The IESG has approved the following document: - 'Root-initiated Routing State in RPL' (draft-ietf-roll-dao-projection-40.txt) as Proposed Standard
This document is the product of the Routing Over Low power and Lossy networks Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Gunter Van de Velde, Jim Guichard and John Scudder. A URL of this Internet-Draft is: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-roll-dao-projection/ Technical Summary This document extends RFC 6550, RFC 6553, and RFC 8138 to enable a RPL Root to install and maintain Projected Routes within its DODAG. A Projected Route is one that is computed by a central entity, such as a Path Computation Engine (PCE) and installed in the routers that instantiate it, using the procedures defined here. The routes are installed along a selected set of nodes that may or may not include itself, for a chosen duration. This potentially enables routes that are more optimized or resilient than those obtained with the classical distributed operation of RPL, either in terms of the size of a Routing Header or in terms of path length, which impacts both the latency and the packet delivery ratio. Working Group Summary The WG consensus as described in the shepherd writeup appears normal for the ROLL WG. Document Quality The shepherd writeup doesn't note any existing implementations: "No implementation known. Students presented interest to implement in near future." This is, again, not out of the ordinary for this technology and WG. Personnel The Document Shepherd for this document is Ines Robles. The Responsible Area Director is John Scudder. _______________________________________________ IETF-Announce mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe send an email to [email protected]
