   Point to point (P2P) communication between arbitrary IPv6 routers and
   hosts in a Low power and Lossy Network (LLN) is a key requirement for
   many applications.  RPL, the IPv6 Routing Protocol for LLNs,
   constrains the LLN topology to a Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG) and
   requires the P2P routing to take place along the DAG links.  Such P2P
   routes may be suboptimal and may lead to traffic congestion near the
   DAG root.  This document specifies a P2P route discovery mechanism,
   complementary to the RPL base functionality.  This mechanism allows
   an IPv6 router or host to discover and establish, on demand, one or
   more routes to another IPv6 router or host in the LLN such that the
   discovered routes meet specified constraints.
