Hello Satish and All,

While the child can't initiate the candidate list by pinning down the cells, it should have have the ability to indicate the delay bounds to the parent so that the parent can try to locate cells that meet this requirement. The child can then
choose what is appropriate. Does this sound reasonable ?

We have not considered that both models can be used at the same time. In case this is needed, the metadata field can be used to indicate that. > Pascal: If the requester is a child, then it does not know which chunk is owned by the parent and it cannot propose a candidate list of cells.

Assume node A is a Child of node B, then usually node B has more knowledge about the cell usage, right? But sometime, the Child may find the need to ADD more cells. In this case, the Child will take 3-step transaction to send ADD request to its parent (node B).

In step 4 of 3-step transaction, there is a mistake. The SF running on node B selects 2 cells is written.

Regarding concurrent requests, the draft-wang-6tisch-6top-protocol-00 says A node MAY support concurrent 6P Transactions from different neighbors in Section 4.3.3.
