Subject: [6tisch] Last Call: <draft-ietf-6tisch-6top-protocol-09.txt> (6top Protocol (6P)) to Proposed Standard

The IESG has received a request from the IPv6 over the TSCH mode of IEEE
802.15.4e WG (6tisch) to consider the following document: - '6top Protocol
(6P)'
<draft-ietf-6tisch-6top-protocol-09.txt> as Proposed Standard

The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits final
comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the
ietf@ietf.org mailing lists by 2018-03-26. Exceptionally, comments may be
sent to iesg@ietf.org instead. In either case, please retain the beginning of
the Subject line to allow automated sorting.

Abstract

This document defines the 6top Protocol (6P), which enables
distributed scheduling in 6TiSCH networks. 6P allows neighbor nodes
to add/delete TSCH cells to one another. 6P is part of the 6TiSCH
Operation Sublayer (6top), the next higher layer to the IEEE Std
802.15.4 TSCH medium access control layer. The 6P layer is formed by
the 6top Protocol defined in this document and 6top Scheduling
Function(s). A 6top Scheduling Function (SF) decides when to add/
delete cells, and triggers 6P Transactions. This document lists the
requirements for an SF, but leaves the definition of SFs out of
scope.
