Transmission of IPv6 Packets over Near Field Communication
draft-ietf-6lo-nfc-16
Abstract
Near Field Communication (NFC) is a set of standards for smartphones
and portable devices to establish radio communication with each other
by touching them together or bringing them into proximity, usually no
more than 10 cm apart. NFC standards cover communications protocols
and data exchange formats, and are based on existing radio-frequency
identification (RFID) standards including ISO/IEC 14443 and FeliCa.
The standards include ISO/IEC 18092 and those defined by the NFC
Forum. The NFC technology has been widely implemented and available
in mobile phones, laptop computers, and many other devices. This
document describes how IPv6 is transmitted over NFC using 6LoWPAN
techniques.
Status of This Memo
This Internet-Draft is submitted in full conformance with the
provisions of BCP 78 and BCP 79.
Internet-Drafts are working documents of the Internet Engineering
Task Force (IETF). Note that other groups may also distribute
working documents as Internet-Drafts. The list of current Internet-
Drafts is at https://datatracker.ietf.org/drafts/current/.
Internet-Drafts are draft documents valid for a maximum of six months
and may be updated, replaced, or obsoleted by other documents at any
time. It is inappropriate to use Internet-Drafts as reference
material or to cite them other than as "work in progress."
This Internet-Draft will expire on January 10, 2021.
