Hi Pascal,

I would like to ask you some questions about your interesting draft.

1- You say " But in reality, IPv6 multicast

   messages are typically broadcast on the wireless medium, and so they
   are processed by most of the wireless nodes over the subnet (e.g.,
   the ESS fabric).


most, some or all nodes?


2- In the text you mentioned IEEE 802.11p. You need to replace it by
IEEE 802.11-OCB since the 'p' is no more used by IEEE and it has been
replaced by OCB.

See https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-ipwave-ipv6-over-80211ocb-52


3- I think there are some duplications in the text about the fact that "....

   in all the cases in this specification, the Layer-3 multicast
   operation is always a MAC_Layer broadcast for the lack of a Layer-2
   multicast operation that could handle a possibly very large number
ofgroups in order to make the unicast efficient."

Already mentioned in the introduction section.


4- You mentionned the example of cars using RPL (Route-Over MLSN)

I think that cars do not belong to LLNs category.



Yours.


Best regards
Nabil Benamar
