Re: [6lowapp] Fwd: New Version Notification for draft-sturek-6lowapp-smartenergy-00

Hi John,

I don't think we should make such a requirement for the access side of the
meter.  I agree with you that using public ISPs will likely mean using IPv4
in many cases.

However, for the HAN we are expecting to use just IPv6 due to the critical
limitation on IPv4 addresses and the desire to do direct addressing.

Re: requirement-1 in section 2.1, states that "end-2-end IPv6" is required
across both back-end systems and embedded networks in Smart Energy.

I'm curious if this requirement can be met for an AMI deployment over the
public Internet (not all ISPs support v6 yet ..)
