A new Request for Comments is now available in online RFC libraries. RFC 5826 Title: Home Automation Routing Requirements in Low-Power and Lossy Networks Author: A. Brandt, J. Buron, G. Porcu Status: Informational Stream: IETF Date: April 2010 Mailbox: abr@sdesigns.dk, jbu@sdesigns.dk, gporcu@gmail.com Pages: 17 Characters: 38751 Updates/Obsoletes/SeeAlso: None I-D Tag: draft-ietf-roll-home-routing-reqs-11.txt URL: http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc5826.txt This document presents requirements specific to home control and automation applications for Routing Over Low power and Lossy (ROLL) networks. In the near future, many homes will contain high numbers of wireless devices for a wide set of purposes. Examples include actuators (relay, light dimmer, heating valve), sensors (wall switch, water leak, blood pressure), and advanced controllers (radio-frequency-based AV remote control, central server for light and heat control). Because such devices only cover a limited radio range, routing is often required. The aim of this document is to specify the routing requirements for networks comprising such constrained devices in a home-control and automation environment. This document is not an Internet Standards Track specification; it is published for informational purposes. This document is a product of the Routing Over Low power and Lossy networks Working Group of the IETF. INFORMATIONAL: This memo provides information for the Internet community.
