The IESG has approved the following document: - '6lowpan ESC Dispatch Code Points and Guidelines' (draft-ietf-6lo-dispatch-iana-registry-07.txt) as Proposed Standard This document is the product of the IPv6 over Networks of Resource-constrained Nodes Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Suresh Krishnan and Terry Manderson. A URL of this Internet Draft is: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-6lo-dispatch-iana-registry/ Technical Summary 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. Working Group Summary The genesis of this document comes from interactions with other SDOs using the 6lowpan technologies. Support for this document was strong given the wide and varied uses of RFCs 4944 and 6282. A vast majority of the engaged WG participants strongly support this document. There have been no objections raised to its publication. Document Quality The document shepherd performed several in-depth reviews of the draft during its formulation and after its passage of WGLC. Part of the review entailed mapping the requested IANA registry entries to the ITU-T specifications using those entries to ensure complete coverage. Personnel Brian Haberman is the Document Shepherd Suresh Krishnan is the Responsible Area Director
