Right, in a situation like this, where the network is pretty stable, it would make sense to use longer lifetimes. Also bear in mind that the communication on this network might be between two hosts on the same link—one a data collector and one a reporting device. So the router lifetime might not be an issue. If the communication is going off-network, a longer router lifetime would be required. At the same time such a device likely is not relying on RA, since it What I’m suggesting is simply that you mention that the defaults you are recommending are really most applicable in home networks, and may not be applicable in various commercial networks, including the IoT deployment I used as an example. IOW, make it clear that these defaults are not universally applicable. There’s no text right now that says that (unless I missed it). |
