I support Kris point.

RFC 2464 for example indicates how to construct the link local address from
the MAC layer field

  The IPv6 link-local address [AARCH
<https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2464#ref-AARCH>] for an Ethernet
interface is
   formed by appending the Interface Identifier, as defined above, to
   the prefix FE80::/64.


In minimal, for example, we say what information to be used in the JP
field of the Synchronization IE or what specific IEs from all the
possible set have to be sent in the EB to advertise the network and
what are their specific values.

Both documents in my opinion build a link between the above and below
layers by defining a set of rules or conventions.

kind regards,
Xavi
