This draft explores IPv6, 6LoWPAN, ND, and RPL requirements for energy optimization setups in residential deployments, with case studies from California, Texas, Australia, UK, etc. It emphasizes the use of ULA's, multiple routers, and mDNS for secure and efficient smart energy networks.
E N D
Smart Energy v6 CPE Requirements draft-herbst-v6ops-cpeenhancements-00 Tom Herbst Don Sturek
802.15.4 at every residence • California as an example • 5.5 Million in deployment at PG&E • 5.3 Million in deployment at SCE • 1.4 Million in deployment in San Diego • Texas, Australia, UK, etc
IP on 802.15.4 • IPv6, 6LoWPAN, ND, RPL • RPL is route over – every hop a Link Local • 6LoWPAN ND is not RFC4861 ND
Multiple routers likely ISP Router 802.11 802.3 802.15.4 Utility or Retail router
ULA’s for the HAN • Stable but not Static • Not provider dependent • Locally Routable • Easy to distinguish • Not forwarded to the Internet • More secure
ULA’s in the Mesh 802.15.4 mesh
Multiple ULA problem Generated a ULA prefix 802.11 Generated a ULA prefix 802.15.4 mesh
Need a routing protocol RIPng
Firewall configuration? Incoming Blocked?
mDNS • Use mDNS/DNS-SD for whole home service discovery • Expand scope of mDNSrequests to Site Local • Expand scope of replies to DNS-SD • Draft could have included requirement for whole home multicast
Suggested Next Steps • Incorporate most into CPE document efforts • draft-wbeebee-v6ops-ipv6-cpe-router-bis-04 • mDNS requirements to Cheshire • draft-cheshire-dnsext-multicastdns
