The IESG has received a request from the IPv6 Maintenance WG (6man) to consider the following document: - 'An IPv6 Routing Header for Source Routes with RPL' <draft-ietf-6man-rpl-routing-header-04.txt> as a 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 2011-10-31. 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 In Low power and Lossy Networks (LLNs), memory constraints on routers may limit them to maintaining at most a few routes. In some configurations, it is necessary to use these memory constrained routers to deliver datagrams to nodes within the LLN. The Routing for Low Power and Lossy Networks (RPL) protocol can be used in some deployments to store most, if not all, routes on one (e.g. the Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG) root) or few routers and forward the IPv6 datagram using a source routing technique to avoid large routing tables on memory constrained routers. This document specifies a new IPv6 Routing header type for delivering datagrams within a RPL domain. The file can be obtained via http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-6man-rpl-routing-header/ IESG discussion can be tracked via http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-6man-rpl-routing-header/ No IPR declarations have been submitted directly on this I-D.
