Abstract:
   In a classical network the link layer is responsible for transferring
   a datagram between two nodes that are connected by a single link,
   possibly including switches.  In a quantum network however, the link
   layer will need to provide a robust entanglement generation service
   between two quantum nodes which are connected by a quantum link.
   This service can be used by higher layers to produce entanglement
   between distant nodes or to perform other operations such as qubit
   transmission, without full knowledge of the underlying hardware and
   its parameters.  This draft defines what can be expected from the
   service provided by a link layer for a Quantum Network and defines an
   interface between higher layers and the link layer.
