We have updated both draft-hui-6man-rpl-routing-header as well as
draft-hui-6man-rpl-option-header based on feedback from Anaheim as
well as discussions on the ML.
Summary of changes:
- Specify a maximum size for header/option so that it is possible to
avoid MTU issues within a RPL domain
- IP-in-IP tunneling is used when a header/option must be inserted
into an existing packet
- Expanded text on requirements and checks on RH4 processing needed to
avoid amplification attacks
Comments/feedback appreciated as always.

Revision: 01
Title: An IPv6 Routing Header for Source Routes with RPL
Creation_date: 2010-06-09
WG ID: Independent Submission
Number_of_pages: 16
Abstract:
In Low power and Lossy Networks (LLNs), memory constraints on routers
may limit them to maintaining at most a few routes. In some
configurations, it is necessary to use these memory constrained
routers to deliver datagrams to nodes within the LLN. The Routing
for Low Power and Lossy Networks (RPL) protocol can be used in some
deployments to store most, if not all, routes on one (e.g. the
Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG) root) or few routers and forward the
IPv6 datagram using a source routing technique to avoid large routing
tables on memory constrained routers. This document specifies a new
IPv6 Routing header type for delivering datagrams within a RPL
domain.
