The IESG has approved the following document: - 'IPv6 Mesh over BLUETOOTH(R) Low Energy using IPSP' (draft-ietf-6lo-blemesh-10.txt) as Proposed Standard
This document is the product of the IPv6 over Networks of Resource-constrained Nodes Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Erik Kline and Éric Vyncke. A URL of this Internet Draft is: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-6lo-blemesh/ Technical Summary This document enables IPv6 mesh over BLE networks. For enabling IPv6 mesh, the document specifies the use of Neighbor discovery, header compression and address autoconfiguration in context to multi-hop BLE links. The document utilizes BLE's IPSP profile support which can be used for IPv6 communication on top of BLE links. Note however that the use of routing protocol is required for routing the packets and choosing appropriate parent set etc and is beyond the scope of this document. Working Group Summary This draft has been discussed by 6lo working group and some of the BLE SIG experts. Document Quality Nothing unusual to note. The authors have a prototype implementation but there is no production implementation.
