Re: [manet] Recharter Discussion

["Dearlove, Christopher (UK)" <[e-mail]>]

Multicast is the obvious top item. Lots of possible approaches, time to discuss.

Gateways for AODVv2 at Standard is obviously not possible since AODVv2 is going to be Experimental at most.

Management we did of course have an NHDP/OLSRv2 draft killed by AD. Which since NHDP/OLSRv2 us all we have (SMF excepted) that was a bit tricky.

I would have to make an IPR declaration to say some of what I might have to say about encryption. Not today.

Missing from the list is any work on OLSRv2 (or NHDP). MT-OLSRv2 is experimental. That would need implementation tests to advance to PS. Anyone interested in that (I’m not saying I can)?

More broadly on OLSRv2 there are various things that could be done, but what is really needed is people with a real application. Any that exist were frightened away from this group.

I'll start things off by floating the draft re-charter which was presented in Prague.



The purpose of the MANET working group is to standardize IP routing protocol functionality suitable for wireless routing application within both static and dynamic topologies with increased dynamics due to node motion or other factors.



Approaches are intended to be relatively lightweight in nature, suitable for multiple hardware and wireless environments, and address scenarios where MANETs are deployed at the edges of an IP infrastructure. Hybrid mesh infrastructures (e.g., a mixture of fixed and mobile routers) should also be supported by MANET specifications and management features.



The MANET WG is responsible for the maintenance of OLSRv2, AODVv2, DLEP and NHPD. Of particular interest: border behavior between MANET networks and fixed IP network infrastructures, enhance AODVv2 gateway functionality; security enhancements, encryption security extensions for RFC5444.



The MANET WG will standardize a multicast MANET protocol framework based on previous work and lessons learned for scoped forwarding within MANET networks.  As part of this framework the WG will produce a well defined MANET multicast forwarding information base.



The WG will produce an informational draft outlining challenges and best practices for deploying and managing MANET networks.



The MANET WG will interact with the PIM working group on issues relating to the multicast work.  The WG will also pay attention to other IETF and IRTF work that is addressing topics related to MANET environments.



In summary, the WG will develop the following drafts:



MANET Management Document (Informational)

MANET Maintenance

 - RFC5444 Security extension (Standards)

 - Enhanced AODVv2 gateway extension (Standards)

MANET Multicast

 - Multicast FIB (Standards)





This will likely be considered too broad to pass.  We will likely need to cut some and focus the work.  For me personally I know I have the time and backing to work on the Multicast piece.
