The IESG has received a request from the IPv6 over the TSCH mode of IEEE 802.15.4e WG (6tisch) to consider the following document: - 'Minimal 6TiSCH Configuration' <draft-ietf-6tisch-minimal-17.txt> as Best Current Practice 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 2016-12-20. 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 describes a minimal mode of operation for a 6TiSCH Network. It provides IPv6 connectivity over a Non-Broadcast Multi- Access (NBMA) mesh composed of IEEE802.15.4 Timeslotted Channel Hopping (TSCH) links. This minimal mode uses a collection of protocols including the 6LoWPAN framework to enable interoperable IPv6 connectivity over IEEE802.15.4 TSCH with minimal network configuration and infrastructure. The file can be obtained via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-6tisch-minimal/ IESG discussion can be tracked via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-6tisch-minimal/ballot/ No IPR declarations have been submitted directly on this I-D. The document contains these normative downward references.
