A new Request for Comments is now available in online RFC libraries. RFC 6282 Title: Compression Format for IPv6 Datagrams over IEEE 802.15.4-Based Networks Author: J. Hui, Ed., P. Thubert Status: Standards Track Stream: IETF Date: September 2011 Mailbox: jhui@archrock.com, pthubert@cisco.com Pages: 24 Characters: 52588 Updates: RFC4944 I-D Tag: draft-ietf-6lowpan-hc-15.txt URL: http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc6282.txt This document updates RFC 4944, "Transmission of IPv6 Packets over IEEE 802.15.4 Networks". This document specifies an IPv6 header compression format for IPv6 packet delivery in Low Power Wireless Personal Area Networks (6LoWPANs). The compression format relies on shared context to allow compression of arbitrary prefixes. How the information is maintained in that shared context is out of scope. This document specifies compression of multicast addresses and a framework for compressing next headers. UDP header compression is specified within this framework. [STANDARDS-TRACK] This document is a product of the IPv6 over Low power WPAN Working Group of the IETF. This is now a Proposed Standard Protocol. STANDARDS TRACK: This document specifies an Internet standards track protocol for the Internet community,and requests discussion and suggestions for improvements. Please refer to the current edition of the Internet Official Protocol Standards (STD 1) for the standardization state and status of this protocol. Distribution of this memo is unlimited.
