The IESG has received a request from the IPv6 over Networks of Resource-constrained Nodes WG (6lo) to consider the following document: - '6lowpan ESC Dispatch Code Points and Guidelines' <draft-ietf-6lo-dispatch-iana-registry-06.txt> as Proposed Standard 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 2016-12-08. 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 RFC4944 defines the ESC dispatch type to allow for additional dispatch bytes in the 6lowpan header. The value of the ESC byte was updated by RFC6282, however, its usage was not defined either in RFC6282 or in RFC4944. This document updates RFC4944 and RFC6282 by defining the ESC extension byte code points including registration of entries for known use cases at the time of writing of this document. The file can be obtained via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-6lo-dispatch-iana-registry/ IESG discussion can be tracked via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-6lo-dispatch-iana-registry/ballot/ No IPR declarations have been submitted directly on this I-D.
