This document creates a registry for command and control rule values across technologies¶
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."¶

"Static Context Header Compression (SCHC) and fragmentation for LPWAN, application to UDP/IPv6" [SCHC] defines a generic compression and fragmentation protocol that is optimized for LPWAN networks.¶
SCHC needs to be instanciated to be applied to a particular networking technology. This is being done at the LPWAN WG for [LoRaWAN], [Sigfox], and [NB-IOT].¶
SCHC does not have to be limited to compression and fragmentation; it can be extended for other purposes, e.g., to transport commands and responses. The necessary commands appear to be very similar across technologies and it makes sense to create a share IANA registry that is valid across technologies. It does not mean that all technologies need to implement all the command and controls defined in the IANA registry that this document creates, either.¶
This specification creates a registry. There is no security consideration about the registry itself.¶
This specification creates a new Subregistry for the LPWAN command and control values for use within the [SCHC] protocol.¶
