Hi Alexander,
(CCing both 6lo and SCHC WGs...)
In the 6lo session at IETF 123 (Madrid), you made a comment regarding two
terms defined in the "SCHC-Lo" draft [1]: "Single-end point networks" and
"Multiple-end point networks". You pointed out that these terms could be
confusing, and we hear your point (thanks for your comment!).
Currently, these terms are defined as follows (sections 3.2.2 and 3.2.3):
"In Single-end point networks, all network nodes that use SCHC for C/D
have a single SCHC Payload end point, and thus a single SoR for SCHC
Packet C/D."
"In Multiple-end point networks, at least some of the network nodes
that use SCHC for C/D have more than one SCHC Payload end point, and
thus one SoR associated to each SCHC Payload end point."
Perhaps these terms could be updated as shown next (note that, below, we
use "endpoint", instead of "end point" as defined in
draft-ietf-schc-architecture [2], aiming for hopefully better readability):
OLD:
- "Single-endpoint networks"
- "Multiple-endpoint networks"
NEW:
- "Single-endpoint-node networks"
- "Multiple-endpoint-node networks"
Few questions:
- Would the new terms be clearer?
- Should these terms be defined in the SCHC architecture draft instead of
defining them in the "SCHC-Lo" draft?
Of course, comments are welcome from everyone. :-)
Thanks,
Carles and Ana
