Technical Summary
In TSCH mode of IEEE802.15.4, as described by [RFC8180],
opportunities for broadcasts are limited to specific times and
specific channels. Nodes in a TSCH network typically frequently send
Enhanced Beacon (EB) frames to announce the presence of the network.
This document provides a mechanism by which small details critical
for new nodes (pledges) and long sleeping nodes may be carried within
the Enhanced Beacon.
Working Group Summary
This is a simple and well-understood specification. Went through the WG without hassle, raised very few comments actually.
Document Quality
Most of the reviewers were 802.15.4 TSCH experts and the quality is really good.
We have not seen implementation plans, but that should come since this is both simple and needful.
Personnel
The Document Shepherd is Pascal Thubert. The Responsible AD is Suresh Krishnan.
