Hi Pascal and All, I have read this I-D. I support to adopt it as the working group draft if it addresses the following comment:
~~~ Beginning of Comment ~~~ In 6TiSCH architecture and terminology working group documents, the concept of ?Bundle? has been proposed to represent a link between nodes. For example, in the architecture I-D: ?With 6TiSCH, the link abstraction is implemented as a bundle of cells; the size of a bundle is optimal when both the energy wasted idle listening and the packet drops due to congestion loss are minimized. This can be maintained if the number of cells in a bundle is adapted dynamically, and with enough reactivity, to match the variations of best-effort traffic.? In the terminology I-D: ?A bundle represents a half-duplex link between nodes, one transmitter and one or more receivers, with a bandwidth that amount to the sum of the cells in the bundle. A bundle is globally identified by (source MAC, destination MAC, TrackID). At Layer 3 a pair of bundles forms a link. By usining a well-known constant, NULLT, as TrackId for a L3 link, the IP link between adjacent nodes A and B comprises 2 bundles: (macA, macB, NULLT) and (macB, macA, NULLT).? Therefore, since 6top I-D aims to enable distributed scheduling, I suggest that the 6top protocol should support ?Bundle? as defined in the architecture and terminology I-Ds; For example, to contain the bundle information in 6P messages in Section 4.2. ~~~ End of Comment ~~~ -----Original Message----- From: 6tisch [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Pascal Thubert (pthubert) Sent: Monday, April 18, 2016 12:20 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [6tisch] Call for adoption for draft-wang-6tisch-6top-protocol-00 Dear All: Following up on the rough consensus at the 6TiSCH WG meeting at IETF 95: This is a call for adoption of draft-wang-6tisch-6top-protocol-00 which details the 6P protocol and proposes a solution for a chartered item. Please respond by Friday to this mail indicating whether you agree or not with this adoption, and preferably provide some rationale to support your position. The chairs will evaluate the consensus at the interim, and decide whether the adoption is confirmed or the call needs to be prolonged. Thanks un advance!
