Very pretty results. (I ask because I too am in RFC hell) > http://www.pps.univ-paris-diderot.fr/~jch/software/babel/draft-chrobocz= ek-babel-extension-mechanism.txt Two quick notes: "Silently ignored" implies that the presence of this tlv in the packet is ignored, when in fact it is silently parsed as to length and skipped... "Silently skipped", perhaps? Also http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6126 is an *expired* draft. It probably would be best (not my call, bounce it off the right ADs) to update that and merge in with this mechanism, bringing it back into currency, rather than do it separately. That said there are multiple edits to rfc6126 I'd like to see, and defining the extension mechanism is a clean addition rather than an edit, soo... gah... > The registry of known TLV and sub-TLV types is on > > http://www.pps.univ-paris-diderot.fr/~jch/software/babel/babel-tlv-regi= stry.text Heh. I'd have skipped the number "13" for superstitious reasons, but I look forward to seeing that tlv tried. one piece of data I've longed to have is gps-related data (lat/long/height/motion). Similarly, connectivity stats (endpoint, speed, current bandwidth usage) harvested from minstrel and elsewhere. Another is carrying the mtu of a given gateway, for example mtu 1480 for a 6in4 connection to the outside world saves on pmtu one way. > I hope to do something with this (hopefully an experimental RFC), so > please take the time to review it. > Thanks, > > -- Juliusz > > _______________________________________________ > Babel-users mailing list > Babel-users@lists.alioth.debian.org > http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/babel-users --=20 Dave T=E4ht Fixing bufferbloat with cerowrt: http://www.teklibre.com/cerowrt/subscribe.= html
