RE: [ipwave] [Gen-art] Genart last call review of draft-ietf-ipwave-ipv6-over-80211ocb-46

Hi,
Maybe use similar language as in https://tools.ietf.org/id/draft-ietf-ipwave-vehicular-networking-09.txt 

For the protection of drivers' privacy, the pseudonym of a MAC
   address of a vehicle's network interface should be used, with the
   help of which the MAC address can be changed periodically.


I only found the sentence " The policy dictating when the MAC address is  changed on the 802.11-OCB interface is to-be-determined" as too weak.

Hi,
I understand the text makes one think the way you do.

Privacy is indeed a major issue in vehicular networks.

I dont know how to better formulate this MAC address change such as to be ready for the future, and also be compatible with the present.

1609.4 is not implemented in all places.  Those who implement 1609.4 do not implement IPv6-over-OCB.  1609.4 implementations, such as all 1609 implementations, come with a high cost in software, hardware and necessary skillset.

IPv6-over-OCB comes at significantly lower cost in the three.
