Technical Summary

   This document updates RFC 8138 by defining a bit in the RPL DODAG
   Configuration Option to indicate whether compression is used within
   the RPL Instance, and specify the behavior of RFC 8138-capable nodes
   when the bit is set and reset.

Working Group Summary

   The process through the WG was uneventful.  The single objection argued
   that this was not the right mechanism, but no alternative was proposed.

Document Quality

   There are no implementations of this extension.  It is an important component 
   to enable the deployment of RFC8138.
