The purpose of the MANET working group is to standardize IP routing
protocol functionality suitable for wireless routing application within both
static and dynamic topologies with increased dynamics due to node motion
or other factors.
Approaches are intended to be relatively lightweight in nature, suitable for
multiple hardware and wireless environments, and address scenarios where
MANETs are deployed at the edges of an IP infrastructure. Hybrid mesh
infrastructures (e.g., a mixture of fixed and mobile routers) should also be
supported by MANET specifications and management features.
The MANET WG is responsible for the maintenance of RFC5444, NHDP,
OLSRv2, and DLEP.
Work Items:
-
The MANET WG will standardize a multicast MANET protocol framework
based on SMF [RFC 6621] for scoped forwarding within MANET networks.
As part of this framework the WG will produce a well defined MANET
multicast forwarding information base (FIB). -
The WG will produce an informational draft outlining challenges and best
practices for deploying and managing MANET networks. -
DLEP extensions for reporting statistics by traffic classification.
