IETF RFC 8138
IPv6 over Low-Power Wireless Personal Area Network (6LoWPAN) Routing Header
Organization: | IETF |
Publication Date: | 1 April 2017 |
Status: | active |
Page Count: | 37 |
scope:
This specification introduces a new IPv6 over Low-Power Wireless Personal Area Network (6LoWPAN) dispatch type for use in 6LoWPAN route-over topologies, which initially covers the needs of Routing Protocol for Low-Power and Lossy Networks (RPL) data packet compression (RFC 6550). Using this dispatch type, this specification defines a method to compress the RPL Option (RFC 6553) information and Routing Header type 3 (RFC 6554), an efficient IP-in-IP technique, and is extensible for more applications.
