Hello Randy The SF actually triggers 6top messages for bandwidth allocation and the messages can carry opaque (to 6P) SF chat. So no it is not entirely internal algorithms.

It’s just an internal set of algorithms ? If so, you could probably leave this off as “internal APIs” or non on-the-wire functionality would not fit with the rest of the diagram - if non on-the-wire functionality is included then some type of visual cue would be needed by RPL to indicate that RPL does not only utilize ICMPv6 for its’ functionality but also probably needs connectivity with the “IPv6” block for routing table access, or connectivity down to the TSCH block for neighbor table state changes, etc. However, all that being said, it’s not a big deal, I’m interpreting this stack as an “on the wire” layering showing where protocol headers are encapsulated/deencapsulated, and I’m assuming there’s a scheduling function somewhere, but it’s really not a protocol layer. Am I interpreting this correctly? Thx, Randy On Nov 29, 2017, at 3:31 AM, Pascal Thubert (pthubert) <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: Hello Yatch: Great point. You’ll note that 6P runs at the top of the MAC and below 6LoWPAN and IP, so I’d rather not group it as you suggest.

It would look like...
