Hello:

A draft on the efficient ipv6 neighbor discovery has been submitted with editorial modification to address some of the comments from last IETF. We expect to have another revision right after IETF to change the name from 'energy-aware' to 'efficient'.

In version 02:

* Fixed the abstract to focus on the optimization
* Applicability section mentions that the optimization is for IPv6 ND messaging and further optimization for energy-saving is possible at the upper layers
* Added a section (section 17) to discuss its relationship with DNA solution and that it does not affect nodes joining musticast groups and does not affect multicast traffic and queries in the network.

The authors of this draft request a review and comments from the wg members. We presented the draft in last IETFs (@Taiwan+QC) and had many positive feedbacks from Data Center networking and ipv6 mobile-handset representatives.

Thanks,

A new version of I-D, draft-chakrabarti-nordmark-energy-aware-nd-02.txt has been successfully submitted by Samita Chakrabarti and posted to the IETF repository.

Filename:	 draft-chakrabarti-nordmark-energy-aware-nd
Revision:	 02
Title:		 Energy Aware IPv6 Neighbor Discovery Optimizations
Creation date:	 2012-03-13
WG ID:		 Individual Submission
Number of pages: 23

Abstract:
   IPv6 Neighbor Discovery (RFC 4861) protocol has been designed for
   neighbor&#39;s address resolution, unreachability detection, address
   autoconfiguration, router advertisement and solicitation.  With the
   progress of Internet adoption on various industries including home,
   wireless and machine-to-machine communications, there is a desire for
   optimizing legacy IPv6 Neighbor Discovery protocol to be more
   efficient in terms of number of signaling messages in the network.
   Efficient IPv6 Neighbor Discovery is useful for energy-efficient
   networks and as well for overlay networks such as VLANs with large
   number of nodes.  This document describes a method of optimizations
   by reducing periodic multicast messages, frequent Neighbor
   Solicitation messages and discusses interoperability with legacy IPv6
   nodes.  It also addresses the ND denial of service issues by
   introducing node Registration procedure.
