Dear ROLL WG members,

As we all know that loop is an open issue in RPL. Experiment shows that 
loop occurs quite often. We have proposed a loop free local DODAG repair 
solution. The proposed repair method does not increase rank, and 
therefore, it does not create any loop. Also, the proposed repair method 
does not require any modification to RPL and works for both storing mode 
and non-storing mode of RPL. It provides benefits to RPL.

The detailed solution is specified in 
draft-guo-roll-loop-free-dodag-repair-00. Please review the draft. Your 
comments and feedback are welcome.

Best regards,
