Draft
This document creates a registry for command and control rule
values across technologies
Terminology
BCP 14
The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT",
"SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "NOT RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and
"OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as described in BCP 14
when, and only when, they
appear in all capitals, as shown here.
Purpose of this document
"Static Context Header Compression (SCHC) and fragmentation for LPWAN, application to UDP/IPv6"
defines a generic compression and fragmentation protocol that is optimized for LPWAN networks.
SCHC needs to be instanciated to be applied to a particular networking technology.
This is being done at the LPWAN WG for
,
, and
.
SCHC does not have to be limited to compression and fragmentation; it can be extended for other purposes, e.g., to transport commands and responses.
The necessary commands appear to be very similar across technologies and it makes sense to create a share IANA registry that is valid across technologies.
It does not mean that all technologies need to implement all the command and controls defined in the IANA registry that this document creates, either.
Security Considerations
This specification creates a registry. There is no security consideration about the registry itself.
IANA Considerations
This specification creates a new Subregistry for the LPWAN command and control values
for use within the SCHC protocol.
- Possible values are 8-bit unsigned integers (0..255).
- Registration procedure is "Standards Action" .
- Initial allocation is as indicated in :
Acceptance values of the RPL Status
