The IESG has received a request from the IPv6 over Networks of Resource-constrained Nodes WG (6lo) to consider the following document: - 'Privacy Considerations for IPv6 Adaptation Layer Mechanisms' <draft-ietf-6lo-privacy-considerations-04.txt> as Informational RFC The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits final comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the ietf@ietf.org mailing lists by 2016-11-30. Exceptionally, comments may be sent to iesg@ietf.org instead. In either case, please retain the beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting. Abstract This document discusses how a number of privacy threats apply to technologies designed for IPv6 over various link layer protocols, and provides advice to protocol designers on how to address such threats in adaptation layer specifications for IPv6 over such links. The file can be obtained via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-6lo-privacy-considerations/ IESG discussion can be tracked via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-6lo-privacy-considerations/ballot/ No IPR declarations have been submitted directly on this I-D.
