The IESG has approved the following document: - 'IPv6 Wireless Access in Vehicular Environments (IPWAVE): Problem Statement and Use Cases' (draft-ietf-ipwave-vehicular-networking-30.txt) as Informational RFC This document is the product of the IP Wireless Access in Vehicular Environments Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Erik Kline and Éric Vyncke. A URL of this Internet Draft is: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-ipwave-vehicular-networking/ Technical Summary The document introduces different use cases of interest for IPv6-based vehicular networking for Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS). Then, it describes an example vehicular network architecture supporting V2V, V2I, and V2X communications as a baseline for further discussion about current IPv6 protocols with respect to IPv6 neighbor discovery, mobility management, security, and privacy. Finally, some requirements for future work are offered. Working Group Summary Initially, the IPWAVE WG was chartered to work on documents: one informational document explaining the state of the art in the field and describe the use cases for IPv6, and another informational document describing the problem statement, including associated security and privacy considerations. The charter indicated that the working group would decide at a future point whether these informational documents needed to be published separately as RFCs or if they could be combined. It was decided at the beginning of the process to combine them, without any controversy. The document has required a lot of time to progress, due to the low energy level of the IPWAVE WG. Last Call resulted in feedback about missing RPL references and the inclusion of reference to not-present-adopted OMNI work. Document Quality The document is informational, and therefore does not include any protocol specification, so no implementations exist. The document went through many iterations, as it originally had an academic flavor, and did not properly serve its purpose of identifying key gaps that require protocol development. This has been improved in the last revisions. Overall, the document has a good quality. The document has been reviewed in several occasions (more than 10) by several IPWAVE WG participants and external reviewers recruited by the WG chairs and the document editor. None of the reviewers has expressed concerns with latest version of the Internet-Draft. The INT-DIR review performed by Pascal Thubert was especially detailed and the author worked to address a broad array of comments. Personnel Carlos J. Bernardos is the Document Shepherd. Erik Kline is the responsible Area Director.
