[rohc] Review of draft-bormann-rohc-over-802-00.txt

[Bernard Aboba <[e-mail]>]

Here's my review.  There may be some tricky issues to watch out for with
respect to negotiation of ROHC capabilities on IEEE 802 networks that
may make it difficult to achieve the desired level of uniformity.

Also, as noted by Mike Moreton:

"The IEEE RAC gets very upset about anyone using OUIs in a non-standard
way, so I doubt you'd get a lot of support for using the
locally administered or I/G bits to distinguish your frames.  However,
802.11 already uses a full LLC/SNAP header, so using such
a header would be fine for 802.11, and as you say elsewhere probably
wouldn't make a great deal of difference for 802.3.

I think the padding issue is interesting - it's funny how a drop-off in
the original Ethernet specification is still causing us
problems all these years later..."
