Dear all,
I'm currently working on routing protocols at sensor networks following the
guidelines marked by 6lowpan WG.
I have continued with interest the evolutions of routing protocols indicated
in both drafts LOAD and DYMO,
and precisely I would like to denote the recent expiration of the draft
describing the last one of these protocols.
This initial draft DYMO-low-routing-00 expired last April 15, without no
reference since its publication in this list. The only reference was
some discussion on list stating the benefits offered by DYMO. The only
reference in this list was a brief discussion to determine the advantages
among the above mentioned protocol and the solution offered by LOAD, without
any technical discussion that brings over of its functionality and
specifications. Is there any interest on continuing ther work with Dymo-low ?
Also I would like to give some comments related to the above mentioned
protocol considering inaccuracies with the usage of sequence numbers.
draft-montenegro-6lowpan-dymo-low-routing-00 (Section 4.7 ):
This section states that the sequence numbers follow DYMO's
directives, nevertheless in the definition of the Routing Table structure
lacks
on a specific field to store information relative to the above mentioned
parameter. As well I think it should be most accurately described on the way
they should be used.
As well, is there any directive on how to add sequence numbers on LOAD specs?
last comments point out that this functionality should be necessary
to prevent routing loops if we want to use local repair functionality
Sincerely
