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:
- 'Minimal 6TiSCH Configuration'
  <draft-ietf-6tisch-minimal-17.txt> as Best Current Practice

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 2016-12-20. 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 describes a minimal mode of operation for a 6TiSCH
   Network.  It provides IPv6 connectivity over a Non-Broadcast Multi-
   Access (NBMA) mesh composed of IEEE802.15.4 Timeslotted Channel
   Hopping (TSCH) links.  This minimal mode uses a collection of
   protocols including the 6LoWPAN framework to enable interoperable
   IPv6 connectivity over IEEE802.15.4 TSCH with minimal network
   configuration and infrastructure.
