The IESG has approved Transmission of IPv6 Packets over Frame Relay Networks Specification <draft-ietf-ion-ipv6-fr-02.txt> as a Proposed Standard. This document is the product of the Internetworking Over NBMA Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Jeffrey Burgan and Thomas Narten. Technical Summary This document defines how to run IPv6 over Frame Relay networks. The formation of interface IDs (for generating addresses via stateless address autoconfiguration), the encapsulation format, the mapping of IPv6 addresses to Frame Relay addresses, and the contents of the Source/Target link-layer address option for Neighbor Discovery are all discussed. This document is a companion to "IPv6 over Non-Broadcast Multiple Access (NBMA) networks", RFC 2491. Working Group Summary The WG supported the approach outlined in this document. No issues were raised during the Last Call. Protocol Quality This protocol has been reviewed for the IESG by Thomas Narten.
