(@authors: this is a repeat of a private message to you, but now for on-list discussion)
Here one inconsistency I found: the Appendix A example uses IP protocol family number 10 for IPv4, while Section 5.3 does not define how the family number is chosen; and Section 9.1 defines IPv4 as value 4 and IPv6 as value 6. So we need to either fix the example, or the Section 5.3 / 9.1 text. Or preferably both! There’s also the option to base the family number upon a long time existing IANA registry of protocol families: https://www.iana.org/assignments/address-family-numbers/address-family-numbers.xhtml In this case we would get 1=IPv4 and 2=IPv6. (Minor benefit of the existing registry is that also many other protocols as shown in the registry could potentially be used. No need to constrain it to only IPv4 and IPv6…) Best regards Esko IoTconsultancy.nl | Email/Teams: [email protected]
