Is it within the scope of 6lowpan to define key management and frame counter synchronization mechanisms for 15.4?

Not now, but we are on the brink of rechartering.

It very much *is* in the scope right now to have a problem statement/ security analysis that prepares this.

To quote:

6. Produce "6LoWPAN Security Analysis" to define the threat model of
6LoWPANs, to document suitability of existing key management
schemes and to discuss bootstrapping/installation/commissioning/setup
issues. This document will be referenced from the "security
considerations" of the other 6LoWPAN documents.
This document will be informational.

So if an argument can be made that e.g. frame counter synchronization is a good way to solve replay, let's go ahead and write this up.

Gruesse, Carsten
