Daniel,


I think there is one requirement missing, which should state that
"reduced-function devices" are not to be involved in any mobility related
signaling.

Why ? Should RFD be a stationary mode only in 6lowpan area ? Can you
elaborate on your concern again ?

What I meant is that reduced-function devices should be able to move without having to involve actively in any mobility protocol. Even though the separation between RFDs and FFDs is pointed out in the draft, I could not see whether different mobility-related requirements apply to them or not.

For example the draft makes these two statements:
- "The lowpan nodes must be able to detect its movement from one wireless LowPan to another correctly." - "When a lowpan node moves from one personal area network(6lowpan) to another, it should immediately inform the new PAN co-ordinator about its presence."

In my opinion, RFD nodes should not have to detect their own movement. Their movement should *be detected* by more capable devices... what do you think?

I agree with this approach, it is important to reduce the network activity of the RFD nodes. One possible solution of such *detect* mechanism can be incorporated as one "LowPan Neighbor Discovery Extension", in the Chakrabarti ID.
