Hi Geoff,
I have an interest in working on mesh under discussion and vote yes to start
discussion for it. 
Some L2 protocol defines the mesh routing protocol in its L2 specification,
however some don't have (802.15.4 decided not having mesh routing in it, as
you mentioned in last meeting.) For the L2 which doesn't have mesh routing,
I believe we need to extend dispatcher for generic commands, carrier of mesh
routing metrics, L2 address basis source routing etc. as route over works on
ICMP. However, I'm afraid that I cannot write a draft up by the next IETF
meeting unfortunately.

Besides, IEEE802.15.4e is going to finalize its specification and it will be
done around end of this year. It has many optional MAC functionalities,
which includes low energy which enables sleeping router. I'm looking forward
to incorporate sleeping router functionality into 6lowpan.

We still have many items to do in 6lowpan WG.

Subject: [6lowpan] agenda for upcoming IETF

As you all should know the 6lowpan WG meeting is currently scheduled for
Tuesday afternoon 1520-1700 and we are looking for agenda items.

There has been little or no discussion on our mailing list since the
last IETF meeting.

Hopefully the ND and HC drafts are basically complete.  The Use Case and
Routing Requirements drafts are moving forward.

At the last meeting the other topic that seemed to have some traction in
the WG was working on other header compression techniques.  We have two
different drafts on this topic: Carsten's generic header compression and
Colin's ICMP header compression.

The other topic that hotly discussed atwas whether the group should work
on Mesh Under.

Again we have had no discussion on our list about any of these topics.

Besides the drafts from Carsten and Colin, we have had another draft on
global address compression.

The meta topic we need to discuss both at the meeting and on this list -
Should we call it quits or should we recharter?

Input???

	geoff

Dear authors,

The document looks rather complete and comprehensive.

There are a few questions:
Do I understand correctly that contrary to RFC 4861, the neighbor cache is =
always empty in 6LN. If true, this remark may be added to Registration term=
 of section 2.
>From that do I deduce correctly that access to the link for link-local addr=
esses (LLA) involves extracting the MAC address from the LLA.

MUST a 6LBR be present in an isolated LOWPAN? (6LBR text in section 2 seems=
 to imply this)
Assuming an isolated LOWPAN without 6LR or 6LBR, then there will be no answ=
er to the RS message, but the node can continue sending messages to LLA, wh=
ere the MAC address is again extracted from the LLA. Is that correct?

Hi Peter,

 

I think you are basically correct, with some additional constraints or
clarifications:

 

The 6LN NC will have entries for routers it has registered with, so it's not
always empty. 

 

Section 5.6 allows you to use the MAC extraction only if the link-local
address is EUI-64 based. This basically means if the U/L bit is set,
indicating the address in question was generated from a known-unique MAC
address. 802.15.4 for example has 16-bit addresses you could be using
instead.

 

I think most networks would have the 6LBR, although obviously if you have a
very specific situation as you outlined you could skip it. The 6LBR at
minimum would manage the compression context (if required) and serve as an
alternative way to reach a node by a default route. From a
maintenance/deployment/management perspective the 6LBR is an easy way to see
what nodes are alive on your network too by checking its tables.

 

Regards,

 

  -Colin

Subject: [6lowpan] nd-15 for isolated network

 

Dear authors,

 

The document looks rather complete and comprehensive.

 

There are a few questions:

Do I understand correctly that contrary to RFC 4861, the neighbor cache is
always empty in 6LN. If true, this remark may be added to Registration term
of section 2.

>From that do I deduce correctly that access to the link for link-local
addresses (LLA) involves extracting the MAC address from the LLA.

 

MUST a 6LBR be present in an isolated LOWPAN? (6LBR text in section 2 seems
to imply this)

Assuming an isolated LOWPAN without 6LR or 6LBR, then there will be no
answer to the RS message, but the node can continue sending messages to LLA,
where the MAC address is again extracted from the LLA. Is that correct?

 

Peter

Hi Geoff:

I think that the chairs also had the task to conclude with the ML
whether we'd do the work on Backbone Router and on Fragment recovery in
this group or not.
I think the former at least does not require re-chartering since it used
to be part of a WG doc. Yet, I have not seen that decision being made.
Could you please trigger those threads?
As a more generic item, do you envision re-chartering at all to take new
work aboard?

Cheers,

Pascal

That was not my recollection, so I will defer to Carsten.
But anyone else that would like to weigh in on these two topics:
  Backbone Router
  Fragment Recovery

Dear authors, all,

Here are my comments/questions regarding the 6lowpan-nd-15 draft. In genera=
l the document looks in good shape.

1)  Parts on multicast may benefit from some more clarification:
section 5.1 "A host would never multicast" -> is this "A host MUST NOT mult=
icast" or SHOULD NOT ?

section 5.6 "Multicast addresses are considered to be on-link and are resol=
ved as specified in [RFC4944] or the appropriate IP-over-foo document."
However section 5.7 says "As all prefixes but the link-local prefix are alw=
ays assumed to be off-link, multicast-based address resolution between neig=
hbors is not needed",  implying the contrary that multicast addresses are a=
lways off-link. Does this conflict?
Also, section 5.6 appears to refer to RFC 4944 Section 9, which is only app=
licable for mesh-under configurations. What about multicast in route-over c=
onfigurations?  (Should it be made more explicit here?)

Finally, the text in 5.6  "All other prefixes are assumed to be off-link [R=
FC5889]" should perhaps be moved lower, so that it indicates the final case=
 of this section. I.e. to first describe the special cases, then finally de=
scribe the "all other" case would be clearer I think.


2) Registration lifetime calculation:
 section 5.8.2. mentions "the maximum Registration lifetime is about 7 days=
".  Taking 65535 units of 60 seconds however, I find 45.5 days?


3)  Finally, some typos & minor remarks:

section 1.3 last paragraph: "involunterily"
"NCE" abbreviation is not defined on first use, also not used in RFC 4861, =
so should perhaps be defined here.

section 1.4 "messages in host-router interface and" -> "messages in host-ro=
uter interfaces and" ?
"multhop" -> multihop

section 3.1 "mechanism using new Address" ->"mechanism using a new Address"

section 3.5 "As Routers send RAs to hosts, and when routers optionally rece=
ive RA messages or receive multicast NS messages from other Routers the res=
ult is Garbage-collectible NCEs."
-> Maybe more clear using:  "When Routers send RAs to hosts, and when route=
rs optionally receive RA messages or receive multicast NS messages from oth=
er Routers, the result is Garbage-collectible NCEs."

section 4.1 "an SLLA option MUST be include" -> abbreviation "SLLA" is not =
defined on first use. Also not used in RFC 4861 main text, so could be defi=
ned here.

section 5.5 (last sent.) "use a router it is registered, it" -> "use a rout=
er it is registered to, it"

overall:  The text "section section" appears a few times.


best regards,
Esko

Subject: [6lowpan] Working Group Last call for draft-ietf-6lowpan-nd-15

In September/October, we had the first WGLC on 6LoWPAN-ND, which
resulted in a number of detailed comments and two resulting
fine-tuning iterations of the draft.

draft-ietf-6lowpan-nd-15.txt has been out for two months now.
I understand it has taken part in several interops with multiple
implementations in this period; no issues came up.

We now start the Working Group Last Call on:

   http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-6lowpan-nd-15

The document is planned to be submitted by this Working Group to the
IESG for publication as a Standards-Track Document.

This is a two-week Working-Group Last-Call, ending on Thursday,
2011-03-03 at 2359 UTC.

Please review the changes to the document carefully once more, and
send your comments to the 6lowpan list.  Please also do indicate to
the list if you are all-OK with the document.

Gruesse, Carsten

Hello,

I just wanted to make sure it was publically recorded that what Carsten says
is accurate. I consider the GHC draft a much better replacement for the
ICMPv6-specific one. I have no plans on continuing work for the
ICMPv6-specific one, indeed it is already out of date with the ND draft.

Regards,

 -Colin

It seems to me we will spend some time in Prague discussing the resolution
of the ND-15 WGLC comments.
(The WGLC ends on 2011-03-03, and the deadline for submission of an I-D
update (non-00) is 2011-03-14.)

Colin has said the GHC draft has essentially replaced his ICMP-specific one.
I plan to submit a version of that draft that supplies text for the
discovery/negotiation that was still outstanding in the version discussed in
Beijing.
(There also was some hallway discussion about ASCII compression -- I'll
include something very simple, which we may or may not want to throw out
again.  Does anyone have nice packet samples for evaluating that?)

Declaring victory after that sounds like an option.

Gruesse, Carsten

		8.2.  Multihop Duplicate Address Detection=0A=
=0A=
		   The ARO can be used, in addition to registering an address in a 6LR,=0A=
		   to have the 6LR verify that the address isn't used by some other =
host=0A=
		   known to the 6LR.  However, that isn't sufficient in a route-over=0A=
		   topology (or in a LoWPAN with multiple 6LBRs) since some host=0A=
		   attached to another 6LR could be using the same address.  There =
might=0A=
		   be different ways for the 6LRs to coordinate such Duplicate Address=0A=
		   Detection in the future, or addresses could be assigned using a=0A=
		   DHCPv6 server that verifies uniqueness as part of the assignment.=0A=
=0A=
		   This specification offers an optional and simple technique for 6LRs=0A=
		   and 6LBRs to perform Duplicate Address Detection that reuses the=0A=
		   information from Address Registration option in the DAR and DAC=0A=
		   messages.  This technique is not needed when the Interface ID in the=0A=
		   address is based on an EUI-64, since those are assumed to be =
globally=0A=
		   unique.  The technique assumes that the 6LRs either register with =
all=0A=
		   the 6LBRs, or that the network uses some out-of-scope mechanism to=0A=
		   keep the DAD tables in the 6LBRs synchronized.=0A=
=0A=
		   The multihop DAD mechanism is used synchronously the first time an=0A=
		   address is registered with a particular 6LR.  That is, the ARO =
option=0A=
		   is not returned to the host until multihop DAD has been completed=0A=
		   against the 6LBRs.  For existing registrations in the 6LR the=0A=
		   multihop DAD needs to be repeated against the 6LBRs to ensure that=0A=
		   the entry for the address in the 6LBRs does not time out, but that=0A=
		   can be done asynchronously with the response to the hosts.  For=0A=
		   instance, by tracking how much is left of the lifetime the 6LR=0A=
		   registered with the 6LBRs and re-registering with the 6LBR when this=0A=
		   lifetime is about to run out.=0A=
=0A=
		   For the synchronous multihop DAD the 6LR performs some additional=0A=
		   checks to ensure that it has a Neighbor Cache entry it can use to=0A=
		   respond to the host when it receives a response from a 6LBR.  This=0A=
		   consists of checking for an already existing (Tentative or=0A=
		   Registered) Neighbor Cache entry for the registered address with a=0A=
		   different EUI-64.  If such a Registered NCE exists, then the 6LR=0A=
		   SHOULD respond that the address is a duplicate.  If such a Tentative=0A=

Hi all

Recently Anders pointed out the need for the "Advertize on Behalf" flag in an Address Registration Option (ARO).

We would not have needed this flag if only a host could send a unicast NS containing an ARO. However, the way I read Section 6.5.5 in nd-15, a 6lowpan router (6LR) can also send a unicast NS to another 6lowpan router. This means that a registered neighbor cache entry (NCE) in a 6LR could refer to either a host or another 6LR. So, how does a 6LR know that a registered NCE belongs to an attached host and it should advertize reachability to this host in the routing protocol, such as RPL, it is running?

The proposed flag will solve this problem. A host would set "Advertize on behalf" flag when it sends an ARO inside a unicast NS message, whereas a 6LR wont. 

I was wondering if ND authors could comment on this.

Thanks
Mukul

A very good point.

Normally, a 6lowpan host would use the ARO in NS/NA messages to register its address with one or more 6LRs. But, section 6.5.5 in nd-15 draft allows two 6LRs to learn each other's link layer addresses using the ARO mechanism. So, it seems that a registered NCE in a 6LR does not necessarily refer to a 6lowpan host and this 6LR, if it is running RPL, can not advertize this NCE address in its DAO or respond to RPL-P2P route discovery messages listing this NCE address as the target.

The ARO flag you mentioned will solve this problem. The 6lowpan hosts would set this flag in the AROs they send, whereas the 6LRs wont.

Thanks
Mukul

Subject: [6lowpan] -nd-15: Battery host support seems to be incomplete

Having read the doc carefully, I have a comment:

Section 5.8 addresses sleeping nodes.
While I agree with the text in this section it seems to me that the
description does not cover an important battery host category:

* The frequently listening node (FLN)

In a non-storing routing environment like the one we are specifying in
RPL-P2P in the ROLL WG, we have the option of issuing a reactive
discovery request when needing to get in touch with a host on short
notice. This is a major requirement for real users in home control and
building automation.

The abovementioned FLN is a battery powered
host that can be reached with semi-low latency. The typical use is
installations where wires would be hard to install without affecting
the architectural appearance. Examples include wireless window drape
controllers and electronic door locks.
802.15.4 and Z-Wave have different link-layer solutions for this but
the user experience is the same: Reaction within a second or less.

If an originating node (keyfob or remote control) has lost all its
working routes to a FLN, it must re-discover a source route to the FLN.
But the FLN is sleeping.
I would like a flag in the ARO: "advertise on behalf".
If set, a default router may use the neighbor information to respond
to discovery requests. The actual response format obviously depends
on the actual routing protocol. RPL-P2P is just my actual example.
Thus, how the default router uses the information is out of scope of
the ND spec.

Thanks,
  Anders

Subject: [6lowpan] Working Group Last call for draft-ietf-6lowpan-nd-15

In September/October, we had the first WGLC on 6LoWPAN-ND, which
resulted in a number of detailed comments and two resulting
fine-tuning iterations of the draft.

draft-ietf-6lowpan-nd-15.txt has been out for two months now.
I understand it has taken part in several interops with multiple
implementations in this period; no issues came up.

We now start the Working Group Last Call on:

   http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-6lowpan-nd-15

The document is planned to be submitted by this Working Group to the
IESG for publication as a Standards-Track Document.

This is a two-week Working-Group Last-Call, ending on Thursday,
2011-03-03 at 2359 UTC.

Please review the changes to the document carefully once more, and
send your comments to the 6lowpan list.  Please also do indicate to
the list if you are all-OK with the document.

Gruesse, Carsten

Hi Colin,

Thanks for the clarifications.

Sending packets to destinations using mesh-under still remains a bit vague =
to me.
Given a LOWPAN with a 6LBR connected to DHCP, DNS, etc,  nodes will use the=
 prefix of the LOWPAN in the IP address.
According to 5.6 a packet with a non link-local IP address is assumed to be=
 off-link and sent to 6LBR.
However, when the prefix of the destination is the same as the prefix of th=
e source, source and destination are hosts in the same LOWPAN. In this case=
 the packet can be sent over the link with mesh-under routing to the destin=
ation.
In my view sending the packet to 6LBR contradicts the mesh-under concept, b=
ecause the packet is first routed to 6LBR.
To send the packet without passing via the 6LBR, the source needs the Link =
address of the destination, but this link address is only available to the =
6LBR.
A solution is configuring every host as a 6LR, but that defeats the purpose=
 of the 6LR.

What have I missed?

If the above reasoning is correct, a mechanism is lacking in which a host c=
an ask the 6LBR the link address of a given IP address with the LOWPAN pref=
ix to allow proper mesh-under routing.

Looking forward to your reaction.

Peter

Subject: RE: [6lowpan] nd-15 for isolated network

Hi Peter,

I think you are basically correct, with some additional constraints or clar=
ifications:

The 6LN NC will have entries for routers it has registered with, so it's no=
t always empty.

Section 5.6 allows you to use the MAC extraction only if the link-local add=
ress is EUI-64 based. This basically means if the U/L bit is set, indicatin=
g the address in question was generated from a known-unique MAC address. 80=
2.15.4 for example has 16-bit addresses you could be using instead.

I think most networks would have the 6LBR, although obviously if you have a=
 very specific situation as you outlined you could skip it. The 6LBR at min=
imum would manage the compression context (if required) and serve as an alt=
ernative way to reach a node by a default route. From a maintenance/deploym=
ent/management perspective the 6LBR is an easy way to see what nodes are al=
ive on your network too by checking its tables.

Regards,

  -Colin

Dear authors,

The document looks rather complete and comprehensive.

There are a few questions:
Do I understand correctly that contrary to RFC 4861, the neighbor cache is =
always empty in 6LN. If true, this remark may be added to Registration term=
 of section 2.
>From that do I deduce correctly that access to the link for link-local addr=
esses (LLA) involves extracting the MAC address from the LLA.

MUST a 6LBR be present in an isolated LOWPAN? (6LBR text in section 2 seems=
 to imply this)
Assuming an isolated LOWPAN without 6LR or 6LBR, then there will be no answ=
er to the RS message, but the node can continue sending messages to LLA, wh=
ere the MAC address is again extracted from the LLA. Is that correct?

Peter

Hi Geoff
I would support further work on header compression and also Mesh Under in t=
he working group.  We have successfully deployed commercial mesh-under IP-b=
ased networks using a proprietary mesh protocol=20
Operating on the 15.4 link layer and would be interested in sharing our exp=
eriences and working with others on this topic
I am also interested in improving fragmentation behaviour so I would like t=
o see work in this area

Subject: [6lowpan] agenda for upcoming IETF

As you all should know the 6lowpan WG meeting is currently scheduled for
Tuesday afternoon 1520-1700 and we are looking for agenda items.

There has been little or no discussion on our mailing list since the
last IETF meeting.

Hopefully the ND and HC drafts are basically complete.  The Use Case and
Routing Requirements drafts are moving forward.

At the last meeting the other topic that seemed to have some traction in
the WG was working on other header compression techniques.  We have two
different drafts on this topic: Carsten's generic header compression and
Colin's ICMP header compression.

The other topic that hotly discussed atwas whether the group should work
on Mesh Under.

Again we have had no discussion on our list about any of these topics.

Besides the drafts from Carsten and Colin, we have had another draft on
global address compression.

The meta topic we need to discuss both at the meeting and on this list -
Should we call it quits or should we recharter?

Input???

Hi Peter,

 

As a disclaimer: I'm not an author of the document, they would probably be
better to give a more complete answer.

 

I believe your conclusions are entirely correct, as I had reached the same
myself. Basically for mesh-under you are limited to using the link-local
addresses based on EUI-64, as otherwise a 6LN cannot perform address
resolution on another 6LN.

 

Regards,

 

  -Colin O'Flynn

Subject: RE: [6lowpan] nd-15 for isolated network

 

Hi Colin,

 

Thanks for the clarifications.

 

Sending packets to destinations using mesh-under still remains a bit vague
to me.

Given a LOWPAN with a 6LBR connected to DHCP, DNS, etc,  nodes will use the
prefix of the LOWPAN in the IP address.

According to 5.6 a packet with a non link-local IP address is assumed to be
off-link and sent to 6LBR.

However, when the prefix of the destination is the same as the prefix of the
source, source and destination are hosts in the same LOWPAN. In this case
the packet can be sent over the link with mesh-under routing to the
destination.

In my view sending the packet to 6LBR contradicts the mesh-under concept,
because the packet is first routed to 6LBR.

To send the packet without passing via the 6LBR, the source needs the Link
address of the destination, but this link address is only available to the
6LBR.

A solution is configuring every host as a 6LR, but that defeats the purpose
of the 6LR.

 

What have I missed?

 

If the above reasoning is correct, a mechanism is lacking in which a host
can ask the 6LBR the link address of a given IP address with the LOWPAN
prefix to allow proper mesh-under routing.

 

Looking forward to your reaction.

 

Peter

Subject: RE: [6lowpan] nd-15 for isolated network

 

Hi Peter,

 

I think you are basically correct, with some additional constraints or
clarifications:

 

The 6LN NC will have entries for routers it has registered with, so it's not
always empty. 

 

Section 5.6 allows you to use the MAC extraction only if the link-local
address is EUI-64 based. This basically means if the U/L bit is set,
indicating the address in question was generated from a known-unique MAC
address. 802.15.4 for example has 16-bit addresses you could be using
instead.

 

I think most networks would have the 6LBR, although obviously if you have a
very specific situation as you outlined you could skip it. The 6LBR at
minimum would manage the compression context (if required) and serve as an
alternative way to reach a node by a default route. From a
maintenance/deployment/management perspective the 6LBR is an easy way to see
what nodes are alive on your network too by checking its tables.

 

Regards,

 

  -Colin

Subject: [6lowpan] nd-15 for isolated network

 

Dear authors,

 

The document looks rather complete and comprehensive.

 

There are a few questions:

Do I understand correctly that contrary to RFC 4861, the neighbor cache is
always empty in 6LN. If true, this remark may be added to Registration term
of section 2.

>From that do I deduce correctly that access to the link for link-local
addresses (LLA) involves extracting the MAC address from the LLA.

 

MUST a 6LBR be present in an isolated LOWPAN? (6LBR text in section 2 seems
to imply this)

Assuming an isolated LOWPAN without 6LR or 6LBR, then there will be no
answer to the RS message, but the node can continue sending messages to LLA,
where the MAC address is again extracted from the LLA. Is that correct?

 

Peter

Subject: RE: [6lowpan] nd-15 for isolated network

Hi Colin,

Thanks for the clarifications.

Sending packets to destinations using mesh-under still remains a bit vague =
to me.
Given a LOWPAN with a 6LBR connected to DHCP, DNS, etc,  nodes will use the=
 prefix of the LOWPAN in the IP address.
According to 5.6 a packet with a non link-local IP address is assumed to be=
 off-link and sent to 6LBR.
However, when the prefix of the destination is the same as the prefix of th=
e source, source and destination are hosts in the same LOWPAN. In this case=
 the packet can be sent over the link with mesh-under routing to the destin=
ation.
In my view sending the packet to 6LBR contradicts the mesh-under concept, b=
ecause the packet is first routed to 6LBR.
To send the packet without passing via the 6LBR, the source needs the Link =
address of the destination, but this link address is only available to the =
6LBR.
A solution is configuring every host as a 6LR, but that defeats the purpose=
 of the 6LR.

What have I missed?

If the above reasoning is correct, a mechanism is lacking in which a host c=
an ask the 6LBR the link address of a given IP address with the LOWPAN pref=
ix to allow proper mesh-under routing.

Looking forward to your reaction.

Peter

Hi Peter,

I think you are basically correct, with some additional constraints or clar=
ifications:

The 6LN NC will have entries for routers it has registered with, so it's no=
t always empty.

Section 5.6 allows you to use the MAC extraction only if the link-local add=
ress is EUI-64 based. This basically means if the U/L bit is set, indicatin=
g the address in question was generated from a known-unique MAC address. 80=

imum would manage the compression context (if required) and serve as an alt=
ernative way to reach a node by a default route. From a maintenance/deploym=
ent/management perspective the 6LBR is an easy way to see what nodes are al=
ive on your network too by checking its tables.

Subject: [6lowpan] nd-15 for isolated network

Dear authors,

The document looks rather complete and comprehensive.

There are a few questions:
Do I understand correctly that contrary to RFC 4861, the neighbor cache is =
always empty in 6LN. If true, this remark may be added to Registration term=
 of section 2.
>From that do I deduce correctly that access to the link for link-local addr=
esses (LLA) involves extracting the MAC address from the LLA.

MUST a 6LBR be present in an isolated LOWPAN? (6LBR text in section 2 seems=
 to imply this)
Assuming an isolated LOWPAN without 6LR or 6LBR, then there will be no answ=
er to the RS message, but the node can continue sending messages to LLA, wh=
ere the MAC address is again extracted from the LLA. Is that correct?

Peter

Hi folks,

Got two remarks about the actual draft:
- a first remark about the lifetime in AROs
- a second about the behavior on wake up section.


= About the lifetime in AROs =

I don't see anything on the draft to enforce on the router's side that 
ARO.lifetime <= prefix.lifetime ;

The host is not expected to use a greater lifetime. However in some 
cases the actual valid lifetime may have changed since the last RA 
received from the router, especially when the host renews the 
registration of an address (the draft does not mandate to send a RS in 
this case).

The router is not mandated to check that the lifetime of the registered 
address fits within the valid lifetime of the prefix. Can a router 
refuse a registration with a too long lifetime or decrease the lifetime 
in the returned ARO (just like in DHCPv6) ?

I think we should plan a mechanism that allow a router to decrease a 
lifetime requested by a host in a ARO.

I would suggest the following mechanism: When a router receive a NS with 
an ARO, it can reply with an ARO containing a lower lifetime and the 
host must honor this lifetime.

I would suggest the following changes:

== Section 5.5.2.  Processing a Neighbor Advertisement ==

 > If the status field is zero, then the address registration was
 > successful.  The host saves the Registration Lifetime from the
 > Address Registration option for use to trigger a new NS
 > well before the lifetime expires.  If the Status field is not equal
 > to zero, the address registration has failed.

Becomes:
"
If the status field is zero, then the address registration was 
successful.  As the routeur may have decreased the lifetime of the 
address, the host MUST use the Registration Lifetime returned by the 
router in the Address Registration option received in the NS for use to 
trigger a new NS well before the lifetime expires. If the Status field 
is not equal to zero, the address registration has failed.
"

== Section 6.5.  Processing a Neighbor Solicitation ==

 > In addition to the normal validation of a Neighbor Solicitation and
 > its options, the Address Registration option is verified as follows
 > (if present).  If the Length field is not two, or if the Status field
 > is not zero, then the Neighbor Solicitation is silently ignored.

Becomes:
"
In addition to the normal validation of a Neighbor Solicitation and its 
options, the Address Registration option is verified as follows (if 
present).  If the Length field is not two, or if the Status field is not 
zero, then the Neighbor Solicitation is silently ignored.

If the requested lifetime is greater than the prefix lifetime, the 
router MUST decrease it in order to fit within the prefix lifetime. This 
change MUST be done before updating the Neighbor Cache Entry and sending 
subsequent DAR or NA message.
"

== Section  6.5.3.  Updating the Neighbor Cache ==

 > The Registration Lifetime and the EUI-64 are recorded in the
 > Neighbor Cache entry.  A unicast Neighbor Advertisement (NA) is then
 > sent in response to the NS.  This NA SHOULD include a copy of the
 > ARO, with the Status field set to zero.  A TLLA option is not
 > required in the NA, since the host already knows the router's
 > link-layer address from Router Advertisements.

Becomes:
"
The Registration Lifetime and the EUI-64 are recorded in the Neighbor
Cache entry.  A unicast Neighbor Advertisement (NA) is then sent in
response to the NS.  This NA SHOULD include a copy of the ARO, with
the Status field set to zero. If the router had to decrease the lifetime 
of the address, then the ARO option MUST be included to report the 
decreased lifetime to the host.
"

Please also note that it may be interesting to make similar changes in 
DAC/DAR and to update section 5.8.1. (Picking up an appropriate 
registration lifetime)


= About the behaviour on wake up section (5.8.2): =

I think this sentence

 > When a host wakes up from a sleep period it SHOULD maintain its
 > current address registrations that will timeout before the next
 > wakeup.

needs some clarifications.

Even if it's implicit, it doesn't stress enough that a node must 
maintain its addresses before switching to sleep mode in order to be 
able to retrieve it at wake up time. One may consider it just have to do 
so when a node wakes up.

I propose the following sentence that seems more clear to me :

"
When a host plans to switch to sleep mode, it SHOULD maintain its 
current address registrations to ensure that they will not timeout 
before the next wakeup.
"

Also, i am not sure how to interpret the sentence:

 > The
 > host may also need to refresh its prefix and context information by
 > sending a new unicast Router Solicitation

Does it mean that it is left to the implementation to decide wether a 
host refresh its information or not ?

Dear Robert, Colin,

Thanks for your comments.
Let me motivate my interest in looking at the routing issues.

In the applications I am involved, the bulk (say >90%) will be messages to =
one hop neighbors and possibly two-hop neighbors. Actually, I expect that t=
he quality of the link between source and destination can be better than th=
e link quality between source and 6LBR. (people may argue that this is bad =
network engineering, but given costs and knowledge today it looks a very pr=
obable situation)
What worries me is that for a communication between a source and a destinat=
ion with the same prefix (same LOWPAN) the packets first need to be sent to=
 a 6LBR (or 6LR) before they are routed to the destination, although source=
 and destination are only one hop away.
In my opinion removing this technically superfluous overhead is important.

Greetings,

peter

Hi Peter,

As a disclaimer: I'm not an author of the document, they would probably be =
better to give a more complete answer.

I believe your conclusions are entirely correct, as I had reached the same =
myself. Basically for mesh-under you are limited to using the link-local ad=
dresses based on EUI-64, as otherwise a 6LN cannot perform address resoluti=
on on another 6LN.

Subject: RE: [6lowpan] nd-15 for isolated network

Hi Colin,

Thanks for the clarifications.

Sending packets to destinations using mesh-under still remains a bit vague =
to me.
Given a LOWPAN with a 6LBR connected to DHCP, DNS, etc,  nodes will use the=
 prefix of the LOWPAN in the IP address.
According to 5.6 a packet with a non link-local IP address is assumed to be=
 off-link and sent to 6LBR.
However, when the prefix of the destination is the same as the prefix of th=
e source, source and destination are hosts in the same LOWPAN. In this case=
 the packet can be sent over the link with mesh-under routing to the destin=
ation.
In my view sending the packet to 6LBR contradicts the mesh-under concept, b=
ecause the packet is first routed to 6LBR.
To send the packet without passing via the 6LBR, the source needs the Link =
address of the destination, but this link address is only available to the =
6LBR.
A solution is configuring every host as a 6LR, but that defeats the purpose=
 of the 6LR.

What have I missed?

If the above reasoning is correct, a mechanism is lacking in which a host c=
an ask the 6LBR the link address of a given IP address with the LOWPAN pref=
ix to allow proper mesh-under routing.

Looking forward to your reaction.

Peter

Hi Peter,

I think you are basically correct, with some additional constraints or clar=
ifications:

The 6LN NC will have entries for routers it has registered with, so it's no=
t always empty.

Section 5.6 allows you to use the MAC extraction only if the link-local add=
ress is EUI-64 based. This basically means if the U/L bit is set, indicatin=
g the address in question was generated from a known-unique MAC address. 80=
2.15.4 for example has 16-bit addresses you could be using instead.

I think most networks would have the 6LBR, although obviously if you have a=
 very specific situation as you outlined you could skip it. The 6LBR at min=
imum would manage the compression context (if required) and serve as an alt=
ernative way to reach a node by a default route. From a maintenance/deploym=
ent/management perspective the 6LBR is an easy way to see what nodes are al=
ive on your network too by checking its tables.

Subject: [6lowpan] nd-15 for isolated network

Dear authors,

The document looks rather complete and comprehensive.

There are a few questions:
Do I understand correctly that contrary to RFC 4861, the neighbor cache is =
always empty in 6LN. If true, this remark may be added to Registration term=
 of section 2.
>From that do I deduce correctly that access to the link for link-local addr=
esses (LLA) involves extracting the MAC address from the LLA.

MUST a 6LBR be present in an isolated LOWPAN? (6LBR text in section 2 seems=
 to imply this)
Assuming an isolated LOWPAN without 6LR or 6LBR, then there will be no answ=
er to the RS message, but the node can continue sending messages to LLA, wh=
ere the MAC address is again extracted from the LLA. Is that correct?

Peter

Hi Peter and Colin
=20
> To send the packet without passing via the 6LBR, the source needs the
Link address of the destination, but this link address is only available
to the 6LBR.

=20

I do not see where this conclusion came from?

Provided that the mesh-under solution can derive the (short) link-layer
address from the IP address, I see no particular reason why a node
cannot reach other nodes
in the same subnet via routable addresses? (Yes, this somewhat rules out
DHCP but works nicely along the lines of the -HC draft.

=20

If -ND seems to say otherwise, I suppose this just has to be clarified?

=20

	Hi Peter,

	=20

	As a disclaimer: I'm not an author of the document, they would
probably be better to give a more complete answer.

	=20

	I believe your conclusions are entirely correct, as I had
reached the same myself. Basically for mesh-under you are limited to
using the link-local addresses based on EUI-64, as otherwise a 6LN
cannot perform address resolution on another 6LN.

	=20

	Regards,

	=20

	Hi Colin,

	=20

	Thanks for the clarifications.

	=20

	Sending packets to destinations using mesh-under still remains a
bit vague to me.

	Given a LOWPAN with a 6LBR connected to DHCP, DNS, etc,  nodes
will use the prefix of the LOWPAN in the IP address.

	According to 5.6 a packet with a non link-local IP address is
assumed to be off-link and sent to 6LBR.

	However, when the prefix of the destination is the same as the
prefix of the source, source and destination are hosts in the same
LOWPAN. In this case the packet can be sent over the link with
mesh-under routing to the destination.

	In my view sending the packet to 6LBR contradicts the mesh-under
concept, because the packet is first routed to 6LBR.

	To send the packet without passing via the 6LBR, the source
needs the Link address of the destination, but this link address is only
available to the 6LBR.

	A solution is configuring every host as a 6LR, but that defeats
the purpose of the 6LR.

	=20

	What have I missed?

	=20

	If the above reasoning is correct, a mechanism is lacking in
which a host can ask the 6LBR the link address of a given IP address
with the LOWPAN prefix to allow proper mesh-under routing.

	=20

	Looking forward to your reaction.

	=20

	Peter

	Hi Peter,

	=20

	I think you are basically correct, with some additional
constraints or clarifications:

	=20

	The 6LN NC will have entries for routers it has registered with,
so it's not always empty.=20

	=20

	Section 5.6 allows you to use the MAC extraction only if the
link-local address is EUI-64 based. This basically means if the U/L bit
is set, indicating the address in question was generated from a
known-unique MAC address. 802.15.4 for example has 16-bit addresses you
could be using instead.

	=20

	I think most networks would have the 6LBR, although obviously if
you have a very specific situation as you outlined you could skip it.
The 6LBR at minimum would manage the compression context (if required)
and serve as an alternative way to reach a node by a default route. From
a maintenance/deployment/management perspective the 6LBR is an easy way
to see what nodes are alive on your network too by checking its tables.

	=20

	Regards,

	=20

	Dear authors,

	=20

	The document looks rather complete and comprehensive.

	=20

	There are a few questions:

	Do I understand correctly that contrary to RFC 4861, the
neighbor cache is always empty in 6LN. If true, this remark may be added
to Registration term of section 2.

	From that do I deduce correctly that access to the link for
link-local addresses (LLA) involves extracting the MAC address from the
LLA.

	=20

	MUST a 6LBR be present in an isolated LOWPAN? (6LBR text in
section 2 seems to imply this)

	Assuming an isolated LOWPAN without 6LR or 6LBR, then there will
be no answer to the RS message, but the node can continue sending
messages to LLA, where the MAC address is again extracted from the LLA.
Is that correct?

I fully agree. That is never going to work in home control and building
automation.

=20

This is exactly the concerns that caused us to start looking at RPL-P2P
on the roll group.

Sounds like we should get together with Zach et al on this issue.

	Dear Robert, Colin,

	=20

	Thanks for your comments.

	Let me motivate my interest in looking at the routing issues.

	=20

	In the applications I am involved, the bulk (say >90%) will be
messages to one hop neighbors and possibly two-hop neighbors. Actually,
I expect that the quality of the link between source and destination can
be better than the link quality between source and 6LBR. (people may
argue that this is bad network engineering, but given costs and
knowledge today it looks a very probable situation)

	What worries me is that for a communication between a source and
a destination with the same prefix (same LOWPAN) the packets first need
to be sent to a 6LBR (or 6LR) before they are routed to the destination,
although source and destination are only one hop away.

	In my opinion removing this technically superfluous overhead is
important.

	It is good to finally see efforts (following lengthy
discussions) being made for the inexorable extinction (following a long
logical effort) of the mesh-under paradigm, a vestige of proprietary
routing blunders......  =20

	Hi Peter,

	=20

	As a disclaimer: I'm not an author of the document, they would
probably be better to give a more complete answer.

	=20

	I believe your conclusions are entirely correct, as I had
reached the same myself. Basically for mesh-under you are limited to
using the link-local addresses based on EUI-64, as otherwise a 6LN
cannot perform address resolution on another 6LN.

	Hi Colin,

	=20

	Thanks for the clarifications.

	=20

	Sending packets to destinations using mesh-under still remains a
bit vague to me.

	Given a LOWPAN with a 6LBR connected to DHCP, DNS, etc,  nodes
will use the prefix of the LOWPAN in the IP address.

	According to 5.6 a packet with a non link-local IP address is
assumed to be off-link and sent to 6LBR.

	However, when the prefix of the destination is the same as the
prefix of the source, source and destination are hosts in the same
LOWPAN. In this case the packet can be sent over the link with
mesh-under routing to the destination.

	In my view sending the packet to 6LBR contradicts the mesh-under
concept, because the packet is first routed to 6LBR.

	To send the packet without passing via the 6LBR, the source
needs the Link address of the destination, but this link address is only
available to the 6LBR.

	A solution is configuring every host as a 6LR, but that defeats
the purpose of the 6LR.

	=20

	What have I missed?

	=20

	If the above reasoning is correct, a mechanism is lacking in
which a host can ask the 6LBR the link address of a given IP address
with the LOWPAN prefix to allow proper mesh-under routing.

	=20

	Looking forward to your reaction.

	=20

	Hi Peter,

	=20

	I think you are basically correct, with some additional
constraints or clarifications:

	=20

	The 6LN NC will have entries for routers it has registered with,
so it's not always empty.=20

	=20

	Section 5.6 allows you to use the MAC extraction only if the
link-local address is EUI-64 based. This basically means if the U/L bit
is set, indicating the address in question was generated from a
known-unique MAC address. 802.15.4 for example has 16-bit addresses you
could be using instead.

	=20

	I think most networks would have the 6LBR, although obviously if
you have a very specific situation as you outlined you could skip it.
The 6LBR at minimum would manage the compression context (if required)
and serve as an alternative way to reach a node by a default route. From
a maintenance/deployment/management perspective the 6LBR is an easy way
to see what nodes are alive on your network too by checking its tables.

	=20

	Regards,

	=20

	Dear authors,

	=20

	The document looks rather complete and comprehensive.

	=20

	There are a few questions:

	Do I understand correctly that contrary to RFC 4861, the
neighbor cache is always empty in 6LN. If true, this remark may be added
to Registration term of section 2.

	From that do I deduce correctly that access to the link for
link-local addresses (LLA) involves extracting the MAC address from the
LLA.

	=20

	MUST a 6LBR be present in an isolated LOWPAN? (6LBR text in
section 2 seems to imply this)

	Assuming an isolated LOWPAN without 6LR or 6LBR, then there will
be no answer to the RS message, but the node can continue sending
messages to LLA, where the MAC address is again extracted from the LLA.
Is that correct?

Hi Anders,

The point is that DHCP can assign addresses which do not necessarily map in=
 a straightforward way to the link address.
I don't want to exclude that possibility.
And yes, ND says that only link-local addresses can be used for direct acce=
ss to link.
That makes two points of concern.

Greetings,

peter

I do not see where this conclusion came from?
Provided that the mesh-under solution can derive the (short) link-layer add=
ress from the IP address, I see no particular reason why a node cannot reac=

in the same subnet via routable addresses? (Yes, this somewhat rules out DH=

If -ND seems to say otherwise, I suppose this just has to be clarified?

Hi Peter,

As a disclaimer: I'm not an author of the document, they would probably be =
better to give a more complete answer.

I believe your conclusions are entirely correct, as I had reached the same =
myself. Basically for mesh-under you are limited to using the link-local ad=
dresses based on EUI-64, as otherwise a 6LN cannot perform address resoluti=
on on another 6LN.

Regards,

  -Colin O'Flynn

Subject: RE: [6lowpan] nd-15 for isolated network

Hi Colin,

Thanks for the clarifications.

Sending packets to destinations using mesh-under still remains a bit vague =
to me.
Given a LOWPAN with a 6LBR connected to DHCP, DNS, etc,  nodes will use the=
 prefix of the LOWPAN in the IP address.
According to 5.6 a packet with a non link-local IP address is assumed to be=
 off-link and sent to 6LBR.
However, when the prefix of the destination is the same as the prefix of th=
e source, source and destination are hosts in the same LOWPAN. In this case=
 the packet can be sent over the link with mesh-under routing to the destin=
ation.
In my view sending the packet to 6LBR contradicts the mesh-under concept, b=
ecause the packet is first routed to 6LBR.
To send the packet without passing via the 6LBR, the source needs the Link =
address of the destination, but this link address is only available to the =
6LBR.
A solution is configuring every host as a 6LR, but that defeats the purpose=
 of the 6LR.

What have I missed?

If the above reasoning is correct, a mechanism is lacking in which a host c=
an ask the 6LBR the link address of a given IP address with the LOWPAN pref=
ix to allow proper mesh-under routing.

Looking forward to your reaction.

Peter

Hi Peter,

I think you are basically correct, with some additional constraints or clar=
ifications:

The 6LN NC will have entries for routers it has registered with, so it's no=
t always empty.

Section 5.6 allows you to use the MAC extraction only if the link-local add=
ress is EUI-64 based. This basically means if the U/L bit is set, indicatin=
g the address in question was generated from a known-unique MAC address. 80=
2.15.4 for example has 16-bit addresses you could be using instead.

I think most networks would have the 6LBR, although obviously if you have a=
 very specific situation as you outlined you could skip it. The 6LBR at min=
imum would manage the compression context (if required) and serve as an alt=
ernative way to reach a node by a default route. From a maintenance/deploym=
ent/management perspective the 6LBR is an easy way to see what nodes are al=
ive on your network too by checking its tables.

Regards,

  -Colin

Dear authors,

The document looks rather complete and comprehensive.

There are a few questions:
Do I understand correctly that contrary to RFC 4861, the neighbor cache is =
always empty in 6LN. If true, this remark may be added to Registration term=
 of section 2.
>From that do I deduce correctly that access to the link for link-local addr=
esses (LLA) involves extracting the MAC address from the LLA.

MUST a 6LBR be present in an isolated LOWPAN? (6LBR text in section 2 seems=
 to imply this)
Assuming an isolated LOWPAN without 6LR or 6LBR, then there will be no answ=
er to the RS message, but the node can continue sending messages to LLA, wh=
ere the MAC address is again extracted from the LLA. Is that correct?

Peter

Hello,

I'm on the road right now so have sporatic access to email! Anyway:

The link-local address based on EUI-64 can always be mapped directly  
to a L2 address. This is a special case, no other address can be  
mapped that way according to the spec.

You can 'guess' that an address looks like it is based on e.g.: an  
802.15.4 short address, but you can't actually be sure like you can  
with an EUI-64 based address.

Regards,

   -Colin

I agree with Noriyuki-san, especially about 15.4e.  There are some nice 
features in 4e in addition to the sleepy routers, such as reduced header 
size, and flexible extensions to the header for things like mesh under.

6LoWPANners,

the 6LoWPAN WG has been chartered to produce an "implementers guide", =
collecting clarifying information about the standards relevant for this =
WG.  So far there has been little need for this, as we have put the =
necessary clarifying information into the specs themselves. However, =
with these maturing, maybe it is time to start work on the implementers =
guide.

I have submitted a first version of a document that might be fleshed out =
over time to become that implementers guide.
I expect this to grow, but probably not to the size of its role model, =
RFC 4815.

Please find it at:
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-bormann-6lowpan-roadmap-00

Enjoy!

Gruesse, Carsten

Carsten,
  This is great.  Thanks for starting this.  I think this document will
be critical as we move forward.  Do you think we need a section on ND?

I hope the folks from Zigbee, Jennic, Tridium, Atmel and Ember who are
currently building specs and products based on 6lowpan will provide some
of this much needed information.

wow, thanks for starting this!

Thanks.  I'm pretty sure we will add ND experience at some point, but  
for now I'd rather get nd-15 finished...

Let's try to collect some tidbits in the hallways in Prague so we can  
have a more useful -01 soon.

(If you have something now, I'd be glad to add it before the -0x  
deadline, too.)

Hi Carsten,
  Now we have LWIP which will on similar issues. In view of that I am not sure

Peter,
  I think there is some confusion.

If you are sending packets from one node to another within the PAN you do n=
ot necessarily have to send the packet to the 6lbr.  If the routing protoco=
l has a mechanism to route point to point or if you are using some sort of =
layer 2.5 (mesh under) forwarding protocol then packets should be deliverab=
le directly between the nodes based on the MAC address which is the IID.

Only if the 6lbr is the only node with knowledge of network topology would =
you have to send packets to the border router.

Certainly for next hop neighbors you can use the IID (which is device's sho=
rt or long address mac address) as the dest address in the 15.4 header and =
deliver the packet directly.

For nodes two hops or more away you would use the routing protocol to deliv=
er the packet to the next IP hop toward the destination node. With mesh und=
er you would use the mesh forwarding mechanism to send the packet to the de=
stination via layer 2.5 forwarding (only one ip hop away).

Hello,

You cannot use an IP address based on the short address and be *assured* =
you have mapping between the L2 & IPv6 address.

You can only be assured of this with EUI-64 (e.g.: long address) based =
devices.

Does anything stop a device from using an address of e.g. =
fe80::ff:fe00:7463 with a different short address? The long address is =
'protected' against this because of the U/L bit, a node couldn't use an =
address that looks EUI-64 based because it can't guarantee universal =
uniqueness unless it is actually EUI-64 based.

For this reason 6lowpan-nd-15 seems to specify address resolution is =
only skipped for EUI-64 based IPv6 addresses.

Peter's other problem is that if you wish to use a global address, you =
do always need to send to a 6LR, even if the destination is actually =
on-link to you. I think it is just 'not possible' based solely on the =
current draft.

Regards,

  -Colin

Peter,
  I think there is some confusion.

If you are sending packets from one node to another within the PAN you =
do not necessarily have to send the packet to the 6lbr.  If the routing =
protocol has a mechanism to route point to point or if you are using =
some sort of layer 2.5 (mesh under) forwarding protocol then packets =
should be deliverable directly between the nodes based on the MAC =
address which is the IID.

Only if the 6lbr is the only node with knowledge of network topology =
would you have to send packets to the border router.

Certainly for next hop neighbors you can use the IID (which is device's =
short or long address mac address) as the dest address in the 15.4 =
header and deliver the packet directly.

For nodes two hops or more away you would use the routing protocol to =
deliver the packet to the next IP hop toward the destination node. With =
mesh under you would use the mesh forwarding mechanism to send the =
packet to the destination via layer 2.5 forwarding (only one ip hop =
away).

I think that LWIP will deal with more generic LW IP topics.  I was thinking=
 Mr. Bormann's draft will be much more 6lowpan specific.  I don't think the=
 draft from LWIP will detail 6lowpan ND or 6lowpan LBR specific topics.

Really?  What if the addresses are handed out with DHCP such that the IPv6 =
IID is the devices short address or manual configuration?  I would think th=
at there are other ways to agree on the mapping of L2 and IPv6 IID.

I guess I have to re-read this.  This seems wrong.

I don't understand this Colin.  If I'm sending a packet to a global address=
 and that address is on-link then my network prefix will be the same and I =
should be able to then use the IID as the mac address to address the packet=
.

Peter was saying he thought you always had to send the packet to the 6LBR w=
hich shouldn't be the case.

If it is a neighbor -> send it directly.

If I'm using a mesh under then there are no 6LRs -> send it to the device u=
sing the mac address/IID.

If I'm using route over -> send it to the 6LR the routing protocol specifie=
s.  The routing protocol ought to be able to get the packet to destination =
without having to send it to the 6LBR.

Do I have this wrong?

Hi all,
This is just a question rather than a comment since the WGLC period is
already over and a matter is really old one. I thought the old draft (before
08 or 07) has a concept of a conjunction of the mesh under and the route
over. However, it looks to me the current draft implicit that there isn't a
concept like that anymore. (Ex. Route over runs among LRs and each LR has
mesh under network individually.)

Am I missing something? Or the document still allows it? Apologize if the WG
already has a consent regarding this.

Subject: [6lowpan] Working Group Last call for draft-ietf-6lowpan-nd-15

In September/October, we had the first WGLC on 6LoWPAN-ND, which
resulted in a number of detailed comments and two resulting
fine-tuning iterations of the draft.

draft-ietf-6lowpan-nd-15.txt has been out for two months now.
I understand it has taken part in several interops with multiple
implementations in this period; no issues came up.

We now start the Working Group Last Call on:

   http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-6lowpan-nd-15

The document is planned to be submitted by this Working Group to the
IESG for publication as a Standards-Track Document.

This is a two-week Working-Group Last-Call, ending on Thursday,
2011-03-03 at 2359 UTC.

Please review the changes to the document carefully once more, and
send your comments to the 6lowpan list.  Please also do indicate to
the list if you are all-OK with the document.

Gruesse, Carsten

Hi:

<Colin>
The link-local address based on EUI-64 can always be mapped directly to
a L2 address. This is a special case, no other address can be mapped
that way according to the spec.
</Colin>

=20
<Pascal>  I'm sure you mean addresses that are formed using a link-layer
address, not just Link Local. More in section 5.7
 </Pascal>


<Peter> In the applications I am involved, the bulk (say >90%) will be
messages > to one hop neighbors and possibly two-hop neighbors.
Actually, I expect that the quality of the link between source and
destination can be better than the link quality between source and 6LBR.
(people may argue that this is bad network engineering, but given costs
and knowledge today it looks a very probable situation)=20
</Peter>


<Pascal>  What's more troubling for Peter's point about 1-hop neighbors
is in 6.1:
"
   A router MUST NOT set the 'L' (on-link) flag in the Prefix
   Information options, since that might trigger hosts to send multicast
   Neighbor Solicitations.
"
This text prevents a node from checking whether another node is visible
at L2. I think that this recent addition is a mistake. Though clearly
costly on a mesh under, this could be reasonable in some route over
cases, as long as the multicast is not forwarded.=20

What this spec should mandate is whether and how to enforce the
registration for a given prefix as opposed to classical ND. The 'L' bit
does not say that. We need a new bit.
 </Pascal>

I think we need to assess the usefulness of such a draft on top of the lwip 
work. That was my comment.

Otherwise I am OK.

Hello,

First off, I want to stress that I'm attempting to go 'by the rules' of =
what is written in the relevant standards. I'm not advocating this is =
the necessarily the sane way.=20

My point is that you are not assured that unless you control the entire =
network. Nothing stops a host from using an address that 'looks like' it =
maps to a 16-bit address when it doesn't. At least nothing I've found.

Your understanding is correct in a 'sane' manner (I think), as I agree =
that is how it should work. But as I understand the standard that is not =
how it is written to work.

Sorry I also said 'send to 6LBR' when I meant just 'send to 6LR'.=20

Really?  What if the addresses are handed out with DHCP such that the =
IPv6 IID is the devices short address or manual configuration?  I would =
think that there are other ways to agree on the mapping of L2 and IPv6 =
IID.

I guess I have to re-read this.  This seems wrong.

I don't understand this Colin.  If I'm sending a packet to a global =
address and that address is on-link then my network prefix will be the =
same and I should be able to then use the IID as the mac address to =
address the packet.

Peter was saying he thought you always had to send the packet to the =
6LBR which shouldn't be the case.

If it is a neighbor -> send it directly.

If I'm using a mesh under then there are no 6LRs -> send it to the =
device using the mac address/IID.

If I'm using route over -> send it to the 6LR the routing protocol =
specifies.  The routing protocol ought to be able to get the packet to =
destination without having to send it to the 6LBR.

Do I have this wrong?

Hello,

<Pascal>  I'm sure you mean addresses that are formed using a link-layer
address, not just Link Local. More in section 5.7
 </Pascal>

Yes of course! I guess though what I really meant is that according to the
draft, save for the 6LR(s) address(es), a link-local address based on the
EUI-64 is the only address a 6LN could send to directly.

This is a limitation of the 6lowpan-nd draft, if I am reading this
correctly. I'm not trying to argue for or against such a limitation, just
everyone should be aware of it, and if this is not acceptable look for a
solution.

It would be good to have some confirmation from the authors to ensure I'm
not just being stupid, something we can never rule out ;-)

Regards,

  -Colin O'Flynn

Hi:

<Colin>
The link-local address based on EUI-64 can always be mapped directly to
a L2 address. This is a special case, no other address can be mapped
that way according to the spec.
</Colin>

 
<Pascal>  I'm sure you mean addresses that are formed using a link-layer
address, not just Link Local. More in section 5.7
 </Pascal>

Actually, I expect that the quality of the link between source and
destination can be better than the link quality between source and 6LBR.
(people may argue that this is bad network engineering, but given costs
and knowledge today it looks a very probable situation) 
</Peter>


<Pascal>  What's more troubling for Peter's point about 1-hop neighbors
is in 6.1:
"
   A router MUST NOT set the 'L' (on-link) flag in the Prefix
   Information options, since that might trigger hosts to send multicast
   Neighbor Solicitations.
"
This text prevents a node from checking whether another node is visible
at L2. I think that this recent addition is a mistake. Though clearly
costly on a mesh under, this could be reasonable in some route over
cases, as long as the multicast is not forwarded. 

What this spec should mandate is whether and how to enforce the
registration for a given prefix as opposed to classical ND. The 'L' bit
does not say that. We need a new bit.
 </Pascal>

Cheers,

Pascal

Citing from a random draft LWIG charter (datatracker doesn't seem to =

So the LWIG output is intended to be descriptive, about implementation =
techniques, not affecting interoperability.

The 6LoWPAN implementers guide I started to write explains how to =
properly use the 6LoWPAN protocols, in a way that is intended to be more =
prescriptive than descriptive, very much impacting (i.e., improving) =
interoperability, and potentially ultimately leading to revised versions =
of the specifications.  Again, cf. RFC 4815 for an example for where =
this can lead.

While it is possible there will be some overlap in the fringe areas =
between the two, with a little bit of forethought that can be =
controlled.
And, yes, I'd expect LWIG to be a working group that we want to closely =
collaborate with, both with respect to this guide and with respect to =
the other 6LoWPAN documents.

Gruesse, Carsten

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1

Greetings,

I wonder if I might sanity check my understanding of how 6loWPAN
hc-15, nd-15, and RFC 4944 all fit together.

I ran a diff of hc-06 and hc-15 and I see that somewhere along the way
a new section was inserted in draft-ietf-6lowpan-hc at 3.2.2.  I thought
the intent was to clarify the language of RFC 4944 section 6, but on a
closer reading they appear to be at odds.  In particular, RFC 4944 MAY
potentially include the 16_bit_PAN in the upper 16 bits of the 802.15.4
short address derived IID.  That section in the RFC also says:

  "A different MAC address set manually or by software MAY be used
   to derive the Interface Identifier.  If such a MAC address is used, its
   global uniqueness property should be reflected in the value of the
   U/L bit."

But it doesn't specifically **disallow** the 0xFFFE pattern in the middle
of those alternatives (meaning implementations may not correctly
determine whether a locally assigned IID can be compressed or not).

** The bottom line is that the compressor and decompressor MUST
   implement the same procedure for mapping short addresses if the
   IID is to be properly re-constructed. **

Now hc-15 section 3.2.2 is intended specifically to clarify the SAM=3
and DAM=3 modes, but I see that a lot of text has been added to
hc-15 section 3.1.1 for the other SAM and DAM modes as well.

Let me next interject what draft-ietf-6lowpan-nd-15 section 4.2 says:

  "A context may be a prefix of any length or an address (/128), and
   up to 16 6LoWPAN Context options may be carried in an Router
   Advertisement message."

Now, paraphrasing hc-15 section 3.1.1, it seems the decompressor
MUST use all of the (0 to 128) valid context bits as the prefix, any bits
not covered by the prefix are taken from the IID as reconstructed
according to hc-15 3.2.2, and if there are any gaps (say the prefix
was /16) then those missing bits will be set to zero.  IOW, the correct
way to decompress a short address seems to be to re-construct it
(according to sect 3.2.2) in a field of 128 zeros, then overwrite the
high order bits with the context.

Is this interpretation correct?  I hope that in real situations, the
context length will only assume reasonable values.  When using
the 16-bit short address, it doesn't seem to make any sense to use
contexts longer than /112 since there's no guarantee that short
addresses will be unique in their (less than 16) low-order bits in a
given prefix.

This question is partly inspired by a thread on the Contiki list regarding
checksum errors in WireShark.  I think that WireShark is currently
copying Context/128 and overwriting with the IID, which seems to
be incorrect for context > 64?

Hello,

<Pascal>  I'm sure you mean addresses that are formed using a link-layer
address, not just Link Local. More in section 5.7
 </Pascal>

Yes of course! I guess though what I really meant is that according to the
draft, save for the 6LR(s) address(es), a link-local address based on the
EUI-64 is the only address a 6LN could send to directly.

This is a limitation of the 6lowpan-nd draft, if I am reading this
correctly. I'm not trying to argue for or against such a limitation, just
everyone should be aware of it, and if this is not acceptable look for a
solution.

It would be good to have some confirmation from the authors to ensure I'm
not just being stupid, something we can never rule out ;-)

Hi:

<Colin>
The link-local address based on EUI-64 can always be mapped directly to
a L2 address. This is a special case, no other address can be mapped
that way according to the spec.
</Colin>


<Pascal>  I'm sure you mean addresses that are formed using a link-layer
address, not just Link Local. More in section 5.7
 </Pascal>


<Peter> In the applications I am involved, the bulk (say >90%) will be

Actually, I expect that the quality of the link between source and
destination can be better than the link quality between source and 6LBR.
(people may argue that this is bad network engineering, but given costs
and knowledge today it looks a very probable situation)
</Peter>


<Pascal>  What's more troubling for Peter's point about 1-hop neighbors
is in 6.1:
"
   A router MUST NOT set the 'L' (on-link) flag in the Prefix
   Information options, since that might trigger hosts to send multicast
   Neighbor Solicitations.
"
This text prevents a node from checking whether another node is visible
at L2. I think that this recent addition is a mistake. Though clearly
costly on a mesh under, this could be reasonable in some route over
cases, as long as the multicast is not forwarded.

What this spec should mandate is whether and how to enforce the
registration for a given prefix as opposed to classical ND. The 'L' bit
does not say that. We need a new bit.
 </Pascal>

Cheers,

Pascal

The descriptive part of this document would be covered by/merged to
the output of the LWIG.  And the roadmap document, if exactly as
implied by the name, is okay for 6lowpan.  But I do expect you can
output the guideline part (e.g., MTU section) to the LWIG document,
and we surely will collaborate with each other on the topic.

Well, that (if we decide to do it the way I wrote in the draft) actually =
is not just guidance, but a change to RFC 4944, which is why this isn't =

I think that we now have two presentations: 
  - 6lowpan proxy for ND
  - ipv6 over bluetooth low-energy

Other topics:
  - ND issues
  - Carstens general packet compression
  - new work/rechartering


Any others topics for the agenda?

Just as another point: nothing stops another protocol (the mesh protocol,
etc) from either populating the neighbor table, or defining additional
address resolution strategies for 6LN.

So I don't think 6lowpan-nd is broken. It just may not provide all the
features some are expecting, but doesn't stop a future extension or protocol
from providing those features.

Hello,

<Pascal>  I'm sure you mean addresses that are formed using a link-layer
address, not just Link Local. More in section 5.7
 </Pascal>

Yes of course! I guess though what I really meant is that according to the
draft, save for the 6LR(s) address(es), a link-local address based on the
EUI-64 is the only address a 6LN could send to directly.

This is a limitation of the 6lowpan-nd draft, if I am reading this
correctly. I'm not trying to argue for or against such a limitation, just
everyone should be aware of it, and if this is not acceptable look for a
solution.

It would be good to have some confirmation from the authors to ensure I'm

Hi:

<Colin>
The link-local address based on EUI-64 can always be mapped directly to
a L2 address. This is a special case, no other address can be mapped
that way according to the spec.
</Colin>


<Pascal>  I'm sure you mean addresses that are formed using a link-layer
address, not just Link Local. More in section 5.7
 </Pascal>


<Peter> In the applications I am involved, the bulk (say >90%) will be

Actually, I expect that the quality of the link between source and
destination can be better than the link quality between source and 6LBR.
(people may argue that this is bad network engineering, but given costs
and knowledge today it looks a very probable situation)
</Peter>


<Pascal>  What's more troubling for Peter's point about 1-hop neighbors
is in 6.1:
"
   A router MUST NOT set the 'L' (on-link) flag in the Prefix
   Information options, since that might trigger hosts to send multicast
   Neighbor Solicitations.
"
This text prevents a node from checking whether another node is visible
at L2. I think that this recent addition is a mistake. Though clearly
costly on a mesh under, this could be reasonable in some route over
cases, as long as the multicast is not forwarded.

What this spec should mandate is whether and how to enforce the
registration for a given prefix as opposed to classical ND. The 'L' bit
does not say that. We need a new bit.
 </Pascal>

Cheers,

Pascal

Hi Colin,

Populating the neighbor table form a mesh protocol sounds to me as a last r=
esort.
The neighbor table is very much the responsibility of the nd protocol.
Other mesh protocols, possibly developed by other standardization groups, c=
hanging the contents of the neighbor table are subject to (according to me)=
 unwanted cross dependencies.

Greetings,

peter

Just as another point: nothing stops another protocol (the mesh protocol,
etc) from either populating the neighbor table, or defining additional
address resolution strategies for 6LN.

So I don't think 6lowpan-nd is broken. It just may not provide all the
features some are expecting, but doesn't stop a future extension or protoco=
l
from providing those features.

Hello,

<Pascal>  I'm sure you mean addresses that are formed using a link-layer
address, not just Link Local. More in section 5.7
 </Pascal>

Yes of course! I guess though what I really meant is that according to the
draft, save for the 6LR(s) address(es), a link-local address based on the
EUI-64 is the only address a 6LN could send to directly.

This is a limitation of the 6lowpan-nd draft, if I am reading this
correctly. I'm not trying to argue for or against such a limitation, just
everyone should be aware of it, and if this is not acceptable look for a
solution.

It would be good to have some confirmation from the authors to ensure I'm

Hi:

<Colin>
The link-local address based on EUI-64 can always be mapped directly to
a L2 address. This is a special case, no other address can be mapped
that way according to the spec.
</Colin>


<Pascal>  I'm sure you mean addresses that are formed using a link-layer
address, not just Link Local. More in section 5.7
 </Pascal>


<Peter> In the applications I am involved, the bulk (say >90%) will be

Actually, I expect that the quality of the link between source and
destination can be better than the link quality between source and 6LBR.
(people may argue that this is bad network engineering, but given costs
and knowledge today it looks a very probable situation)
</Peter>


<Pascal>  What's more troubling for Peter's point about 1-hop neighbors
is in 6.1:
"
   A router MUST NOT set the 'L' (on-link) flag in the Prefix
   Information options, since that might trigger hosts to send multicast
   Neighbor Solicitations.
"
This text prevents a node from checking whether another node is visible
at L2. I think that this recent addition is a mistake. Though clearly
costly on a mesh under, this could be reasonable in some route over
cases, as long as the multicast is not forwarded.

What this spec should mandate is whether and how to enforce the
registration for a given prefix as opposed to classical ND. The 'L' bit
does not say that. We need a new bit.
 </Pascal>

Cheers,

Pascal

Hi Colin

I think that what you're getting at is that an external operation could
be used to determine whether an address is on-link. Once an address is
determined to be on-link, RFC 4861 allows to look it up, even if the PIO
indicates that the prefix is not known to be on-link ('L' bit is reset).

RFC 4861 :    =20
'
   Prefix Information options that have the "on-link" (L) flag set
   indicate a prefix identifying a range of addresses that should be
   considered on-link.  Note, however, that a Prefix Information option
   with the on-link flag set to zero conveys no information concerning
   on-link determination and MUST NOT be interpreted to mean that
   addresses covered by the prefix are off-link.
'
I'm still not in agreement with:

ND-15
 '
   A router MUST NOT set the 'L' (on-link) flag in the Prefix
   Information options, since that might trigger hosts to send multicast
   Neighbor Solicitations.
'
Which amongst other things indicates that multicast NS is always evil,
and thus seems to prohibit looking up an address that is determined to
be on link. When the link is 1 radio hop (route over), the operation is
not that evil, and is in fact a very good idea if there is an external
indication that the target is actually on-link.

Dear folks,

I have been very pleased to see that there is a new 6LoWPAN work item
which deals about transmission of IPv6 packets over Bluetooth Low Energy
(BT-LE). I would like to contribute to this topic.

I will next give some comments on draft-patil-6lowpan-v6over-btle-00:

- The introduction mentions some typical performance values of BT-LE. It
might be interesting to add more detail in a new (informative) section,
which might include text about the following:

   o The maximum rate of L2CAP payload per time unit is roughly 271 kbps
under ideal conditions. This performance parameter decreases strongly
with BER (and depends also on BT-LE parameters).

   o Data transfer can happen from once every 7.5 ms up to once every 32
seconds, depending on BT-LE parameter settings.

   o Data delivery latency once a BT-LE Link Layer connection is created
is roughly equal to 1 ms.

- BT-LE defines two Link Layer roles: the master and the slave. A device
in the master role is assumed to be less constrained than a device in the
slave role. The master can manage multiple simultaneous connections with a
number of slaves, whereas a slave is connected to a single master. Hence,
a BT-LE network (i.e. a BT-LE piconet) follows a star topology.

- Master and slave can correlate with 6LBR and 6LN (host). A BT-LE piconet
running IP would be a single-hop IP network.

- A significant difference between IEEE 802.15.4 and BT-LE is that the
former supports the mesh topology (and requires a routing protocol),
whereas BT-LE (per se) does not currently support the formation of mesh
networks.

- Section 3 states the 6LoWPAN specs that have to be supported by a BT-LE
node. It may be interesting to see which mechanisms of the current 6LoWPAN
specs are not necessary for BT-LE (e.g. the mesh under header of RFC 4944
will not be used since BT-LE does not support mesh topologies).

- The BT-LE L2CAP MTU (i.e. maximum L2CAP payload size) has to be
considered, as this is one of the most challenging elements. This MTU is
equal to 23 bytes. This means that a compressed IPv6 header containing
global addresses (which according to section 3.2 is 26 bytes) does not fit
into a single BT-LE packet (!!). In addition, the header overhead of BNEP
has to be taken into consideration.

- A mechanism for stateless address autoconfiguration based on BT-LE
identifiers is needed.

- The security considerations section may benefit from discussing the
following:
   o  BT-LE Link Layer supports encryption and authentication by using the
CCM mechanism and a 128-bit AES block cipher. CCM does not consume
bytes from the 23-byte L2CAP MTU (since these bytes have their own
field in the link layer data unit).
   o  Whereas key management is out of scope of IEEE 802.15.4 specs, BT-LE
provides SMP, a protocol for key management.

Some minor details:

- Section 2. I am not sure about whether the term 'BT-LE Physical Layer'
that appears at the bottom of the protocol stack includes also 'BT-LE Link
Layer'. Maybe this layer could be explicitly included in the figure.

- Section 3.1. "A BT-LE needs" -> "A BT-LE node needs"

All the best,

Carles

Hi Raj,

First of all, thanks for starting work in IPv6 over Bluetooth Low Energy.
I believe this will be an important item in order to expand even more the
Internet of Things. Bluetooth Low Energy is indeed expected to be present
in many daily life scenarios.

> Please wait for Rev 1 of the I-D by end of tomorrow for a better

Sure! :)

All the best,

Carles

Hi all,

I'd like to ask you about an issue regarding the I-D.ietf-6lowpan-nd. Secti=
ons 3.5 and 6.3 state that 6LRs and 6LBRs MAY create TENTATIVE NCEs when re=
ceiving Router Solicitations.

Section 3.5:

When a host interacts with a router by sending Router Solicitations

   this results in a Tentative NCE.

Section 6.3
 A Router Solicitation might be received from a host that has not yet

   registered its address with the router.  Thus the router MUST NOT
   modify an existing Neighbor Cache entry based on the SLLA option from
   the Router Solicitation.  However, a router MAY create a Tentative
   Neighbor Cache entry based on the SLLA option.  Such a Tentative
   Neighbor Cache entry SHOULD be timed out in TENTATIVE_NCE_LIFETIME
   seconds unless a registration converts it into a Registered NCE.

According to section 3.3 (Host to Router Interaction), a host only register=
s non-link-local addresses with routers:


 When a host has configured a non-link-local IPv6 address, it
   registers that address with one or more of its default routers using
   the Address Registration option (ARO) in an NS message.

Finally, sections 5.2 (Interface Initialization) and 5.3 (Sending a Router =
Solicitation) specify how RS messages are sent from hosts to Routers:

Section 5.2:

When the interface on a host is initialized it follows the
   specification in [RFC4861<http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4861>].  A link-=
local address is formed based on
   the EUI-64 identifier [EUI64<http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-6lowp=
an-nd-15#ref-EUI64>] assigned to the interface as per
   [RFC4944<http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4944>] or the appropriate IP-over=
-foo document for the link, and
   then the host sends Router Solicitation messages as described in
   [RFC4861] Section 6.3.7<http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4861#section-6.3.7=
>.

Section 5.3

Since hosts do not depend on multicast Router Advertisements to
   discover routers, the hosts need to intelligently retransmit Router
   Solicitations whenever the default router list is empty, one of its
   default routers becomes unreachable, or the lifetime of the prefixes
   and contexts in the previous RA are about to expire.

This makes me think that:

(1) The only valid source address a host has at bootstrapping, is the link-=
local address.
(2) Link-local address are not registered with routers
(3) If the default router list is empty, the case is the same that at boots=
trapping: the only valid address is the link-local address.
(4) When a router becomes unreachable or lifetimes are about to expire, the=
n it is likely that the corresponding router already has a NCE for that hos=
t.

Due to (1), (2), and (3), the only NCE a router may create shall contain th=
e host's link-local address. As this address is not registered (no NS with =
ARO for registration of that address will be sent), the NCE will inevitably=
 expire TENTATIVE_NCE_LIFETIME seconds after its creation.

Then, I do not see many situations when the effort of creating TENTATIVE NC=
Es upon arrival of RS messages is worth it. Indeed, as far as I understand,=
 multiple factors must occur in order that the creation of the TENTATIVE NC=
E makes sense and it ends up becoming a REGISTERED NCE.

Please, correct me if I am wrong, but I would say that this creation of TEN=
TATIVE NCEs is in most cases undesirable and, at least, some clarifications=
 regarding it would be required in the draft.

Regards,

Luis Maqueda

I submitted a version of draft-bormann-6lowpan-ghc that is fully =
implementable (i.e., it defines how to do GHC capability detection).
I also added an experimental extension of the compression called =
"nibblecode" -- I haven't made up my mind whether that is a good idea or =
too much complexity for too little gain (compression factor 1.30 in one =
example).

Again, enjoy at:
	http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-bormann-6lowpan-ghc

The two new sections clearly stand out at:
	=
http://tools.ietf.org/rfcdiff?url2=3Ddraft-bormann-6lowpan-ghc-02.txt

Any attempt at optimization is stupid without measurements.  About half =
of the non-boilerplate pages of the draft show how GHC compresses real =
packets.  *** I'm still looking for more packet captures from real =
6LoWPANs ***.  If you have anything with DHCP, DNS, or even TCP/HTTP on =

Dear authors,
I would speak about 6lowPAN hc-15 draft document.
Section 4 describes the ipv6 next header compression and in 4.2 ipv6  
extension header encoding is shown.
So incidentally in a 802.15.4 127 byte long packet I could have a mesh  
header and a fragmentation header like RFC4944 describes; after those  
a lowpan_IPCH dispatch with in-line ipv6 fields, like it is shown in  
figure 1 on page 5. All those headers (RFC4944 and figure 1 ones) in a  
single 802.15.4 packet.
But figure 11 on page 14 shows that we could have other headers like  
in IPv6 (so-called extension-header), and they could be heavy like  
router header or they grows on-the-fly like hop-by-hop header.
So my questions are: do those extension headers have to be present in  
every fragment of an IPv6 packet? And if it is so, doesn't it seem  
like wasting a lot of space? Let's say that I want to send a message  
and I have to write entirely the IPv6 source and destination addresses  
and I want a routing header too, even with 4 addresses, I fill 80 out  
of 127 bytes only for addresses. Is this example right or I understand  
wrongly the document?  And after these considerations, is it necessary  
to change the rule to calculate the datagram size field in RFC4944  
fragmentation header?

Hello Giulio,

There are two levels of fragmentation, I think that might be causing
confusion?

IPv6 level fragmentation DOES keep the IPv6 headers between fragments, for
example see
http://www.tcpipguide.com/free/t_IPv6DatagramSizeMaximumTransmissionUnitMTUF
ragment-4.htm .

6LoWPAN level fragmentation DOES NOT keep the IPv6 headers between
fragments. 6LoWPAN only repeats the 6LoWPAN header between fragments.

The 6LoWPAN MTU is (at least) 1280 bytes. Any packet larger than fits in a
single 15.4 packet but smaller or equal to the 6LoWPAN MTU will be
fragmented at the 6LoWPAN layer. Anything larger than the 6LoWPAN MTU would
have to be fragmented at the IPv6 layer by the sender, and each of those
IPv6 fragments may have 6LoWPAN fragmentation applied.

Hope this is a lucid explanation, let me know if it doesn't make sense.

Regards,

  -Colin O'Flynn

Hi folks,

The RFC4944 looks to be different in the version distributed by 
tools.ietf.org and datatracker.ietf.org / rfc-editor.org.

The figure 2 looks truncated on the tools.ietf.org version:

http://tools.ietf.org/rfc/rfc4944.txt
http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc4944.txt

Do you know what is the problem ? Document generation problem ? Where it 
should be reported ?

Thanks in advance,

Regards,

this figure.

I was more thinking about a different version of configuration of the
xml2rfc software.

Thanks to the one who corrected it.

The html are pdf version are also wrong:
http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4944
http://tools.ietf.org/pdf/rfc4944

The drafts are also wrong, both in txt, html and pdf:
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-6lowpan-format-13
http://tools.ietf.org/id/draft-ietf-6lowpan-format-13.txt
http://tools.ietf.org/pdf/draft-ietf-6lowpan-format-13.txt
(I did not check the older versions)

Any information about the problem ? It is limited to this RFC or can it
appears in some others ?

Hi All,

I just got a last minute notice from the session planner that the LWIG
meeting room has been changed to "Barcelona/Berlin" which is on the
Lobby level.   Time NOT changed.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

These two documents were clearly derived from very different sources: =
the page breaks are also quite different.

How on earth did that happen?

Hi,

(I only now became aware of this thread.  Bob Hinden forwarded the original
message to me, but I didn't note at the time that it was a list message.)

Anyway, here's the story:

The tools site never overwrites existing RFCs, so if it would happen that
a RFC by mistake had been placed in the RFC Editor's repository with the
wrong text, any correction put in place after the tools site had done the
initial download would not be overwritten.  I assumed that's what happened
here, and moved the first tools out of the way so that a new copy was
downloaded from the RFC Editor's repository.

I was in a rush at that time, however, preparing for the Saturday code sprint,
so I didn't take care to make the .pdf and .html copies be regenerated, which
is of course needed.  Done now, which takes care of the first part of the
comment below:

On 2011-03-27 03:00 Mathieu Goessens said the following:
> Thanks to the one who corrected it.
>
> The html are pdf version are also wrong:
> http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4944
> http://tools.ietf.org/pdf/rfc4944

Fixed.

> The drafts are also wrong, both in txt, html and pdf:
> http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-6lowpan-format-13
> http://tools.ietf.org/id/draft-ietf-6lowpan-format-13.txt
> http://tools.ietf.org/pdf/draft-ietf-6lowpan-format-13.txt
> (I did not check the older versions)

However, this I don't understand.  Drafts are never edited after being
submitted, so the explanation for how there could be 2 different copies
of the RFC doesn't apply here.  Furthermore, for the drafts above, I
don't see links to two conflicting copies -- in which way do you mean
that the drafts "are also wrong"?

> Any information about the problem ? It is limited to this RFC or can it
> appears in some others ?

I've come across I think two previous instances of the tools site grabbing
an early copy of an RFC, which was corrected before being announced, and I
handled that in the same way as this case.  The RFC editor's copy is always
the correct one, the way I see it.  I'm about to do a run across all of the
RFCs now on tools.ietf.org to see if there are any other cases of this.

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1

Dear All,

This email presents some comments regarding to the
draft-singh-6lowpan-global-connectivity-00,
I have found some issues which could be commented face to the meeting of
tomorrow and the future improvement of the draft.

First of all, this new draft presents with respect to
"6lowpan-global-connectivity-00.txt", some comments regarding to
issues,which are not addressed in the mentioned draft, for issues such as
AID size, AID mechanism, and mobility support.

First of all, in this new consideration for AID, it is considered the no
inclusion of AID for source address, since this could be determined
from stateless auto-configurability characteristics of IPv6 address, and
also because in case of mobility or multiples GWs, it could change its AID
for the source address frequently. I consider that this assumption regarding
to change of Locator (IP address for the source node) should be analyzed
deeply, since in some situations it is not so obvious to avoid the use of
source AID, for example when host ID from global IP is not being defined
with autoconfiguration based on link layer addressing, whose assumption is
not so clear for global IPs.

2- Regarding to the mobility issues, where a Mobile Node changes of GW, this
new GW has not knowledge about this mapping. This issue is not well
addressed, since in mobility one of the most important steps in "binding
transfer", where it is transfered the context information, sessions
information and pending packets from the previous GW to the new
one, therefore part of the information to be transfered is the information
presented in the Table 3, in Section 2.4, which can avoid this unknown of
the AIDs.

3- Section 4.1.3 comments that are defined messages for AID management such
as AID update message, AID request message, IPv6 update message, and IPv6
request message, in order to synchronize the knowledge between node and GW.

This is quite obvious that this signaling, presents probably more overload
that the bytes reduced in the header compression. Therefore, it should be
considered that AID is generated in an automatic way from GW and MN, for
example with a hash function. With respect to aliasing, since the table
3 considers the concrete node, this reduces considerably that possibility,
and only in case of aliasing should be considered some kind of common
mechanism such as add 1 to the value, since the node also is going to detect
the mentioned aliasing, it can be easily solved.

Remark, that or AID is automatically managed and generated, or whether it is
required AID update messages or equivalents, the performance of this
solution is highly questionable.

4-  Section 3.2.1 and 3.2.2 comment the mechanism followed when the AID is
not found etc. This discussion has not sense, since 1- such as mentioned it
needs to be automatized and 2- the mentioned des-synchronized should be
analyzed deeply, since probably several of the scenarios which requires this
message are because some problem has happened, other way it should be
syncronized with the basic mechanism, and such as mentioned for mobility it
is also synchronized.

5- Figures such as Figure 4 should be fixed, since they are not well
presented.

6- Figure 8 presents that AID size is flexible, I think this is wrong, since
this makes more complex the mechanism to determinate the AIDs in an
automatic way, in addition it can bring more discussion about how to update
previous BIT fields for the tables when the AID size
is dynamically increased etc.

7- I consider that the optimizations should focus on
draft-ietf-6lowpan-hc-15, which is in case of changes, where should be
applied, instead of RFC4944 which is going to be replaced in a short time.

8- Finally, I would like remark that AID idea could be an interesting option
for HC, but it should be deeply analyzed, and first of all, it should be
analyzed the relation between the proposed AID with the field ""Area context
site" used for Header Compression, in order to reach a higher compression,
since that context field is currently being used for Header compression and
in the 6CO option from Neighbor Discovery, and it could make more simplex
and effective the AID field.

Tomorrow in the meeting, it can be discussed some of these issues in the
minuted assigned to this draft.

Best regards,
Antonio Jara

I didn't see anybody else comment, so let me try.

I don't know what assumptions RPL makes in particular, but if we are 
talking about a general case of a routing protocol, I don't see why 
there would be a need to tell a difference between a host sending an ARO 
and a router (which might be initializing and haven't yet enabled 
routing and forwarding) sending an ARO.

In both cases I'd assume that the unicast address that is registered is 
something that should be reachable, hence it makes sense advertising 
reachability to that address.

If this isn't the case, then a routing protocol would typically find out 
about its neighboring routers IP addresses, and from that it can decide 
to treat those IP addresses differently than the addresses assigned to 
hosts.

It is in RFC 2710 on MLD; it describes that "join" implies.

MLD has an explicit exception for all-nodes as in
    The link-scope all-nodes address (FF02::1) is handled as a special
    case.  The node starts in Idle Listener state for that address on
    every interface, never transitions to another state, and never sends
    a Report or Done for that address.

For other multicast addresses, including link-locals, the expectation is 
that the host would join using MLD.

Note that 6lowpan-nd doesn't require hosts to join the solicited node 
multicast address; that would have required sending MLD reports to 
comply with RFC 2710.

For mesh-under 6lowpan-nd allows Redirect messages as a way for a router 
to inform a host about the L2 address of a host that is on the same 
(mesh-under) link. (For those not familiar with IPv6, unlike IPv4, the 
redirect message includes the L2 address.)

FWIW While 3.3 says that, there isn't any text which forbids a host from 
registering a link-local address.

Why would it be undesirable? I don't see where it would cause any harm.

Section 6.3 merely says that the router MAY create the tentative NCE. 
That was added to allow for routers which need an NCE in order to send 
e.g., a Router Advertisement.
Do we need to forbid that?

Hello,

as far as I understand RPL reachability is indeed advertised to both 6LR/6L=
Ns, the only distinction is that a 6LN (host) would operate as a RPL leaf n=
ode (as in section 8.5 of rpl-19). So a 6LR does not have to 'detect' first=
 whether another node is 6LR or 6LN.

best regards,
Esko Dijk

I didn't see anybody else comment, so let me try.

I don't know what assumptions RPL makes in particular, but if we are
talking about a general case of a routing protocol, I don't see why
there would be a need to tell a difference between a host sending an ARO
and a router (which might be initializing and haven't yet enabled
routing and forwarding) sending an ARO.

In both cases I'd assume that the unicast address that is registered is
something that should be reachable, hence it makes sense advertising
reachability to that address.

If this isn't the case, then a routing protocol would typically find out
about its neighboring routers IP addresses, and from that it can decide
to treat those IP addresses differently than the addresses assigned to
hosts.

Hosts don't take part in routing protocols, so I don't understand this =
sequence.
The only source of information about reachability and network =
configuration a host has is ND (and DHCP for some of the latter, if =
present).

Hi Erik:

RPL does not have an assumption on this ND operation in particular nor
on 4861. But then, the interworking of ND and RPL is left to further
work.
I hope this work happens somewhere someday. In particular, RPL is
prepared to redistribute external routes and that could include host
routes learnt from registration.
But then, RPL, like the backbone router draft operation, needs the TID
that is now gone from ND, to recognize the update from the stale when
the LBR states are distributed and clean up.

Cheers;

Pascal

As I mentioned in the meeting today, HC-15 is done.
You can watch its editorial progress on its way to RFC at:

http://www.rfc-editor.org/queue2.html#draft-ietf-6lowpan-hc

Thanks again Jonathan and Pascal for the diligent work on this document.

Usecases and Routing-Requirements need a few fixups to clear up IESG =
"discusses" and will then follow.
Finally we'll just have to finish ND-15, which should according to =
today's discussion not take too long either.

For those who weren't in Prague today:
The ADs have indicated that they then want to declare victory at that =
point -- followup documents will go to maintenance working groups such =
as intarea and 6man.  The 6lowpan mailing list will stay active, as we =
certainly will have a lot to discuss about the growing 6lowpan =
ecosystem.

Hi Erik

Thanks for clarification. This seems like an issue that falls in the 'no man's land" betwen RPL and 6lowpan.

>If this isn't the case, then a routing protocol would typically find out 
about its neighboring routers IP addresses, and from that it can decide 
to treat those IP addresses differently than the addresses assigned to 
hosts.

A router running RPL would not always know which of its registered neighbors are themselves RPL routers. This is because an RPL node must ignore any DIOs received from neighbors with higher (in numerical value) "rank". Also, a DAG parent may not receive    
a DAO from its child (In non-storing mode operation, it WON'T receive any DAO at all unless it is the DAG root and in storing mode, the child may decide not to send its DAO to this parent).

Now, we have 2 options:

1) Define an "Advertize on Behalf" flag in ARO as Anders proposed and have hosts set this flag when they send ARO inside a unicast NS to a 6LR. If the host later decides to become a 6LR, it can resend the ARO with this flag not set.

2) Lets write a "how to run RPL on a 6lowpan" document (as Pascal has suggested) that will specify how a received DIO/DAO from a neighbor can be used to mark that neighbor as a router in the registered neighbor cache.

Thanks
Mukul

I didn't see anybody else comment, so let me try.

I don't know what assumptions RPL makes in particular, but if we are 
talking about a general case of a routing protocol, I don't see why 
there would be a need to tell a difference between a host sending an ARO 
and a router (which might be initializing and haven't yet enabled 
routing and forwarding) sending an ARO.

In both cases I'd assume that the unicast address that is registered is 
something that should be reachable, hence it makes sense advertising 
reachability to that address.

If this isn't the case, then a routing protocol would typically find out 
about its neighboring routers IP addresses, and from that it can decide 
to treat those IP addresses differently than the addresses assigned to 
hosts.

Hi Esko

In RPL, a node can advertise reachability (in DAO messages) to its hosts and addresses in its sub-DAG. A node should (must?) not advertise reachability to any other addresses.

Also, a 6LN (host) need not know any thing about RPL at all. It can simply attach to a RPL router as a host. Any node that runs RPL is a router. An RPL leaf node is also a router.

Thanks
Mukul

Hello,

as far as I understand RPL reachability is indeed advertised to both 6LR/6LNs, the only distinction is that a 6LN (host) would operate as a RPL leaf node (as in section 8.5 of rpl-19). So a 6LR does not have to 'detect' first whether another node is 6LR or 6LN.

best regards,
Esko Dijk

I don't know what assumptions RPL makes in particular, but if we are
talking about a general case of a routing protocol, I don't see why
there would be a need to tell a difference between a host sending an ARO
and a router (which might be initializing and haven't yet enabled
routing and forwarding) sending an ARO.

In both cases I'd assume that the unicast address that is registered is
something that should be reachable, hence it makes sense advertising
reachability to that address.

If this isn't the case, then a routing protocol would typically find out
about its neighboring routers IP addresses, and from that it can decide
to treat those IP addresses differently than the addresses assigned to
hosts.

Hi Carsten

>Hosts don't take part in routing protocols

I agree absolutely.

>The only source of information about reachability and network configuration a host has is ND (and DHCP for some of the latter, if present).

I agree. That's why I think 6lowpan ND should provide a mechanism to clearly identify a registered neighbor as a 6lowpan host or a 6lowpan router.

Thanks

Hosts don't take part in routing protocols, so I don't understand this sequence.
The only source of information about reachability and network configuration a host has is ND (and DHCP for some of the latter, if present).

Greetings,

Just to clarify, please note that the version available
in the RFC Editor repository
(http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc4944.txt) is dated 24 Sept 2007, and
the RFC was announced on 25 Sept 2007.  The document has not been
altered or updated since it was published.

Please let us know if you have any questions.

Thank you.

RFC Editor

It is in RFC 2710 on MLD; it describes that "join" implies.

MLD has an explicit exception for all-nodes as in
    The link-scope all-nodes address (FF02::1) is handled as a special
    case.  The node starts in Idle Listener state for that address on
    every interface, never transitions to another state, and never sends
    a Report or Done for that address.

For other multicast addresses, including link-locals, the expectation is 
that the host would join using MLD.

Note that 6lowpan-nd doesn't require hosts to join the solicited node 
multicast address; that would have required sending MLD reports to 
comply with RFC 2710.

(maybe not so surprising, )
I would like to support Mukul.

RPL is one routing protocol, but 6LoWPAN may run under any routing =
protocol - or none at all.

In all cases, a sleeping node can benefit from asking a neighbor router =
to provide connectivity to that node.
To me this definitely sounds like a feature that belongs to the 6LoWPAN =
ND toolbox.

Thanks,

Hi Carsten

>Hosts don't take part in routing protocols

I agree absolutely.

>The only source of information about reachability and network =

I agree. That's why I think 6lowpan ND should provide a mechanism to =
clearly identify a registered neighbor as a 6lowpan host or a 6lowpan =
router.

Hosts don't take part in routing protocols, so I don't understand this =
sequence.
The only source of information about reachability and network =

present).

OK, so now I can send this "Advertize on Behalf" flag.
=20
As mentioned yesterday, there is a distinction between Frequently =
Listening (a.k.a duty cycled nodes) and
what I call call-back nodes, i.e. nodes that depend on a router holding =
a mailbox for that node.
Whether that mailbox feature is provided by any router, a few =
specialiezed routers or the border router
is a network implementation decision.
But how is that information conveyed to the sleeping node?
=20
In the RA?=20
By asking the default router with some new message?
Whereever this mailbox feature is offered in the network, this is where =
I will be sending=20
my "Advertize on Behalf" flag if I am a call-back node.
=20
Forgive me if this is obvious. I think I am getting close to a "detail =
overload" ;-)
=20
Thanks,
  Anders

Hosts don't take part in routing protocols, so I don't understand this =

Hi Carsten:

RPL recognizes a movement when a DAO information has a stale
DAOSequence. The DAOSequence is an information that the owner of the
advertised target increments.
If we define an interaction whereby we redistribute ND-15 into RPL, then
(probably) the RPL router will inject a host route on behalf of the
host.
When the RPL router injects such a route and then maintains that route,
it still has has to provide an idea of the freshness of the information
that it is injecting in a DAOSequence.
When the host moves to an alternate router, it would have to provide
something so that the new router sets an updated DAOSequence that the
routing update percolates up the DODAG.
IOW, without a TID, a host cannot efficiently move from a router to the
next.

People can find more on TID interactions with RPL and ND in
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-thubert-6lowpan-backbone-router-02 .
I'll see what I do with that draft; probably propose it to ROLL.

Pascal

For RPL, we probably need more than one bit. RPL needs a TID, and an =
instance ID will help quite a bit in some cases if the app is aware of =
it.

Other routing protocols might benefit from other information to improve =
their operation.

Once we figure what the abstract information is, then we'll probably =
have to define a way to carry that information from the host to the =
router.

Might be ND, but other people have already started a packetBB / RPL =
interwork, so at this point I do not know.

=20

Cheers,

(maybe not so surprising, )

I would like to support Mukul.

RPL is one routing protocol, but 6LoWPAN may run under any routing =
protocol - or none at all.


In all cases, a sleeping node can benefit from asking a neighbor router =
to provide connectivity to that node.
To me this definitely sounds like a feature that belongs to the 6LoWPAN =
ND toolbox.

Thanks,

Hi Carsten

>Hosts don't take part in routing protocols

I agree absolutely.

>The only source of information about reachability and network =

I agree. That's why I think 6lowpan ND should provide a mechanism to =
clearly identify a registered neighbor as a 6lowpan host or a 6lowpan =
router.

Thanks

Hosts don't take part in routing protocols, so I don't understand this =
sequence.
The only source of information about reachability and network =
configuration a host has is ND (and DHCP for some of the latter, if =
present).

As we discussed during yesterday's meeting, 6LoWPAN WG has a
non-milestone charter item for an "implementers guide" as a running
document that captures clarifications and small fixes to our
specifications. 

Carsten has submitted an initial proposal for such a document,
draft-bormann-6lowpan-roadmap-00.txt.  This document provides a skeleton
and does not have many clarifications yet, it could serve as a basis for
future work on that implementers guide.

This is a call for working group adoption of
draft-bormann-6lowpan-roadmap-00.txt.

Working group adoption does not mean we agree with every detail of the
draft, but that we want to use it as the basis of further working group
work.

Please reply to the list until

        Friday, April 8, 23:59 UTC

with your position whether this document should be adopted or not.

By way of explanation, in light of the announcement of the closing of =
the 6lowpan WG, let me clarify the WG status:

* there are no WG meetings planned for future IETF meetings
* documents that have already been adopted as WG documents
  will be processed
* the WG will consider draft-bormann-6lowpan-roadmap-00.txt

As you point out, there are lots of ways to do this.  No one
solution is going to work for everyone.  At one extreme this
can all be handled by the link layer.  It shouldn't matter
to the higher layers if a message is polled for, transmitted
according to some known schedule, or unicast immediately.

At the other end of the spectrum, it can all be handled at
the application layer, with the application polling to some
centralized mailbox which may be anywhere.

The middle ground, where ND and/or routing get involved,
seems dangerous to me, exactly because so many different
approaches are possible.

Both extremes were represented at the mic yesterday and there were =
certainly concerns with the middle ground approach.  In some cases, I =
think it will be a combination of both extremes.  The link layer knows =
best how to contact a duty-cycled node, while the application layer =
specifies the policy of what to do with packets that experience long =
communication latencies.  Having another mechanism in the middle would =
only add complexity in having to combine the particular link layer =
properties and application layer policies.

Subject: [6lowpan] WG adoption of 6lowpan Implementers guide

As we discussed during yesterday's meeting, 6LoWPAN WG has a
non-milestone charter item for an "implementers guide" as a running
document that captures clarifications and small fixes to our
specifications.

Carsten has submitted an initial proposal for such a document,
draft-bormann-6lowpan-roadmap-00.txt.  This document provides a skeleton
and does not have many clarifications yet, it could serve as a basis for
future work on that implementers guide.

This is a call for working group adoption of
draft-bormann-6lowpan-roadmap-00.txt.

Working group adoption does not mean we agree with every detail of the
draft, but that we want to use it as the basis of further working group
work.

Please reply to the list until

        Friday, April 8, 23:59 UTC

with your position whether this document should be adopted or not.

Considering only the one-hop problem of sleeping nodes seems to be the
recipe for uncontrolled congestion at - or close to - the sink. What we
really need is a congestion control operation that protects the network,
and that cannot be a one-hop operation.
Sleeping hops introduce latencies that need to be absorbed in outgoing
queues; something constrained devices do not exactly have aplenty.
Selective drops might help by intermediate nodes lack information for
doing that intelligently; in particular, dropping fragments actually
augments the load of the network.

ISA100.11a acknowledges that sleeping periods introduce latencies that
may be unusual in the classical internet, and mandates RFC 2988 for
calculating the retry timer-out interval (RTO).=20
ISA100.11a supports ECN, and refers to RFC3168. ECN is always enabled:
it CANNOT be turned off. ECN is set by L2 over the LoWPAN and stamped
into the IPv6 header when HC is uncompressed.
ISA100.11a also tags the packets with a Discard Eligible indication -
mostly for buffered unidirectional publication. This indication is set
by the application for use of the L2 as part of congestion control.
For queued bidirectional communication (R/W, RMI) ISA100.11a is
consistent with the behavior described at the mic above (and Core). Acks
are app layer Acks over UDP, they may carry data, and they are sensitive
to ECN.

What this boils down to is:
- ISA100 has identified a need for congestion control in the LLN. The
congestion control has to be an interaction between the LLN and the
transport/app level. It is unclear how ECN can work with 6LoWPAN
fragments.
- Classical ECN that is designed in conjunction with TCP does not
address properly congestions due to sensor data publication over UDP.
There is a need for an additional mechanism that is not described in
6LoWPAN.

I hope that this can all be addressed in core, though I'm not fully sure
the charter allows that.=20

Cheers,

Pascal

+1 
A mailbox mechanism for the sleeping node described in this thread should be
treated in the link layer as Jonathan indicated. The IEEE802.15.4e treats
what low energy mode is enabled, how long duty cycle is etc. and also
current IEEE802.15.4 has mode of operation direct transmission and indirect
transmission. If another L2 protocol addresses sleeping nodes, it should
also address such kind of mechanism in the L2 layer.
But a buffer (aka queue) as implemented in a normal router may be
implemented also in 6LR or 6LBR. Pascal indicated about ECN but we can
implement RED and it can work also for UDP for an easy solution.
I'm not sure the CORE WG is appropriate place to discuss a congestion
control mechanism to solve the issue in LLN since I'm afraid that it should
be discussed some place in transport area.

It appears I was a bit quick dismissing BT-LE as a working group item =
during Tuesday's 6LoWPAN meeting.  The WG is alive and well, so we can =
very well request the addition of milestones.  As the support in the =
room for working on the adaptation of 6LoWPAN for BT-LE was quite good, =
I'm now issuing a call for WG adoption.

This is a call for working group adoption of
draft-patil-6lowpan-v6over-btle-01.txt

Working group adoption does not mean we agree with every detail of the
draft, but that we want to use it as the basis of further working group
work.

Please reply to the list until

       Friday, April 8, 23:59 UTC

with your position whether this document should be adopted or not.

Gruesse, Carsten

That's what you get when you edit one message out of another.
It's been a long week...
Of course, this is about the BT-LE draft, not about the implementers =
guide.
Please make sure you reply with the subject of this message, in =
particular if it is just a "+1"...

Sorry for the confusion,

Dear 6LoWPANners,

Whereas the document is still in an early stage, I believe it will become
a very helpful document. Therefore, I support WG adoption of
draft-bormann-6lowpan-roadmap-00.txt.

Greetings,

Carles
