Hi Yuehua,

That was a question to the authors. I am sure Pascal Thubert, one of the
authors can help.
What I meant is the typically IOT network of special devices (sensors,
cameras,  mini-robots etc. battery operated devices)  form  a separate
network (mesh or  RPL-RFC6550  like DAG) which runs  IOT routing protocols,
but the network is connected to the regular IP(v6/v4) network through a
gateway which can speak to both sides. Now the question is - if this
scenario requires any special applicability mentioning in this draft or
not?

Thanks for your prompt response,
-Samita
