I would to bring this WG Last Call to the attention of this mail list.  I encourage folks that are familiar with IEEE 802.11 OCB mode to review the document and provide comments.

Thanks,
Russ

> Abstract:
>    In order to transmit IPv6 packets on IEEE 802.11 networks running
>    outside the context of a basic service set (OCB, earlier "802.11p")
>    there is a need to define a few parameters such as the supported
>    Maximum Transmission Unit size on the 802.11-OCB link, the header
>    format preceding the IPv6 header, the Type value within it, and
>    others.  This document describes these parameters for IPv6 and IEEE
>    802.11-OCB networks; it portrays the layering of IPv6 on 802.11-OCB
>    similarly to other known 802.11 and Ethernet layers - by using an
>    Ethernet Adaptation Layer.
> 
>    In addition, the document lists what is different in 802.11-OCB
>    (802.11p) links compared to more 'traditional' 802.11a/b/g/n links,
>    where IPv6 protocols operate without issues.  Most notably, the
>    operation outside the context of a BSS (OCB) impacts IPv6 handover
>    behaviour and IPv6 security.
