Given that the WG is working to define two standards - Reactive MANET Protocol (RMP) - Proactive MANET Protocol (PMP) that may or may not converge, do we need to allocate two port numbers so these protocols can co-exist? There has also been a suggestion to allocate an IP protocol number for a MANET routing protocol. Should this be included in this draft? The various MANET protocols are moving to packetbb which will require the definition of several/many TLV identifiers. Where are these type IDs going to be allocated and tracked? If in the separate protocol drafts, is there a potential problem with overlap if IDs? If so, perhaps the MANET type IDs should be defined here. draft-ietf-manet-packetbb-08 currently reserves IDs "Message type 0 MUST NOT be allocated because a zero-octet signifies a packet header and zero-octets are used for padding. Message types 1 to 4 are reserved because they are used by OLSR [4], which uses a compatible packet/message header format."
