RFC 5444 specifies a generalized Mobile Ad Hoc Network (MANET)
packet/message format and describes an intended use for multiplexed
MANET routing protocol messages; this use is mandated by RFC 5498 when
using the MANET port or protocol number that it specifies. This
document updates RFC 5444 by providing rules and recommendations for
how the multiplexer operates and how protocols can use the
packet/message format. In particular, the mandatory rules prohibit a
number of uses that have been suggested in various proposals and that
would have led to interoperability problems, to the impediment of
protocol extension development, and/or to an inability to use optional
generic parsers.
This document is a product of the Mobile Ad-hoc Networks Working Group of the IETF.
This is now a Proposed Standard.
STANDARDS TRACK: This document specifies an Internet Standards Track
protocol for the Internet community, and requests discussion and suggestions
for improvements. Please refer to the current edition of the Official
Internet Protocol Standards (https://www.rfc-editor.org/standards) for the
standardization state and status of this protocol. Distribution of this
memo is unlimited.
