Document: Transmission of IPv6 Packets over IEEE 802.15.4 Networks Reviewer: Joel M. Halpern Review Date: 5-March-2007 IETF LC Date: 01 March 2007 IESG Telechat date: 08 March 2007 Summary: This document is ready for publication as a Proposed Standard. It is very well written and clear. I did have twhree minor comments that should be considered if there is reason to revise this document. Minor: I don't know that I have ever seen a document before that says "thou shalt not extend this." (Section 5, last sentence before 5.1, "All headers used in LOWPAN adaptation layer SHALL be defined in this format document.") The fragmentation technique sends an offset that is in multiple of 8 bytes. It would be sensible to say that all fragments except the last SHOULD (MUST?) be multiple of eight bytes, so that the fragment offset works well. (section 5.3) At the beginning of section 10.1 on Encoding IPv6 Header fields, the wording is slightly misleading. The wording says "The following common IPv6 header values may be compressed from the onset..." I would suggest instead "The following IPv6 header values are expected to be common on 6lowPan networks, so the HC1 header has been constructed to efficiently compress them from the onset."
