Near Field Communication (NFC) is a set of standards for smartphones
and portable devices to establish radio communication with each other
by touching them together or bringing them into proximity, usually no
more than 10 cm apart.  NFC standards cover communication protocols
and data exchange formats and are based on existing Radio Frequency
Identification (RFID) standards, including ISO/IEC 14443 and FeliCa.
The standards include ISO/IEC 18092 and those defined by the NFC
Forum.  The NFC technology has been widely implemented and available
in mobile phones, laptop computers, and many other devices.  This
document describes how IPv6 is transmitted over NFC using IPv6 over
Low-Power Wireless Personal Area Network (6LoWPAN) techniques.

This document is a product of the IPv6 over Networks of Resource-constrained Nodes Working Group of the IETF.

This is now a Proposed Standard.

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 Official
Internet Protocol Standards (https://www.rfc-editor.org/standards) for the 
standardization state and status of this protocol.  Distribution of this 
memo is unlimited.
