Title : LoWPAN Backbone Router

ISA100.11a is a Working Group at the ISA SP100 standard committee
that covers Wireless Systems for Industrial Automation and Process
Control. The WG is mandated to design a scalable, industrial grade
LowPAN for devices such as sensors, valves, and actuators. The
upcoming standard uses the 6LoWPAN format for the network header. It
also introduces the concept of a Backbone Router to merge small
LoWPANs via a high speed transit and scale the ISA100.11a network.
This paper proposes an IPv6 version of the Backbone Router concept.

NOTE: The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this
feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail readers
exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
how to manipulate these messages.
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
