This kind of open-loop exchange (with no response path from the server to the client) may be desired to minimize resource consumption in constrained systems while updating a bulk of resources simultaneously, or updating a resource with a very high frequency. CoAP already provides a non-confirmable (NON) mode of message exchange where the server end-point does not respond with ACK. However, obeying the request/response semantics, the server end-point responds back with a status code indicating "the result of the attempt to understand and satisfy the request". This document introduces a header option for CoAP called 'No- Response'. Using this option the client can explicitly tell the server to suppress all responses against the particular request. This option also provides granular control to enable suppression of a particular class of response or a combination of response-classes. This option may be effective for both unicast and multicast requests. This document also discusses a few exemplary applications which benefit from this option.}, }
