Hi Sedat,
I agree your use cases should be considered and I can see your point. Let's see 
if there are other comments from others. 
ThanksQin

 Hi Qin,
There are quite a few situations where is would be beneficial to just send a 
directional CLEAR request with cellOption. For example, if I want to delete 
lets say all transmit slots from A to B, DELETE will require the packet to 
include all the cell list allocated between the pair so it might be cumbersome. 
Also, If I am in the middle of a cell allocation transaction and decided to 
CLEAR my TX cells to my current next hop and move on, I do not exactly know how 
many cells have been allocated and what they are.
Does that make sense ?

Regards,
Sedat

Hi Sedat,
I think CLEAR is usually used when inconsistency in schedules of a pair of 
nodes is detected. In your case, DELETE, instead of CLEAR, can be used. In 
addition, DELETE already has CellOption field. Make sense?
ThanksQin

 Dear All, 
We think it might be  a good idea to have a cell option field in the 6P clear 
command. In some cases, we might want to delete only the transmit/receive slots 
to our neighbor and keep the receive/transmit slots to that neighbor. One 
example can be such that when a child node in a RPL network changes its parent, 
it will need to delete its transmit cells to its parent. But,  it might want to 
keep its receive cells since there might be an ongoing communication happening 
to another part of the network in the opposite direction which might be 
negatively affected due to this change ( example can be a previously allocated 
track).  
Any comments and suggestions are welcome.

Kind Regards,
Sedat
