HIPIG Closing Report for May 2011 Robert Moskowitz Palm Springs May 10, 2011 Robert Moskowitz, Verizon

Resolution 1 Work is on Key Management Protocol support for 802.15 May 2011 Resolution 1 Work is on Key Management Protocol support for 802.15 For which it is preferred that the default is HIP DEX Study group SHOULD be named WPAN KMP SG And we are ready for a Study Group Robert Moskowitz, Verizon

May 2011 Resolution 2 The Multipurpose Frame from 802.15.4e provides the needed MAC framework for a KMP and basic MAC changes are not needed for KMP support by using it. KMP will be via a specific IE in a Multipurpose Frame exchange Robert Moskowitz, Verizon

May 2011 Resolution 3 The KMP will assume the MTU is large enough for the KMP payloads. It will be up to the IE encapsulating component to manage 'fragmentation' through a 'frame chaining' process. The MAC has better knowledge of what size MTUs can successfully be transmitted at any given time. Robert Moskowitz, Verizon

May 2011 Resolution 4 The KMP SHOULD be capable of determining and assigning the WPAN short addresses For example the HIT's (Host Identity Tag) lower 16 bits so R1 and on can be over short addresses Collision resolution WILL be included Robert Moskowitz, Verizon

May 2011 Resolution 5 802.15.4 only defines single hop operations even though the concept of multi-hop is defined Any 802.15 KMP recommended practice can only define a single hop KMP, as there is no MAC frame forwarding mechanism. End-to-end KMP for meshes MUST be defined elsewhere (e.g. IETF core or roll wg) Robert Moskowitz, Verizon

May 2011 Resolution 5a Multi-hop KMP can be specified via a liasoning process with the IETF We tell them how to use the KMP IE, they provide us with some parameter values Robert Moskowitz, Verizon

May 2011 Conclusion A document will be prepared for the July Plenary session fleshing out these items to be used to for a KMP Study Group that will produce the KMP PAR Robert Moskowitz, Verizon
