[Roll] Fwd: New Version Notification for draft-ko-roll-mix-network-pathology-00.txt

Hi ROLL WG!

Please review and provide me comments regarding the document submitted below in which we discuss about a hybrid downwards routing mode where storing and non-storing mode nodes can interoperate! :)

Looking forward to some exciting discussions! :)

Thanks!

-John

> Abstract:
>   Nodes can run RPL in storing or non-storing modes for downward
>   routing.  When a downward-bound packet traverses a node running in
>   storing to a node running in non-storing mode, there is a routing
>   pathology that makes the packet bounce between the two nodes.  Due to
>   this pathology, the packet never reaches the destination if it lies
>   beyond these nodes in the multi-hop path.  The solution is to mandate
>   that all the nodes parse and interpret source routing headers and
>   storing nodes to sometimes act like non-storing mode root.
