A Routing Protocol for Low-Power and Lossy Networks (RPL) Destination-Oriented Directed Acyclic Graph (DODAG) Configuration Option for the 6LoWPAN Routing Header
RFC 9035
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.
