Hello All,


During IESG evaluation of (draft-ietf-roll-efficient-npdao-12) we received a comment from Mirja regarding specifying the DCO retry operation in detail if DCO-ACK is not received. Quoting her verbatim, "Please specify a maximum number of retries and also a minimum retry interval (of e.g. 3 sec best with exponential back-off)!"


Currently the draft says that this is "implementation and deployment dependent".
RFC 6550 also has DAO retries if DAO-ACK is not received but it also does not specify this operation in detail.

Do you think we can put this explicitly  and does anyone have an opinion on the right way of putting this considering different physical layers with very different characteristics operating in dense/sparse (wireless) deployments?

Thanks,
Rahul
