The IESG has received a request from the IP Wireless Access in Vehicular Environments WG (ipwave) to consider the following document: - 'Basic support for IPv6 over IEEE Std 802.11 Networks operating Outside the Context of a Basic Service Set (IPv6-over-80211-OCB)' <draft-ietf-ipwave-ipv6-over-80211ocb-46.txt> as Proposed Standard
The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits final comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the [email protected] mailing lists by 2019-06-26. Exceptionally, comments may be sent to [email protected] instead. In either case, please retain the beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting. Abstract This document provides methods and settings, and describes limitations, for using IPv6 to communicate among nodes in range of one another over a single IEEE 802.11-OCB link with minimal change to existing stacks. Optimizations and usage of IPv6 over more complex scenarios is not covered and is subject of future work. The file can be obtained via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-ipwave-ipv6-over-80211ocb/ IESG discussion can be tracked via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-ipwave-ipv6-over-80211ocb/ballot/ No IPR declarations have been submitted directly on this I-D. The document contains these normative downward references. See RFC 3967 for additional information: rfc3753: Mobility Related Terminology (Informational - IETF stream) rfc7721: Security and Privacy Considerations for IPv6 Address Generation Mechanisms (Informational - IETF stream) rfc5889: IP Addressing Model in Ad Hoc Networks (Informational - IETF stream) rfc6959: Source Address Validation Improvement (SAVI) Threat Scope (Informational - IETF stream)
