Hi Jianquiang and co-authors: I have browsed through the draft and thank you for bringing this work at IETF.
A few comments and questions: 1) Is it safe to assume that all the nodes in PLC network are line-powered? 2) How does the IPv6 addresses are assigned in the mesh or tree network? 3) In the abstract the document talks about RFC6775, but originally G3-PLC started using RFC 4861 IPv6-ND, is there a plan to adapt to 6lowpan-nd (RFC 6775) ARO messages toward the PAN-co-ordinator or LBR ? 4) Section 4.1.3 talks about address mapping for 64-bit MAC address or 16-bit short address and there is one line on possibility of non-MAC address derived addresses for privacy. Can you please elaborate/recommend the privacy address procedure based on RFC 8065 ? Also, please indicate when to use short-addresses and when to use 64bit ID based addresses in PLC networks (such as local and Internet connectivity)? 5) Section 4.2.6 documents the 6lowpan extension headers and ESC dispatch type usage. In the appendix or somewhere in the document, please explain the use of command id and need for the extension in a short paragraph. Please refer to RFC 8066 in the ESC header byte context and make sure it follows the guideline described there. 6) Please provide an example of header orders(with diagrams) used in PLC network from node to the LBR of PLC network. Does it always use Mesh header along with IPHC?
