Resources

Minutes

  • [07.05] Meeting starts
    • Recording starts
    • [Thomas] states IETF Note Well
  • [07.06] Administrivia
    • Agenda bashing

      agenda approved. No issues raised

    • Approval minutes from last meeting

      minutes are approved. No issues raised

  • [07.07] Rechartering
    • charter text
      • the text for the new charter is stable
      • the text has been communicated to Brian Haberman (AD), waiting for reply
    • work items and milestones
      • Produce 6tisch architecture
      • 6top sublayer mechanisms
      • 6top SF
      • Secure 6tisch network bootstrap
      • produce requirements to detnet
      • [Zhuo] points that has been a lot of discussion w.r.t handling IP traffic (Sched. Function).
      • [Pascal] we want to focus on something we can produce. Non-IP traffic is PCE and we are not addressing that right now.
      • [Zhuo] a track should consist of several cells in different node schedules. This is part of the architecture
      • [Pascal] We do not support MPLS in this instance of the charter.
      • [Pat] could it be a compromise here. Like adding a "coma" saying ",not precluding any traffic."
      • [Pascal] clarifies that in the current charter there is a sentence that indicates that the current work is not advanced enough to focus on that topic but nothing prevents it.
      • [Pat] non-ip traffic, requiring some time slots. Should we work with the PCE then if we want non ip slots?
      • [Thomas]the allocation of a track is orthogonal to the mechanism. Zhuo can you clarify what you mean non-IP traffic?
      • [Zhuo] what happens if we create a hard cell track using the PCE and then we have 6top allocating soft cells on it. Would that be IP traffic? (CHECK THAT THIS IS WHAT HE SAID)
      • [Pat] How to coexist with other ... -- can we add a sentence to indicate that coexistence.
      • [Pascal]: architecture covers that with Chunks.

        Action item: Pascal to check coexistence in the charter to be taken into account.

  • [07.22] new activity in the join process

    • slides presented by Michael

      • we have 6top that will be present in any 6tisch network. It communicates 2 neighbors. * Can we leaverage it for security?

    • challenge: auth the network. Does the node join to the right network?

    • Future work: anima WG chartered. Lot of input to the 6tisch join sec. process.
    • Zigbee IP EAP-TLS + PANA
    • lots of fragmentation.
    • Thread Group is similar to the proposals of 6tisch released during 2015.
    • Suggestion: determine if the Thread group wont work. Propose changes if necessary.
    • [Thomas] Is there any relation between thread and anima?
    • [Michael] does not know.

    • [07.36] draft-wang-6tisch-6top-sublayer

    • Xavi: published v03 defines the cell negotiation protcol

    • uses 6P to install remove cells

    • does not say how the scheduling function decides

    • Uses/ expects IETF IE

    • [Pat]: The IETF IE should not be named 6top since there is one for whole IETF

    • [Thomas]: we need to describe in a small doc how split the IE for new features
    • [Xavi]: there is a section that discusses the liaison with IEEE to get this moving
    • [Thomas]: we are waiting for reviews by Yokohama, encourage support (or not) on the ML
    • [07.43] draft-dujovne-6tisch-6top-sf0
    • [Thomas]: sf0 is conplementary draft

    • [Diego] this is sequel to OTF draft defines a scheduling function

    • Procedure has 3 steps (see slides)

    • goal define the scheduling functions

    • named SF0 (Scheduling Function 0)
    • 3 steps:
      • monitor the traffic
      • estimate the bw required
      • determine the # cells to be allocated
    • Rules
    • [Pascal] need to restrict the set of cells we pick cells from in case we are using cells
    • [Thomas] +1
    • [Diego] +1. Something we forgot
    • [Thomas] creates https://bitbucket.org/6tisch/draft-dujovne-6tisch-6top-sf0/issues/36/add-that-we-pick-cells-from-the-set-of
    • container in 6top is used to allocate cells in a slotframe, chunk, etc,, can be any
    • the sf0 should use that container to define the meaning of the allocation (e.g when allocating a cell in a chunk).
    • [07.56] draft-thubert-6tisch-tracks
    • Slides presented by Pascal
    • what tracks are in 6tisch

  • [07.59] Preparing for IETF94 Yokohama

    • draft agenda
    • recommended formats and slides

  • [08.01] AOB No Other B. Is there going to be an interop in Yokohama? No. The interop will in Paris 2nd-4th Feb. No interin call in two weeks from now.

  • [08.??] Meeting ends
