I support to move this document to IESG.

I'm sad that the TID issue was not resolved, which means that there will be a 
problem for interop with the backbone router and RPL.

Cheers,

Pascal

Standard


The IESG has received a request from the IPv6 over Low power WPAN WG
(6lowpan) to consider the following document:
- 'Neighbor Discovery Optimization for Low Power and Lossy Networks
   (6LoWPAN)'
  <draft-ietf-6lowpan-nd-18.txt> as a Proposed Standard

The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits final 
comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the 
ietf(_at_)ietf(_dot_)org mailing lists by 2012-01-04. Exceptionally, comments 
may be sent to iesg(_at_)ietf(_dot_)org instead. In either case, please retain 
the beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting.

Abstract


   The IETF 6LoWPAN working group defines IPv6 over Low-power Wireless
   Personal Area Networks such as IEEE 802.15.4.  This and other similar
   link technologies have limited or no usage of multicast signaling due
   to energy conservation.  In addition, the wireless network may not
   strictly follow traditional concept of IP subnets and IP links.  IPv6
   Neighbor Discovery was not designed for non-transitive wireless
   links.  The traditional IPv6 link concept and heavy use of multicast
   make the protocol inefficient and sometimes impractical in a low
   power and lossy network.  This document describes simple
   optimizations to IPv6 Neighbor Discovery, addressing mechanisms and
   duplicate address detection for 6LoWPAN and similar networks.  The
   document, thus updates RFC 4944 to specify the use of the
   optimizations defined here.
