Hi ACP co-authors, (Maybe you missed my last mail "Regarding ACP routing protocol", let me re-post it with a clearer title and CC to you.)
When I discuss ACP with some product people, they are always curious about why we choosed RPL for routing. I understand the benefits of RPL in ACP, it is lightweight and much more scalable in a single routing area, but most of the non-IoT network devices seem lacking the support of RPL. So, please pardon my iteration on this problem, can we possibly make another traditional IGP literally legal in the ACP document? (e.g. ISIS-autoconf or OSPFv3-autoconf) I know supporting multiple protocols would potentially cause interoperation issues. But in some closed solutions, multi-vendor interoperation is not the No.1 consideration for customers. If ACP allows ISIS-autoconf or OSPFv3-autoconf, I think ACP could be more widely adopted in non-IoT network scenarios. Any comments/eggs? :) B.R.
