The agenda was bashed, speakers were encouraged to stated their name *MANET WG Status IPR notice - see RFC 3979. Reactive, proactive and multicast forwarding drafts have all moved forward since Paris. The MANET AUTOCONF WG has been chartered. The first charter item is a MANET architecture document. The MANET WG probably has the best knowledge about this document. Please signup for the AUTOCONF mailing list to participate. Please email - ian.chakeres at gmail.com - if you are actively reviewing, implementing, or testing MANET protocols. * DYMO Update Several minor changes to the DYMO draft were made between -02 and -03. Please see the slides and DYMO webpage (http://moment.cs.ucsb.edu/dymo) for more information. Several other modifications are under discussion for DYMO-04, the proposed changes will appear on the list soon, or see DYMO Update presentation. A common packet format and message structure are under discussion for OLSRv2 and DYMO. See the OLSRv2 ID for more information, as the common format is being drafted using this as its basis. Additional implementation experience is encouraged. Please feedback to the list or authors. * OLSRv2 Update There were several modifications in the last OLSRv2 revision. Discussions this week should result in a new OLSRv2 revision shortly after IETF 64. See the presentation for more specific past and future changes to OLSRv2. The OLSRv2 team is particularly interested in OLSRv2 extensions and optimizations. Please contact the authors if your extensions, such as QoS or link quality, can not be support in OLSRv2. * SMF Update The SMF document was rewritten and many sections previously noted as TBD were filled. Several components of the smurf draft were incorporated into the SMF draft. There are still some issues in the draft, in particular the gateway section requires more review. NRL presented some results of their SMF implementation with several different relay set algorithms. In these early simulation results, the MPR and ECDS algorithms perform similarly for SMF purposes. * OSPF-MANET There are two active IDs. Both approaches use a reduced relay set and topology reduction to efficiently distribute OSPF messages. Results from a tech report were presented, the URL can be found in the slides. The code is available for download and evaluation. The discussion of OSPF-MANET protocols will move from the design team list to the OSPF list. Please subscribe if you are interested in following the discussion. * Open Microphone Someone questioned WG interest in forming a MANET IRTF group to look at MANET unchartered items (i.e. multicast, QoS, link metrics). More than 50 percent of the audience was in favor of forming such a group. No one was against forming such a group. Someone proposed discussion with the IRTF routing area chair, since that group might accept research in MANET there. |
