect.

Cheers,

Pascal

I think, it refers to rpl-19 section 3.2.3, to the "authenticated" mode.
This mode is completely unworkable with asymmetric crypto.   I guess I
need to write an ID that explains this better.

The reason why an authenticated router is only preferred is because the
node might need to get online in order to actually validate things.  Any
node which will pass enough traffic so that a new node can validate some
certificate chain is good enough.=20=20

While a new node can do all manner of DOS attacks to prevent the
prospective node from validating some security properties, none of them
(if you trust your crypto) are worse than having the prospective node
find itself without any network.

I think the issue is sufficiently clarified in the RPL spec and need not =

Do I have it right, then, that OF0 sidesteps the WG decision for a =
single OF throughout a RPL Instance by allowing each node to compute its =
rank increase using whatever mechanism it chooses?

I know the document has gone through last call but I don't think I saw =
that this specific point was discussed.

If it is the case that OF0 allows each node to choose its own =
computation, why not simplify the OF0 spec to state "OF0 allows a node =
to choose any value for rank_increase, subject to the specified =
constraints" , along with whatever constraints are required on the value =
of the rank increase to ensure loop-free operation?  Those constraints =
may already exist in the RPL spec, in which case the OF0 spec can simply =
cite a reference to the constraints in the RPL spec.

But "not necessarily get the connectivity they expect" doesn't sound =
like a particularly useful characteristic of an OF ... especially if =
node A uses OFi, expecting one kind of connectivity, and node B uses =
OFj, optimizing for a different kind of connectivity, and A has no way =
to know what OF B is using.  How can A make any informed choice about =
what RPL Instance to join?

[Pascal] Fine then.
I think what you're pointing out is compatible with Stewart's proposed
change.

>=20
[Pascal] I do not think so. The spirit of the law is conserved.
There is room in OF0  for implementation to bring in some variations.
This is needed because OF0 may make different computations of different
links.
But the variations are normalized from excellent (1) to worst acceptable
(9) with normal (3) in the middle.
That, plus the fact that the Goal (G) is specified, makes it so that OF0
stays within the spirit of a single OF.

that

>=20
[Pascal] It was, at least with Phil Levis.=20

>=20
[Pascal] This is looser than what OF0 does.=20
OF0 ranks the step of rank from 0 to 9 based on implementation
preference but an average like should be 3.
The rest of the computation (G bit, rank factor) is imposed by OF0.

[Pascal] Exactly. Different OFs provide loop avoidance but no other
guarantee.=20
Further guidance might relate different OFs that share a same goal in
which case we'd get something workable.
That is barred in RPL so there is no point discussing it in OF0.=20
I'd like to convey somewhere why we made that decision, what the
consequences are, etc...
and in particular that it is not to avoid loops. But OF0 is probably not
the right place for that...

I'll answer all the other points separately.

Hi Ralph;

I agree with you that this text would benefit from being more specific.
RPL requires a number of validations to happen. A deployment might
require additional policies, and use for instance L2 crypto to enforce
them. So validating a router involves security concerns, like link
access, and/or RPL security as Michael indicates. Additionally, RPL
section 13 requires a continuous link quality validation. So this refers
but is not limited to RPL sections 3.2.3 and 13.

Suggestion:

2.   An implementation SHOULD validate a router prior to selecting it
        as preferred.  This validation process is implementation and
        link type dependent, and is out of scope.  A router that
        succeeded that validation process is preferable.

[Pascal] Success is defined as reaching the Goal (a set of nodes or the
Internet), using the best links possible.
OF0 does not guarantee a particular optimization for a certain metric,
but trusts the implementation to rank a usable link from 1 to 9.
Section 6.2 indicates that , rank_factor and stretch_of_rank are
configured parameters.
Maybe section 7.1 should indicate that a deployment should ensure they
are homogeneous?

[Pascal] this is RECOMMENDED for links such as radio in section 4.1.
But RPL (and OF0) also apply to other links, including 802.3 and 802.11.
If you have a switched fabric as backbone, hop count or similar is
appropriate there.

[Pascal] There is only one factor, the rank_factor. It is used to
discriminate different link types.
Eg in homenet, 802.15.4 could have a huge rank_factor (3 or 4), a WIFI
would use say 2 and G/
Ethernet 1.=20

This is a parameter that must be configured the same for all nodes for a
given type of link and it has a consequent action on the rank_increase
regardless of implementation.

The result is that the topology OF0 builds can be deployed so as to
limit the wireless hops, and favor .11 over .15.4.
 I think that is what you are really asking for and thus we are probably
on the same line.

What do you think?

After reading through the mailing list threads on OF0, I have a couple =
of questions about the applicability of and use cases for OF0.

OF0, when it generates a rank_increase based on hop count, is =
characterized as inappropriate for wireless meshes.  I wonder if =
"wireless" is really the right descriptive term here.  More generally, a =
hop count metric is inappropriate for subnets composed of links in which =
a route with a higher hop count might perform better than a router with =
a lower hop count.  Such subnets can be either wireless or wired; for =
example, as I understand the technology, it's possible for an IEEE1901.2 =
network to exhibit connectivity and transmission quality characteristics =
for which a route through more higher quality hops might be better than =
a router through fewer lower quality hops.

I'm also confused about some of the use cases for RPL.  Is there a use =
case in which RPL would be used in a non-LLN environment in place of =
other routing protocols like RIP, OSPF and ISIS?

- Ralph

[Pascal] You're correct.
OF0 does not know the type of link it can be applied to so it leaves the
computation of the step_of_rank to the implementation that knows better.

[Pascal] RPL is a DV routing protocol. It has the pros and cons of its
family. But yes, it could apply in many places. It is a matter of
network engineering to select the most adapted tool for a given
situation, knowing that:
-As opposed to the classical bunch, it does not compute the optimal end
to end path for all nodes.=20
-RPL does not try to fix any broken situation as soon as it occurs.=20
-RPL requires looking inside the packets for datapath validation, and
RPL adds a (set of) L3 "VLANs" we call instances

 If you look at it, a spanning tree is not much different, just a lot
simpler (just a tree, no TTL).
So in a situation where a (mesh_under) spanning tree is used today a
(route_over) RPL solution could actually provide a positive replacement.
Benefits would be:
- no risk of meltdown (that's TTL for you) thus faster convergence.
- end to end IP (that's route_over vs. mesh_under)
- multipath ( that's coming from RPL's DAG)
- Goal (the root is picked at a sensible place)

Another example: If you have a number of access points at home, and you
want to mesh them, then the link quality is asserted by the association
process so hop count could work. You'll note that with hop count, a cost
is traditionally associated to link speed and that would apply too since
WIFI reduces the link speed to maintain the link quality. This is a case
where RPL could easily replace a proprietary mesh technology, either
using (hop count, line speed), something a bit fancier, like ETX, or
something more proprietary if that can provide a market advantage. OF0
will allow all those to interoperate and you'll get a DAG that reaches
the goal, if that's possible at all.

Cheers,

Pascal

I like solution [2].  The rules are simpler on the router node.  When using=
 6LowPAN compression, the overhead for using a tunnel is about three bytes =
rather than five.  All the router nodes on the way up need to look past the=
 outer IP header to get to the hop by hop header to adjust the rank, so I d=
on't think it's too bad that the root node also needs to look past the oute=
r header in order to strip out the outer header and hop by hop header befor=
e passing up.  The root node doesn't need to look into or past the inner he=
ader.

In Zigbee, we always route off network through the root node and form a sep=
arate DAG for each off network connection in a LowPAN.  If it is possible f=
or a single DAG to have multiple off network connections through multiple r=
outer nodes, a modified solution [1] may be the better choice.  The hop by =
hop header would use the destination address of the router where the packet=
 will go off the network.  I don't know how the routers would learn which n=
odes perform the off network connection for which prefixes.  This (and othe=
r) reasons may make it impractical to ever route off network through any no=
de but the root.

Regards,

Daniel.

Subject: [Roll] IP-in-IP tunneling for HbH Option


I been through the archived mailing list, but did not find an answer to=20
the following question:

What destination address should be used in the outer header of a tunnel=20
when a router needs to add a RPL HbH option on behalf of a non-RPL aware=20
leaf node? There are three possibles I can see:
[a]. Use the address of the root node.
[b]. Use the destination address of the original IPv6 header.
[c]. Use the address of your RPL parent.

After some experimentation, I found that both [a] and [b] have issues=20
depending on the final destination (the destination of the original=20
datagram). I had thought of [c] as a solution, but quickly realized it=20
was a bad idea.

Problem 1: Final destination is inside the RPL domain and [a] is used.
---------
For any destination in the RPL domain, the datagram is always sent to=20
the root node even when the path to the root includes a node having the=20
final destination address or a matching routing entry. This seems=20
inefficient at best. Particularly when used in a storing-mode RPL network.

Problem 2: Final destination address is outside the RPL domain via the=20
BR and [b] is used.
---------
The BR will not decapsulate, because the destination address of the=20
datagram is not one of the BRs addresses (i.e. the datagram is not meant=20
for it but some other destination). This means the BR will just forward=20
the datagram to the next-hop outside the RPL domain. The final=20
destination is not a tunnel exit-point so it then sends a "Parameter=20
Problem" message with code=3D1 back to the source (i.e. the entry-point of=
=20
the tunnel).

Problem 3: [c] is used.
--------
Decapsulation and encapsulation of the original datagram would be=20
required at every upward hop within the RPL network.


Solution 1: Use [a] or [b]  depending on whether the final destination=20
is outside or inside the RPL domain.
-------
How does a router know whether a destination is inside or outside the=20
RPL domain?


Solution 2: Always use [b], but BRs strip off the outer header if=20
forwarding outside the RPL domain or forwarding using source-routing=20
inside the RPL domain.
-------
This is a simple approach, but perhaps a little ugly. The forwarding=20
logic in the BR needs to look past the first IPv6 header to see if it's=20
a tunneled packet. If it is tunneled, the outer header is stripped off=20
and the original datagram is forwarded.

RPL fills a different niche than RIP/OSPF/ISIS.  RIP/OSPF primarily is
about connecting broadcast subnets together.  While you can inject
/32s(/128s) into OSPF, and maybe you can do this for RIPv2 (I never
tried), it's not really the problem space that they were designed for.

RPL really provides a replacement in some sense for layer-2 STP, doing
the work at layer-3, and optimizing it for the case of not much
bandwidth, and also for limited broadcast/multicast availability.
If power and bandwidth were free, one could imagine using things like
MSTP, and indeed there are things like 802.1s which do this at layer 2.

The key thing is that the LLN wants to be a single subnet, not a series
of layer-3 subnets which are tied together.

The closest thing to RPL in a non-LLN situation today is, I think,
TRILL.  It however, is a layer-3-technology solution to a layer-2
problem, while RPL is a layer-2-technology solution at a layer-3.

But, to answer your direct question, I don't think any of the use
cases written imagine a purely non-LLN network.  Some of them will, I
think, have RPL running over a network in which parts of it are
distinctly not low power or lossy, but that will be only *part* of the
network.=20=20=20

I do not believe, btw, the documented use cases are comprehensive.
The space is very much open, and RPL excites me because it can
potentially bridge many layer-2 technologies.  The use cases represent a
set of requirements from industries that have sufficiently matured to
articulate their problems.=20=20

Should read:

Hi Michael,

I have tried to find your previous comments on the issue of using
symmetric key for authentication but could still not quite understand.
Could you give a summary here before the ID is available?

Thanks,
Tzeta

Hello Michael

I like the text a lot : ) and deeply agree for the most part.

Please note that RPL is not limited to intra-subnet though it has
special methods for that case.
RPL can also route between subnets/aggregations, which is actually a
simpler case.=20
For instance, this can be used between mobile routers for nested NEMO
route optimization.

The key things are rather:
- the shape of network RPL builds with the concept of root that plays a
major role. RPL builds an edge network, as opposed to incumbent IGPs
that build a core with any-to-any optimization.
- the metrics (RPL is a lot richer than incumbents).
- the instances (RPL allows routing and forwarding along multiple
topologies)

The edge used to be the PC to router like. In a home network that was a
PC with a modem. Now it's getting a lot more than that as the HOMENET
people are figuring out at this very moment.=20

Cheers,

Pascal

Hi Daniel

> I like solution [2].
As do I,  for simplicity and efficiency sake.


>   All the router nodes on the way up need to look past the outer IP header to get to the hop by hop header to adjust the rank, ...
Not so. An intermediate router never looks past the outer header, unless 
the destination address in the outer header is one of its own. Solution 
2 would bend that rule, but only at the BR. The reason tunneling is used 
for the upward path is to add the RPL HbH option if one was not already 
present in the original packet. Think of a host sending a packet to it's 
default router (a RPL aware router): The host knows nothing about RPL 
and, therefore, can't add a RPL HbH option. In order for the router to 
forward the packet in the RPL network, it must add the HbH option. 
Tunneling allows it to do that without modifying the original packet. It 
also means that a forwarding error within the RPL network, for that 
packet, will be sent back to the router and not the host, since the 
source address of the outer header is the address of the router. The 
router would, thus, have a chance to act on the error (e.g re-parent or 
reset the trickle timer).

Hi all

I would like to solicit comments from the working group regarding the RPL message compression format specified in draft-goyal-roll-rpl-compression. I would like to know what are the perceived shortcomings of the draft that we could address.

Regards
Mukul

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts director=
ies. This draft is a work item of the Routing Over Low power and Lossy netw=
orks Working Group of the IETF.

	Title           : RPL Objective Function Zero
	Author(s)       : Pascal Thubert
	Filename        : draft-ietf-roll-of0-16.txt
	Pages           : 13
	Date            : 2011-08-22

   The Routing Protocol for Low Power and Lossy Networks (RPL)
   specification defines a generic Distance Vector protocol that is
   adapted to a variety of networks types by the application of specific
   Objective Functions.  An Objective Function defines how a RPL node
   selects and optimizes routes within a RPL Instance based on the
   information objects available.  This document specifies a basic
   Objective Function that relies only on the objects that are defined
   in RPL and does not use any extension.

All of the requirements statements are Informational; why is an =
applicability statement (which is for the most part a post-factor =
analysis of whether something meets the space's requirements) Standards =
Track?

This was discussed by the IESG but I do not have a strong preference =
quite frankly and our charter was originally "informational".
Adrian, what is your take ?

As the Applicability Statement lists what parts of the protocol are
requires for a particular environment, if it isn't standards track, then
*technically*, it won't be pass NAFTA Article 10.06, and so governments
won't be able to procure it properly.

In practice, the NAFTA tribunal thinks that all RFCs are STDs, but
that's not something we should encourage.

   The Routing Protocol for Low Power and Lossy Networks (RPL)
   specification defines a generic Distance Vector protocol that is
   adapted to a variety of networks types by the application of specific
   Objective Functions (OFs).  An OF states the outcome of the process
   used by a RPL node to select and optimize routes within a RPL
   Instance based on the information objects available; an OF is not an
   algorithm.

   This document specifies a basic Objective Function that relies only
   on the objects that are defined in RPL and does not use any protocol
   extension

Hello Jari,

sorry for the late reply but as you know, summer time is not the best
period for being reactive.

Thank you very much for this description of the situation in Finland.
I had never heard about that case

However, from my own experience, even if some deployments allow
relying on power for Water and Gas meters, I believe that in many
other cases power is not available for those meters.

This being said, we can consider two cases: another network is available or not.

If another network is available (we assume it runs RPL), it seems a
good idea that W/G meters uses it if possible (cf. DSMR in Netherlands
or OMS in Germany for instance).

If not, it is possible that a dedicated infrastructure is deployed for
these fluids (there are some studies today in several European
countries for deployments in the next years). This infrastructure
might be mains powered or not and it makes sense to study how RPL
could apply in this case.

In all cases, it would be interesting that all the nodes (even those
behaving as leaf nodes) know about RPL for having the ability to
choose the best or at least a good enough route.

Would you agree?

I agree that different methods allow building metering networks. A lot
of AMI networks are already deployed today with both star (one-hop)
and mesh (multi-hop) topologies, depending on the capabilities of the
underlying technology.

However, the use RPL only makes sense in a mesh architecture.

What we intend to do as authors (we have discussed this particular
point) is to add a short introduction clarifying the scope of the
document. It must be stated somewhere that different architecture
could fit the requirements of AMI deployments and that the document
describes how RPL can be used for this purpose in the case where
multi-hop mesh architecture is used only.

What do you think?

Thank you,

Nicolas.

Dear WG,

draft-goyal-roll-rpl-compression was discussed during the last ROLL WG =
meeting in Quebec, but
as usual we confirm on the mailing list. Are in favor of adopting this =
document as a WG document ?
Please reply on the mailing list.

Thanks.

JP.=

Hello Bora,

2011/7/29 Akyol, Bora A <bora@pnnl.gov>:

I agree that all utilities are not looking into it.
However this is one possible case that should be considered, isn't it?
Could you please precise what you are expecting to be in the draft?

On our point of view, Gas and Water metering are part of AMI.
Could you please elaborate?
According to you, why should Gas and Water be removed from the draft?

Thank you in advance,

Nicolas.

All,

Let me reiterate what I said at the Quebec meeting at the microphone: I =
find it incomprehensible if - before the ink is dry on the RPL RFC and =
before an RFC number has even been assigned to the specification - the =
working group finds it necessary to invent a "compression mechanism" for =
RPL.=20

After all, RPL was supposed to have been designed for networks with =
(among other characteristics) a small MTU.

If this document is necessary, then the logical conclusion would have to =
be that the initial design of (at least) the packet format of RPL was =
insufficient, and that therefore this document should either or both of =
"Updates/Obsoletes" RPL?

If this document is not intended to either or both of =
"Updates/Obsoletes" RPL, then I do not see any justification for the =
document being adopted.

Respectfully Yours,

Thomas

Hi Thomas,

I don't know about all the L2 technologies and all the applications that are
intended to be used in conjunction with RPL. It's not my concern, but I
suppose some of them may not need the compression scheme proposed in
draft-goyal-roll-rpl-compression? It's not for me to say.

All I know is that for the scenarios we target using P2P, we need a
compression scheme. draft-goyal-roll-rpl-compression thus proposes a
compression scheme tailored for this purpose.

If others also need a compression scheme for other purposes, let it be
known, and let's try to work on merging our requirements in the working
group document to be.

cheers,

Emmanuel

Just chiming in since this is a procedural comment as opposed to =
technical, the WG will voice his opinion.

When a protocol is designed and the RFC has been approved, there is =
nothing that prevents WG to make
additions to it (isn't it what we are doing with pretty much all =
protocols ?). When you invent a new TLV for=20
ISIS, you do not need to obsolete it ! Especially when the extension is =
NOT mandatory but optional =85=20
Just clarifying for the rest of the group.

Thanks.

JP.

Hello

This was discussed many times in the ML and the point was always to make =
compression a separate spec to be implemented optionally for such types =
of LLNs that would require it.
It is good that the work has now started and I support it.

Hi Emmanuel, Thomas,

One case where we do not necessarily need compression is the use of the new=
 IEEE 802.15.4 amendments, specifically designed for smart grids. 802.15.4g=
 is a PHY Layer for Smart Utility Networks and 802.15.4e, a new MAC sub-lay=
er that among others functionalities provide support for a 4g PHY layer.  F=
or information, 4g PHY amendment mandates the support of IPv6 MTU.

Regards,
Daniel

Hi Thomas,

I don't know about all the L2 technologies and all the applications that ar=
e intended to be used in conjunction with RPL. It's not my concern, but I s=
uppose some of them may not need the compression scheme proposed in draft-g=
oyal-roll-rpl-compression? It's not for me to say.

All I know is that for the scenarios we target using P2P, we need a compres=
sion scheme. draft-goyal-roll-rpl-compression thus proposes a compression s=
cheme tailored for this purpose.

If others also need a compression scheme for other purposes, let it be know=
n, and let's try to work on merging our requirements in the working group d=
ocument to be.

cheers,

Emmanuel

I am afraid I dont agree with your reasoning. Our draft specifies an optimization over the core spec. In many situations, you need this optimization and in many others you dont.

All,

Let me reiterate what I said at the Quebec meeting at the microphone: I find it incomprehensible if - before the ink is dry on the RPL RFC and before an RFC number has even been assigned to the specification - the working group finds it necessary to invent a "compression mechanism" for RPL. 

After all, RPL was supposed to have been designed for networks with (among other characteristics) a small MTU.

If this document is necessary, then the logical conclusion would have to be that the initial design of (at least) the packet format of RPL was insufficient, and that therefore this document should either or both of "Updates/Obsoletes" RPL?

If this document is not intended to either or both of "Updates/Obsoletes" RPL, then I do not see any justification for the document being adopted.

Respectfully Yours,

Thomas

I think the draft should be focusing on the applicability of ROLL from a
technical front
without siting this one case as the only justification.

This is not the widely-held view at least within the US electric utility
community.
The gas and water meters have capabilities which are quite different from
electric power meters.
For example, while the electric meter has easy access to mains power, the
gas/water meters don't.
In most instances, the gas/water service may be provided by a completely
different entity than the electric
power utility.

At least within the US NIST SGIP CSWG, the gas/water meters and AMI
backhaul were considered out of scope.

Would the document lose technical integrity if the gas/water meter were
either removed or included as an optional.

Regards

I am in favour of persuing work to accomodate compression, but the work
in goyal-roll-rpl-compression is not compression, it's a reduced scope,
non-extensible version of RPL.

I totally agree with Emmanuel. As I mentioned before, the compression mecha=
nism is required in some application scenarios (e.g. in P2P routing where D=
IOs need to carry the Route Discovery Option additionally). The compression=
 mechanism may not be required for many L2 technologies (with larger MAC pa=
yloads) or for many application scenarios (where DIOs do not carry many opt=
ions).

Thanks

Michael

I was wondering if you have the compression scheme described in draft-bormann-6lowpan-ghc in mind. I guess it will be useful to compare the compression achieved using the two schemes for the two examples described in draft-goyal-roll-rpl-compression. I think that compression achieved with draft-bormann scheme would vary with the actual byte stream contained in the packet. There is ofcourse no such dependency in case of our scheme. 

Thanks
Mukul

I am in favour of persuing work to accomodate compression, but the work
in goyal-roll-rpl-compression is not compression, it's a reduced scope,
non-extensible version of RPL.

Actually AMI backhaul for gas and water meters is very much in scope as per=
 the NIST Wireless Guidelines (PAP2) work and the related SG-Communications=
/SG-Net work.  CSWG coordinates with the PAPs so they should be aware of th=
is.  =20

I think the draft should be focusing on the applicability of ROLL from a
technical front
without siting this one case as the only justification.

This is not the widely-held view at least within the US electric utility
community.
The gas and water meters have capabilities which are quite different from
electric power meters.
For example, while the electric meter has easy access to mains power, the
gas/water meters don't.
In most instances, the gas/water service may be provided by a completely
different entity than the electric
power utility.

At least within the US NIST SGIP CSWG, the gas/water meters and AMI
backhaul were considered out of scope.

Would the document lose technical integrity if the gas/water meter were
either removed or included as an optional.

yes, but the goyal-roll-rpl-compression (GRRC from now on, okay?) scheme
will result in devices that support the compressed format only,
essentially creating an entirely new protocol. 

6lowpan-ghc applies things as a layered approach, which means that after
decompression, you still need a full RPL packet parser, which means that
the RPL protocol can in fact evolve.

goyal-roll-rpl-compression (GRRC) scheme will have to be revised each time
there is an addition to the protocol, and will cause a flag day, as no
node can use the new options until every node is upgraded, even if the
nodes do not need to make use of the new options.

In essence, the goyal-roll-rpl-compression is a fixed proprietary
system.

I agree with Michael's concern that using GRRC could lead to
non-interoperable implementations, with some nodes "speaking" normal RPL,
some using GRRC. That might require some additional negotiation between
nodes, or worse, could lead to non-interoperable parts of the network. That
worries me.

This is not true. Compressed messages will have new code values. I quote the relevant text from the draft:

"Code: The Code value of the compressed version of an RPL ICMPv6
      message is obtained by setting the 7th bit in the Code value
      associated with the corresponding uncompressed message.  For
      example, the Code associated with a compressed DODAG Information
      Object is 0x40."


>6lowpan-ghc applies things as a layered approach, which means that after
>decompression, you still need a full RPL packet parser, which means that
>the RPL protocol can in fact evolve.

I am not doubting that. I guess the important question to answer is whether the ghc scheme would provide enough compression. Or the devices with ghc would have to implement additional compression mechanisms (e.g. draft-goyal....) as well?

>goyal-roll-rpl-compression (GRRC) scheme will have to be revised each time
>there is an addition to the protocol,

Again not true. Any new additions to the protocol DO NOT require their compressed formats to be specified as well. One could ofcourse define compressed formats (or define only the compressed formats) if they are deemed useful. But it is not mandatory to do so.

> and will cause a flag day, as no

Simply not true.

>In essence, the goyal-roll-rpl-compression is a fixed proprietary system.

I am sorry but this is totally wrong characterization.

Thanks

By the same logic, you would argue that P2P-RPL would lead to non-interoper=
able implementations since some devices would speak P2P-RPL and others wont=
.

Please realize that the compressed objects have different code values than =
regular objects. Hence there is no danger of lack of interoperability.

Thanks

By the same logic, you would argue that P2P-RPL would lead to non-interoper=

I agree with Michael's concern that using GRRC could lead to non-interopera=

Yes, I indeed do argue the same way. Adding ever more companion documents to
RPL makes it more and more difficult to guarantee interoperable
implementations. But that's another topic.

I agree with Michael's concern that using GRRC could lead to non-interopera=
ble implementations, with some nodes "speaking" normal RPL, some using GRRC=
. That might require some additional negotiation between nodes, or worse, c=
ould lead to non-interoperable parts of the network. That worries me.=20

yes, but:

     2) will including the new extensions, uncompressed, blow the MTU,
     and so nobody will ever turn them on?

okay. I will re-read the document.  I admit that I read it quickly as
you presented in July, and your presentation worried me.

1) So, how does a sending node know that all of recipients know about the
   compression of the current options?

2) How does a sending know that all of the recipients know about any new
   compressed option fields?

Let me give an example: a node, "speaking" only uncompressed RPL messages,
joins the network. It needs to get the DODAG Configuration Option. Now the
other nodes (inclusive the root node) use the compressed RPL messages. How
can the new node get the required information then?

Similarly, what happens if that "classic" RPL node receives a compressed DIO
message? Yes, the message has a different code, and thus would not be parsed
by the node. Therefore, this node is excluded from network operation.

I would also like to repeat my question I raised during the ROLL meeting: If
we know now how to compress messages much better, why don't we update the
RPL specification, instead of adding new message / option types in
additional drafts?

I understand that you are arguing in favor of the ghc scheme. But the key question is whether we can depend on the ghc scheme alone to give us enough compression.

>     2) will including the new extensions, uncompressed, blow the MTU,
     and so nobody will ever turn them on?

Not sure how such concerns constitute an argument against draft-goyal or in favor of your contention that every new extension would require their compressed formats to be defined. Compressed formats would be defined where they are deemed useful.

>1) So, how does a sending node know that all of recipients know about the

A compressed option has a different option type than its regular version. By looking at the option type, a node would know whether it is compressed or not.

>2) How does a sending know that all of the recipients know about any new
>   compressed option fields?

The sending node does not know. The recipient would ignore the options it does not know about (or discard the whole message itself as specified in the core spec). 

I am not sure why the fact that nodes need to know about the compressed objects/options in order to process them is being used as an argument against this draft. RPL nodes would still be able to talk core RPL among themselves irrespective of whether they implement this draft or not. Their existing functionality is not affected. 

Thanks

Ulrich

1. Why would a node transmit only compressed DIOs when it expects its liste=
ners to include those that do not understand compression?=20

Your example seems similar to these:
a) A non-storing node not being able to join a storing mode DAG
b) A node that does not understand RPL security can't join a DAG using secu=
re messages.

2. Assuming that the scenario you described is plausible, a simple DIS flag=
/option can be defined to solve the problem trivially. But ofcourse you wou=
ld then complain about additional complexity.

Thanks

I agree with Michael's concern that using GRRC could lead to non-interopera=

How would it know what its listeners expect? If there is a chance that any
of the nodes in the network does not understand compression (which none of
the other nodes would know), the nodes in the network either all use
uncompressed messages or deprive that node from communicating.

Not only that I don't like that additional DIS flag for the reason you
mentioned (and which has to be specified somewhere), but I also think there
is a difference to the two examples you gave: If an implementation of RPL
does not support one Mode of Operation, this is a design choice; the
implementer knows that his/her implementation does not fully support the RPL
spec, so it is not expected to be fully interoperable. With the compression,
I can have a compliant (i.e. complete) RPL implementation, and it *still*
does not interoperate with all nodes (and I, as implementer, might not even
know about the compression format, since there is no reference to it in the
RPL spec).

OLL WG document<br>
<br>
Let me give an example: a node, &quot;speaking&quot; only uncompressed RPL =
messages, joins the network. It needs to get the DODAG Configuration Option=
. Now the other nodes (inclusive the root node) use the compressed RPL mess=
ages. How can the new node get the required information then?<br>

<br>
Similarly, what happens if that &quot;classic&quot; RPL node receives a com=
pressed DIO message? Yes, the message has a different code, and thus would =
not be parsed by the node. Therefore, this node is excluded from network op=
eration.<br>

<br>
I would also like to repeat my question I raised during the ROLL meeting: I=
f we know now how to compress messages much better, why don&#39;t we update=
 the RPL specification, instead of adding new message / option types in add=
itional drafts?<br>

We are concerned about flag days and incremental deployment of new
features.  These features *INCLUDE* deploying new compressed options.

I agree with Ulrich: if we now know much better about what options are
essential and which ones are not, then let's just revise the spec, and
remove the uncompressed version.  I don't want to write and test the
code twice.=20

I dont quite understand. I no longer wish to use any negative adjective for=
 your argument. I suppose you do not want to see any extension to RPL becau=
se any such extension would cause a "compliant/complete" implementation to =
be not interoperable with others (that include the extension). At the very =

Michael

I understand your preference for GHC scheme. As for our scheme, it seems to me that you would like our scheme much better if there is a way for a node to solicit compressed/uncompressed DIOs. Is my understanding correct? This could be done by a simple DIS flag.

Thanks
Mukul

We are concerned about flag days and incremental deployment of new
features.  These features *INCLUDE* deploying new compressed options.

I agree with Ulrich: if we now know much better about what options are
essential and which ones are not, then let's just revise the spec, and
remove the uncompressed version.  I don't want to write and test the
code twice.

What is compression useful for in that scenario?

Probably, at the end, you will save more energy using uncompressed RPL.

In this case also, either the dissemination will be less efficient for
nodes understanding a single format, or you will transmit more packets
and for this reason there is no convenience in having the compression
at all.

And you will be either less efficient, or introduce redundancy (why
compressing then?).

Yes, but at the end of the day either you don't interoperate, or you
are less efficient, or you produce more traffic using compression
(!!).

Energy-efficiency is probably obtained only if the whole network is
compressing, and in this context I share the thought about pursuing it
as a requirement given the fact that RPL targets LLNs.

Best,
Angelo

Dear all,

Taking into consideration the comments from ROLL WG, Theodore Zahariadis an=
d myself updated the document titled "Design Guidelines for Routing Metrics=
 Composition in LLN".
More specifically:
1. We added a number of explanatory (and interesting) examples, =0Aas Pasca=
l and Cedric asked.
2. Editorial changes (sections reordering, typos, etc) in order to improve =
readability of the document,
3. Figure 1 has been modified, according to =0ACedric comments.

We would appreciate your comments,
Best Regards,

Let's go back.
What's the purpose of compression?

It's so that one can transmit only a single frame, rather than two,
which halves the power consumption, and massively reduces impact of lost
frames.  (If ether frame of a fragment is lost, the entire packet is
lost).

So, creating two DAGs defeats all of this: you have to transmit a
minimum of three frames now.  One might as well have left out the
compressed DAG.

This is the part that I dont understand. Why does our scheme fall apart when a new option is introduced?

Hi Nicolas

Yes, we had a private email exchange off-list.

I would like to suggest alternate wording for this paragraph as follows:

ORIGINAL:

 Electric meters are often interconnected into multi-hop mesh
   networks, each of which is connected to a backhaul network leading to
   the utility network through a network aggregation point (NAP).  These
   kinds of networks increase coverage and reduce installation cost,
   time and complexity, as well as operational costs, as compared to
   single-hop wireless networks, relying on a wireline or cellular
   backhaul.  Each electric meter mesh typically has on the order of
   several thousand wireless endpoints, with densities varying based on
   the area and the terrain.  Apartment buildings in urban centers may
   have hundreds of meters in close proximity, whereas rural areas may
have sparse node distributions and include nodes that only have one   or
two network neighbors.  Paths in the mesh between a network device
   and the nearest aggregation point may be composed of several hops or
   even tens of hops.


ALTERNATE WORDING:


In one type of AMI network, electric meters are interconnected into
multi-hop mesh
networks, each of which is connected to a backhaul network leading to
the utility network through a network aggregation point (NAP).

<remove unsubstantiated assertion regarding cost benefits of multi-hop
mesh>

In a multi-hop mesh network, each electric meter mesh may have up to
several thousand wireless endpoints, with densities varying based on
the area and the terrain. Apartment buildings in urban centers may
have hundreds of meters in close proximity, whereas rural areas may
have sparse node distributions and include nodes that only have one or two
network neighbors.=20

What do you think?

Hello Bora,

The paragraph you cited does not reference anything related to water or gas=
 meters which was the topic of your earlier comment and the discussion that=
 followed.  Is this perhaps not the right paragraph or is this the beginnin=
g of a new discussion?

As far as the benefits of multi-hop networks over wireline or cellular back=
haul, I think that lower cost and deployment complexity are pretty commonly=
 cited.  Do you disagree with this statement?

Thanks, Jorjeta

Hi Jorjeta

Sorry, I had two comments in my original email. One was regarding gas/power=
 meters and the second regarding the non-technical slant in the introductio=
n.
The modified paragraph that I proposed is related to the second point.

To answer your question, I disagree with the unbsubstantiated statement tha=
t multi-hop wireless mesh networks have substantial cost benefits
compared to either powerline or single-hop (e.g. cellular modems) networks.=
=20
I am not saying this is completely wrong, I am saying that this statement d=
oes not belong in an IETF document since it has no relevance to ROLL
or the applicability of ROLL to AMI networks. I think the paragraph I propo=
sed is clear-cut and technically accurate without having a bias towards the=
 use of wireless mesh networks.

Regards

Bora

Hello Bora,

The paragraph you cited does not reference anything related to water or gas=
 meters which was the topic of your earlier comment and the discussion that=
 followed.  Is this perhaps not the right paragraph or is this the beginnin=
g of a new discussion?

As far as the benefits of multi-hop networks over wireline or cellular back=
haul, I think that lower cost and deployment complexity are pretty commonly=
 cited.  Do you disagree with this statement?

Thanks, Jorjeta

Hi Nicolas

Yes, we had a private email exchange off-list.

I would like to suggest alternate wording for this paragraph as follows:

ORIGINAL:

 Electric meters are often interconnected into multi-hop mesh
   networks, each of which is connected to a backhaul network leading to
   the utility network through a network aggregation point (NAP).  These
   kinds of networks increase coverage and reduce installation cost,
   time and complexity, as well as operational costs, as compared to
   single-hop wireless networks, relying on a wireline or cellular
   backhaul.  Each electric meter mesh typically has on the order of
   several thousand wireless endpoints, with densities varying based on
   the area and the terrain.  Apartment buildings in urban centers may
   have hundreds of meters in close proximity, whereas rural areas may
have sparse node distributions and include nodes that only have one   or
two network neighbors.  Paths in the mesh between a network device
   and the nearest aggregation point may be composed of several hops or
   even tens of hops.


ALTERNATE WORDING:


In one type of AMI network, electric meters are interconnected into
multi-hop mesh
networks, each of which is connected to a backhaul network leading to
the utility network through a network aggregation point (NAP).

<remove unsubstantiated assertion regarding cost benefits of multi-hop
mesh>

In a multi-hop mesh network, each electric meter mesh may have up to
several thousand wireless endpoints, with densities varying based on
the area and the terrain. Apartment buildings in urban centers may
have hundreds of meters in close proximity, whereas rural areas may
have sparse node distributions and include nodes that only have one or two
network neighbors.=20
Paths in the mesh between a network device
and the nearest aggregation point may be composed of several hops or
even tens of hops.



What do you think?

Thanks

This was a thorny point during some discussions with the IESG. =
Personally, I do not agree with the outcome of those discussions, as =
documented in this specification, so I actually take the similarity to =
storing/non-storing mode as a red flag as to why this should be avoided.

We have "two RPL protocols" already, mutually non-interoperable:

	o	Storing mode RPL
	o	Non-storing mode RPL

Adding a different message format will give us "four RPL protocols", =
also mutually non-interoperable:

	o	Storing mode stock-RPL
	o	Non-storing mode stock-RPL
	o	Storing mode alternative-message-format-RPL
	o	Non-storing mode alternative-message-format-RPL

Add a P2P/non-P2P axis, and we're up to "eight RPL protocols", also =
mutually non-interoperable.

If all devices in a network come from the same vendor with the same =
firmware, and the network is never changed/reconfigured/extended, then =
it might work OK.

Then again, my big big worry here is the real world, in which a =
deployment will end up with heterogenous equipment from different =
vendors. This sounds like a royal configuration nightmare to get right.

Avoiding this should really be the _main_ design requirement that the WG =
should have been working towards.

Respectfully yours,

Thomas

Well, you effectively define an alternative protocol exchange format, =

Hello Bora,

The text in this paragraph doesn't actually use the word "substantial", and=
 I think you meant "wireline", not "powerline". =20

What would you consider to be a "substantiated" statement of the applicabil=
ity/benefits of mesh networks relative to other deployment paradigms?

Thanks, Jorjeta

Hi Jorjeta

Sorry, I had two comments in my original email. One was regarding gas/power=
 meters and the second regarding the non-technical slant in the introductio=
n.
The modified paragraph that I proposed is related to the second point.

To answer your question, I disagree with the unbsubstantiated statement tha=
t multi-hop wireless mesh networks have substantial cost benefits
compared to either powerline or single-hop (e.g. cellular modems) networks.=
=20
I am not saying this is completely wrong, I am saying that this statement d=
oes not belong in an IETF document since it has no relevance to ROLL
or the applicability of ROLL to AMI networks. I think the paragraph I propo=
sed is clear-cut and technically accurate without having a bias towards the=
 use of wireless mesh networks.

Regards

Bora

Hello Bora,

The paragraph you cited does not reference anything related to water or gas=
 meters which was the topic of your earlier comment and the discussion that=
 followed.  Is this perhaps not the right paragraph or is this the beginnin=
g of a new discussion?

As far as the benefits of multi-hop networks over wireline or cellular back=
haul, I think that lower cost and deployment complexity are pretty commonly=
 cited.  Do you disagree with this statement?

Hi Nicolas

Yes, we had a private email exchange off-list.

I would like to suggest alternate wording for this paragraph as follows:

ORIGINAL:

 Electric meters are often interconnected into multi-hop mesh
   networks, each of which is connected to a backhaul network leading to
   the utility network through a network aggregation point (NAP).  These
   kinds of networks increase coverage and reduce installation cost,
   time and complexity, as well as operational costs, as compared to
   single-hop wireless networks, relying on a wireline or cellular
   backhaul.  Each electric meter mesh typically has on the order of
   several thousand wireless endpoints, with densities varying based on
   the area and the terrain.  Apartment buildings in urban centers may
   have hundreds of meters in close proximity, whereas rural areas may
have sparse node distributions and include nodes that only have one   or
two network neighbors.  Paths in the mesh between a network device
   and the nearest aggregation point may be composed of several hops or
   even tens of hops.


ALTERNATE WORDING:


In one type of AMI network, electric meters are interconnected into
multi-hop mesh
networks, each of which is connected to a backhaul network leading to
the utility network through a network aggregation point (NAP).

<remove unsubstantiated assertion regarding cost benefits of multi-hop
mesh>

In a multi-hop mesh network, each electric meter mesh may have up to
several thousand wireless endpoints, with densities varying based on
the area and the terrain. Apartment buildings in urban centers may
have hundreds of meters in close proximity, whereas rural areas may
have sparse node distributions and include nodes that only have one or two
network neighbors.=20
Paths in the mesh between a network device
and the nearest aggregation point may be composed of several hops or
even tens of hops.



What do you think?

Thanks

Hi Michael:

My take on this work is exactly the same as 6LoWPAN Header Compression. =
You will enable compression if all the devices support it. So you buy =
and deploy devices that support RFC blah and they interoperate. If =
someone comes in with a different compression - or different MAC frames =
for that matter, then that node cannot participate to that specific =
network. So in my mind there is no partial upgrade or mixed scenario. =
And if there was, GHC would not make a difference.

Also, I think that if we change RPL to RPLv2, I will not mind changing =
the compression to compression v2 at the same time, because probably the =
2 RPL versions would not interoperate well.=20

Anyway, I have no religion on the compression method. Probably the =
overall saving is a more important goal than implementation simplicity.  =
>From the GHC draft, it seems that we can expect from 1.2 to 1.9  ratio =
for RPL control packets. OTOH, 6LoWPAN HC+GHC could probably be applied =
to all data packets, and we could probably add some dictionary to =
overcompress 6LowPAN and the RPL headers. If there's a lot more data =
than control, that certainly counts.=20

Cheers,

Pascal

No, I wouldn't like that.   I'd like not to have to write and test two

I will evaluate GHC method, and write a draft this long weekend with my

I would appreciate a PCAP file, otherwise, I'll evaluate only my own.
In particular, I need more examples of metric options.

Hi again,

My point is that this statement adds no value to the document and in my
opinion subtracts value.
The alternate wording I suggested is technical and avoids "markitecture"
type statements.

I meant powerline (as in Aclara TWACS or the newer technologies) which is
essentially a single hop technology.

I believe the cost effectiveness of a particular technology highly depends
on the OPEX as well as the CAPEX,
and customer density. I don't think we should take that on in an IETF
document.

I think that this is somewhat going to the crux of what I was referring =
to when I suggested updates/obsoletes RPL in case this (or, any) =
compression scheme is introduced.

As I understood the original design scope of ROLL, as retained in the =
charter, 802.15.4 was one of the (but, not the only) target L2's. It may =
be that a less verbose message format is required for 802.15.4 than that =
currently proposed in RPL - in fact, we've got some indications from our =
testing that this is the case (even for stock RPL) to avoid =
fragmentation.

However then the working group should fix the problem in RPL by updating =
that specification, rather than propose an alternative, incompatible =
message format as an option which - as Michael has pointed out in this =
and previous messages - necessitating writing/testing multiple different =
parsers, additional signaling to ensure that in a given deployment =

I'm concerned that the WG, so early after (well, before) that RPL is =
published as RFC feels the need to consider such "patches" to the =
protocol.

I would actually argue that RPL and P2P-RPL are two entirely different =
protocols (albeit sharing some commonalities in the overall message =
structure).

There are ways of making multiple routing protocols co-exist on the same =
routers (and in the same network). However I am not sure that it is such =
 a good idea to do so in a LLN.

I've always found it odd that P2P traffic was not supported in RPL -- =
and really, dog-leg routing through a DODAG root and using source =
routing isn't (efficiently) supporting P2P.

In short, I do agree with Ulrich's logic.

Respectfully yours,

Thomas

So, Michael is right in his observation that it is not a "compressed" =
format, but an "alternative" format.

Question: what expressiveness is lost by using the "alternative" GRRC =
format over the verbose stock RPL format? What would be lost, in terms =
of  functionality, by replacing the stock RPL format by GRRC? What =
additional parsing/encoding complexity does GRRC incur over RPL (if any, =
it may also be less complex)?

I always find it preferable to try to educate those I disagree with, =
rather than declaring their opinions as "simply not true". So, while I =
do agree with Michael's ultimate opinion on the alternate RPL message =
format proposed, let me try to do Mukul's job here and educate a bit ;)

Quoting from section 4 of the draft:

  This section defines the compression format for some of the RPL
   options that may be carried inside an RPL control message.  These RPL
   options SHOULD be compressed when carried inside an RPL control
   message compressed in the manner described in this document.  The
   other RPL options, for which a compression format is not specified in
   this document, MUST follow the format in which they are defined when
   carried inside an RPL control message compressed as described in this
   document.


In other words, the draft proposes the ability to carry uncompressed =
options inside a compressed message.

>=20

Note that I'm not expressing an opinion on if that is or is not a valid =
design choice.

Respectfully yours,

Thomas

Hello Jorjeta and Bora:

About this:

<  These
   kinds of networks increase coverage and reduce installation cost,
   time and complexity, as well as operational costs, as compared to
   single-hop wireless networks, relying on a wireline or cellular
   backhaul.  > assertion.

I'd think that the general benefit of meshing is the spatial reuse of =
the medium - same thing for any switched fabric at the end of the day -.
This benefits most to environments where the medium is a constrained or =
expensive resource.  This is much is very well-known and justifies the =
original text about cost savings.

>From there, the meshing/routing mechanism has to be designed in such a =
fashion that it is simple to deploy, with the classical self-* =
properties.
A radio meshing/routing system will indeed be simpler to deploy because =
as the intro says, it will be easier to guarantee an appropriate =
coverage, which you cannot do at all times with one hop of wire (because =
of movement) or cellular (because of dark zones).

So for all I know, the quoted text is not unsubstantiated and asilye =
justified for people of the art. I have no issue leaving the text as is =
and I find it relevant.

Cheers,

Pascal

Hello Bora,

The text in this paragraph doesn't actually use the word "substantial", =
and I think you meant "wireline", not "powerline". =20

What would you consider to be a "substantiated" statement of the =
applicability/benefits of mesh networks relative to other deployment =

Hi Jorjeta

Sorry, I had two comments in my original email. One was regarding =
gas/power meters and the second regarding the non-technical slant in the =
introduction.
The modified paragraph that I proposed is related to the second point.

To answer your question, I disagree with the unbsubstantiated statement =
that multi-hop wireless mesh networks have substantial cost benefits
compared to either powerline or single-hop (e.g. cellular modems) =
networks.=20
I am not saying this is completely wrong, I am saying that this =
statement does not belong in an IETF document since it has no relevance =
to ROLL
or the applicability of ROLL to AMI networks. I think the paragraph I =
proposed is clear-cut and technically accurate without having a bias =
towards the use of wireless mesh networks.

Bora

Hello Bora,

The paragraph you cited does not reference anything related to water or =
gas meters which was the topic of your earlier comment and the =
discussion that followed.  Is this perhaps not the right paragraph or is =
this the beginning of a new discussion?

As far as the benefits of multi-hop networks over wireline or cellular =

Hi Nicolas

Yes, we had a private email exchange off-list.

I would like to suggest alternate wording for this paragraph as follows:

ORIGINAL:

 Electric meters are often interconnected into multi-hop mesh
   networks, each of which is connected to a backhaul network leading to
   the utility network through a network aggregation point (NAP).  These
   kinds of networks increase coverage and reduce installation cost,
   time and complexity, as well as operational costs, as compared to
   single-hop wireless networks, relying on a wireline or cellular
   backhaul.  Each electric meter mesh typically has on the order of
   several thousand wireless endpoints, with densities varying based on
   the area and the terrain.  Apartment buildings in urban centers may
   have hundreds of meters in close proximity, whereas rural areas may
have sparse node distributions and include nodes that only have one   or
two network neighbors.  Paths in the mesh between a network device
   and the nearest aggregation point may be composed of several hops or
   even tens of hops.


ALTERNATE WORDING:


In one type of AMI network, electric meters are interconnected into
multi-hop mesh
networks, each of which is connected to a backhaul network leading to
the utility network through a network aggregation point (NAP).

<remove unsubstantiated assertion regarding cost benefits of multi-hop
mesh>

In a multi-hop mesh network, each electric meter mesh may have up to
several thousand wireless endpoints, with densities varying based on
the area and the terrain. Apartment buildings in urban centers may
have hundreds of meters in close proximity, whereas rural areas may
have sparse node distributions and include nodes that only have one or =
two
network neighbors.=20
Paths in the mesh between a network device
and the nearest aggregation point may be composed of several hops or
even tens of hops.



What do you think?

Thanks

Hi Pascal

There is nothing in the text that substantiates lower operational costs
for the wireless mesh networks.
If the customer (meter) density is such that you have 1-2 customers/acre
(or less), then I don't think spatial reuse buys
you anything. Once you figure in the OPEX of having to run these networks
by the utilities versus having
cellular backhaul (for example), the cost savings need to be carefully
considered.

Why do you think this one sentence is substantial to the rest of the
draft? The draft is not about
wireless mesh networks being best for AMI, it is about the applicability
of ROLL working group products
to AMI networks using wireless mesh technologies, yes?

Ah, but you must, JP, you must.=20

Note that I said in the above that RPL supports P2P traffic by way of =
dog-leg routing through the DODAG root, then source routing -- that's =
the _only_ way P2P is supported, guaranteed to work across all the =

    Mukul> This is the part that I dont understand. Why does our scheme
    Mukul> fall apart when a new option is introduced?

Because, when the new option is introduced:
  1) I need to know if a node supports it in regular or compressed
     format, assuming that a compressed format is defined also defined.
     This means that we had better define a compressed format with
     every new option!  But, why do that at all?  Just make sure that
     it is already efficiently encoded.
        
  2) if the presence of the new option blows the MTU, then there is
     significant pressure to never include that option, ever.

  3) if these compressed formats work so well, then let's throw out
     rpl-19, and use the old formats, and the code involved.

Problem #2 is particularly important, and has caused delays for new
things.  The new thing is not implemented as efficiently, and as a
result, even turning it on slows down the other parts.

For instance on a number of router platforms, for instance, IPv6
forwarding was not in ASIC, but in the slow path.  This meant that even
a small (1-2%) mix of IPv6 traffic would degrade ipv4 service.  While we
haven't even reached that level today, just the risk of degradation
caused IPv6 to stay disabled.

I started looking at doing some kind of straight huffman-type encoding,
perhaps using a static (pre-distributed) tree.  I'm not an expert here.
This kind of thing could possibly be put into hardware, and would apply
to all future extensions.

Well the sentence was, to say the least, strangely worded =85 As you =
know, you go via the root only if you deploy non-storing.

So I guess that we agree

Well, given the state requirements for storing-mode in networks larger =
than a few handful of routers, non-storing mode seems to be the only =
realistic choice for the lions share of deployments that I am aware of.=20=


Thus, dog-leg-source-routing is pretty much the only viable option - and =
you must admit that it's not a particularly elegant or efficient option =
at that?

*if* you think that this not elegant enough (which has to be =

Hi Bora and all,

There were some comments on the list related to adding text about the appli=
cability of multi-hop vs. single-hop deployments.  This paragraph attempted=
 to distinguish between the two.  Perhaps it is not necessary to motivate t=
he existence/use of multi-hop networks because they are already the focus o=
f the protocol development within this group.

Does anyone else have any additional comments regarding including text abou=
t the benefits of multi-hop networks as compared to single-hop networks in =
the draft?=20

Thanks, Jorjeta

Hi again,

My point is that this statement adds no value to the document and in my
opinion subtracts value.
The alternate wording I suggested is technical and avoids "markitecture"
type statements.

I meant powerline (as in Aclara TWACS or the newer technologies) which is
essentially a single hop technology.

I believe the cost effectiveness of a particular technology highly depends
on the OPEX as well as the CAPEX,
and customer density. I don't think we should take that on in an IETF
document.

I would submit that if when running RPL on 802.15.4 I manage to get =
fragmented RPL control packets, then there's something that should be =
fixed in a protocol from a working group, which has 802.15.4 among its =
design targets.

It seems that Daniel indicates that there may be exceptional MACs where =
compression isn't needed. But, it also seems that in the majority of the =
cases, it is needed and thus should be default.

Do note that my main point is, that "simple is good".=20

As Michael has said repeatedly, having two different, incompatible, =
packet formats is extra overhead in coding and testing and isn't without =
complications for extensibility etc.=20

As Ulrich and Michael have pointed out, there are issues when running =
two different and incompatible flavors of RPL (as would be the case if =
there were two different packet format) in the same network. If such is =
prohibited, then the WG has effectively created 4 different, =
non-interoperable protocols as previously enumerated.

I'd much like a routing protocol, designed for low-power, lossy networks =
and with low-MTU MACs as one of its design-target to be able to run over =
these networks. If _this_ early a need for an alternative, more compact, =
packet format is identified, then by all means let's get RPL updated to =
use that alternative, more compact, packet format. I have absolutely no =
problems with that.

I do, however, think that it should be avoided adding yet another =
component of functionality and complexity to an already complex =
protocol. And, it should be avoided to adding another set of =
non-interoperable modes-of-operation rendering deployments more complex.

Respectfully yours,

Thomas

it's not a matter of elegance but of the routing being shortest path 
different than routing being trees and dags in a computer's memory.

mip has dogleg routing and mechanisms to alleviate it (ro) imposed by 
the sheer size of Internet (not the case of rpl nets), no need of new 
mechanisms to avoid dogleg in small nets - there exist simple mechanisms 
already to do that.

All,
The benefit of multi-hop networks is clear as it relates to geography cover=
age: that is why star topologies have some hidden repeat-route-relay featur=
es/mechanisms to extend coverage, which comes naturally with mesh topologie=
s. And this statement applies to both wireless and wired networks.

Hi Bora and all,

There were some comments on the list related to adding text about the appli=
cability of multi-hop vs. single-hop deployments.  This paragraph attempted=
 to distinguish between the two.  Perhaps it is not necessary to motivate t=
he existence/use of multi-hop networks because they are already the focus o=
f the protocol development within this group.

Does anyone else have any additional comments regarding including text abou=
t the benefits of multi-hop networks as compared to single-hop networks in =
the draft?=20

Hi again,

My point is that this statement adds no value to the document and in my
opinion subtracts value.
The alternate wording I suggested is technical and avoids "markitecture"
type statements.

I meant powerline (as in Aclara TWACS or the newer technologies) which is
essentially a single hop technology.

I believe the cost effectiveness of a particular technology highly depends
on the OPEX as well as the CAPEX,
and customer density. I don't think we should take that on in an IETF
document.

Hi Jorjeta,

While I agree with you that mesh networks have a lot of advantages in
many AMI deployments, I think Bora has made very good points. The text
on the benefits of multi-hop networks vs. single-hop networks does not
appear to be within the scope of the applicability statement of RPL to
AMI MESH networks.

I think the introduction shared by Bora is concise and clear.

Regards,
Alvaro

Hi Jorjeta, <br>
<br>
While I agree with you that mesh networks have a lot of advantages in
many AMI deployments, I think Bora has made very good points. The text
on the benefits of multi-hop networks vs. single-hop networks does not
appear to be within the scope of the applicability statement of RPL to
AMI MESH networks. <br>
<br>
I think the introduction shared by Bora is concise and clear.<br>

  <pre wrap="">Hi Bora and all,

There were some comments on the list related to adding text about the applicability of multi-hop vs. single-hop deployments.  This paragraph attempted to distinguish between the two.  Perhaps it is not necessary to motivate the existence/use of multi-hop networks because they are already the focus of the protocol development within this group.

Does anyone else have any additional comments regarding including text about the benefits of multi-hop networks as compared to single-hop networks in the draft?

Hi again,

My point is that this statement adds no value to the document and in my
opinion subtracts value.
The alternate wording I suggested is technical and avoids "markitecture"
type statements.

I meant powerline (as in Aclara TWACS or the newer technologies) which is
essentially a single hop technology.

I believe the cost effectiveness of a particular technology highly depends
on the OPEX as well as the CAPEX,
and customer density. I don't think we should take that on in an IETF
document.

Regards

The text in this paragraph doesn't actually use the word "substantial",

What would you consider to be a "substantiated" statement of the
applicability/benefits of mesh networks relative to other deployment
paradigms?

Hi Jorjeta

Sorry, I had two comments in my original email. One was regarding
gas/power meters and the second regarding the non-technical slant in the
introduction.
The modified paragraph that I proposed is related to the second point.

To answer your question, I disagree with the unbsubstantiated statement
that multi-hop wireless mesh networks have substantial cost benefits
compared to either powerline or single-hop (e.g. cellular modems)
networks.
I am not saying this is completely wrong, I am saying that this statement
does not belong in an IETF document since it has no relevance to ROLL
or the applicability of ROLL to AMI networks. I think the paragraph I
proposed is clear-cut and technically accurate without having a bias
towards the use of wireless mesh networks.

Regards

Bora

Hello Bora,

The paragraph you cited does not reference anything related to water or
gas meters which was the topic of your earlier comment and the discussion
that followed.  Is this perhaps not the right paragraph or is this the
beginning of a new discussion?

As far as the benefits of multi-hop networks over wireline or cellular
backhaul, I think that lower cost and deployment complexity are pretty
commonly cited.  Do you disagree with this statement?

Hi Nicolas

Yes, we had a private email exchange off-list.

I would like to suggest alternate wording for this paragraph as follows:

ORIGINAL:

Electric meters are often interconnected into multi-hop mesh
  networks, each of which is connected to a backhaul network leading to
  the utility network through a network aggregation point (NAP).  These
  kinds of networks increase coverage and reduce installation cost,
  time and complexity, as well as operational costs, as compared to
  single-hop wireless networks, relying on a wireline or cellular
  backhaul.  Each electric meter mesh typically has on the order of
  several thousand wireless endpoints, with densities varying based on
  the area and the terrain.  Apartment buildings in urban centers may
  have hundreds of meters in close proximity, whereas rural areas may
have sparse node distributions and include nodes that only have one   or
two network neighbors.  Paths in the mesh between a network device
  and the nearest aggregation point may be composed of several hops or
  even tens of hops.


ALTERNATE WORDING:


In one type of AMI network, electric meters are interconnected into
multi-hop mesh
networks, each of which is connected to a backhaul network leading to
the utility network through a network aggregation point (NAP).

&lt;remove unsubstantiated assertion regarding cost benefits of multi-hop
mesh&gt;

In a multi-hop mesh network, each electric meter mesh may have up to
several thousand wireless endpoints, with densities varying based on
the area and the terrain. Apartment buildings in urban centers may
have hundreds of meters in close proximity, whereas rural areas may
have sparse node distributions and include nodes that only have one or two
network neighbors.
Paths in the mesh between a network device
and the nearest aggregation point may be composed of several hops or
even tens of hops.



What do you think?

Hi Ruben

I think if you are in rural US (think Montana), I am not sure wireless
mesh network is going to have any advantages for coverage when compared to
cellular.
Regardless, I would propose that the suggested wording below is used to
replace the existing paragraph in this draft.


In one type of AMI network, electric meters are interconnected into
multi-hop mesh
networks, each of which is connected to a backhaul network leading to
the utility network through a network aggregation point (NAP).
In a multi-hop mesh network, each electric meter mesh may have up
toseveral thousand wireless endpoints, with densities varying based on
the area and the terrain. Apartment buildings in urban centers may
have hundreds of meters in close proximity, whereas rural areas may
have sparse node distributions and include nodes that only have one or two
network neighbors.
Paths in the mesh between a network device
and the nearest aggregation point may be composed of several hops or
even tens of hops.


Do you have any objections?

Thanks

Considering this "optional mechanism", I think some of us might concern:

1. The interoperability with the "main mechanism".  It's hard for me to
agree the statement that "there is no danger of lack of
interoperability" for a protocol -- especially for a "optional
mechanism" with its main document, developed in almost the same period. 
Even for a router with this compression mechanism, it might facing the
problem of sending out message in which format.

2. If the interoperability is hard to achieve, it's better to make it
clear how to make the choices:
        - in which kind of scenarios, this should be applied, and what's
the benefit of it regarding reducing fragmentation and overhead.
        - what is the cost of using this option (performance,
complexity, etc?)

If the cost of compression is acceptable and considering the scale of
network and heterogeneous environment, it seems to me that, for this
"optional mechanism", it's actually always necessary.
      If it doesn't do any harm to the performance, it might make more
sense to update RPL itself ... Considering the complexity, if I was a
engineer who needs to implement RPL, I won't mind reading 4 more pages,
after taking care of the 160-page RPL draft (RFC), to save the trouble
of interoperability and fragmentation.
