Technical Summary

   This document defines a new flag, the SNAC Router flag, in the Router
   Advertisement message that can be used to distinguish configuration
   information sent by SNAC routers from information sent by
   infrastructure routers.  This flag is used only by SNAC routers and
   is ignored by all other devices.

Working Group Summary

   The group reviewed a new flag in the RA; otherwise the main action
   is for documents over in the SNAC WG.

Document Quality

   There are implementations (e.g., OpenThread; see shepherd write-up).

Personnel

   The Document Shepherd for this document is Jen Linkova. The Responsible
   Area Director is Erik Kline.

IANA Note

   IANA is requested to allocate an RA flag (see section 4).
