Dear 6Lo WG, Please find below the pointers to our draft-gomez-6lo-optimized-fragmentation-header-00 draft.
This document proposes a more lightweight and compact 6LoWPAN fragmentation header, compared with the one defined in RFC 4944. Those of you who are also following the LPWAN WG activity will realize that this is the same format that had been proposed for LPWAN in the past (*). However, in Berlin it was suggested that this format could be submitted for consideration of the 6lo WG. The motivation, some observations and the performance analysis in the document have been adapted to the 6LoWPAN / 6Lo context. Comments are welcome and appreciated! Cheers, Carles (*) An even more lightweight format, which however is not compatible with the 6LoWPAN dispatch, has now been defined for the LPWAN WG: https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-gomez-lpwan-fragmentation-header-03 ---------------------------- Original Message ---------------------------- Subject: New Version Notification for draft-gomez-6lo-optimized-fragmentation-header-00.txt From: [email protected] Date: Sun, October 23, 2016 9:15 pm To: "Jon Crowcroft" <[email protected]> "Carles Gomez" <[email protected]> "Josep Paradells" <[email protected]> -------------------------------------------------------------------------- A new version of I-D, draft-gomez-6lo-optimized-fragmentation-header-00.txt has been successfully submitted by Carles Gomez and posted to the IETF repository. Name: draft-gomez-6lo-optimized-fragmentation-header Revision: 00 Title: Optimized 6LoWPAN Fragmentation Header Document date: 2016-10-23 Group: Individual Submission Pages: 8 URL: https://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-gomez-6lo-optimized-fragmentation-header-00.txt Status: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-gomez-6lo-optimized-fragmentation-header/ Htmlized: https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-gomez-6lo-optimized-fragmentation-header-00 Abstract: RFC 4944 specifies 6LoWPAN fragmentation, in order to support the IPv6 MTU requirement over IEEE 802.15.4-2003 networks. The 6LoWPAN fragmentation header format comprises a 4-byte format for the first fragment, and a 5-byte format for subsequent fragments. This specification defines a more efficient 3-byte, optimized 6LoWPAN fragmentation header for all fragments. Please note that it may take a couple of minutes from the time of submission until the htmlized version and diff are available at tools.ietf.org.
