A new Request for Comments is now available in online RFC libraries. RFC 8930 Title: On Forwarding 6LoWPAN Fragments over a Multi-Hop IPv6 Network Author: T. Watteyne, Ed., P. Thubert, Ed., C. Bormann Status: Standards Track Stream: IETF Date: November 2020 Mailbox: thomas.watteyne@analog.com, pthubert@cisco.com, cabo@tzi.org Pages: 12 Updates/Obsoletes/SeeAlso: None I-D Tag: draft-ietf-6lo-minimal-fragment-15.txt URL: https://www.rfc-editor.org/info/rfc8930 DOI: 10.17487/RFC8930 This document provides generic rules to enable the forwarding of an IPv6 over Low-Power Wireless Personal Area Network (6LoWPAN) fragment over a route-over network. Forwarding fragments can improve both end-to-end latency and reliability as well as reduce the buffer requirements in intermediate nodes; it may be implemented using RFC 4944 and Virtual Reassembly Buffers (VRBs). 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.
