The Routing Protocol for Low-Power and Lossy Networks (RPL)
specification defines a generic Distance Vector protocol that is
adapted to a variety of network types by the application of specific
Objective Functions (OFs). An OF states the outcome of the process
used by a RPL node to select and optimize routes within a RPL
Instance based on the Information Objects available; an OF is not an
algorithm.
This document specifies a basic Objective Function that relies only
on the objects that are defined in the RPL and does not use any
protocol extensions. [STANDARDS-TRACK]
This document is a product of the Routing Over Low power and Lossy networks
Working Group of the IETF.
This is now a Proposed Standard Protocol.
STANDARDS TRACK: This document specifies an Internet standards track
protocol for the Internet community,and requests discussion and suggestions
for improvements. Please refer to the current edition of the Internet
Official Protocol Standards (STD 1) for the standardization state and
