       In the Time-Slotted Channel Hopping (TSCH) mode of IEEE Std 802.15.4, 
opportunities for broadcasts are limited to
specific times and specific channels.  Routers in a 
TSCH network
transmit Enhanced Beacon (EB) frames to announce the presence of the
network.  This document provides a mechanism by which additional information critical
for new nodes (pledges) and long-sleeping nodes may be carried within the
EB in order to conserve use of broadcast opportunities.

<p id="section-1.2-1">As explained in <span><a href="https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc8180#section-4.5.2" class="relref">Section 4.5.2</a> of [<a href="#RFC8180" class="xref">RFC8180</a>]</span>, the EB
has a number of purposes: it carries synchronization information such as the 
   Absolute Slot Number (ASN) and Join Metric and identifiers for 
   the timeslot template and the channel hopping sequence, and it 
   indicates the TSCH slotframe.<a href="#section-1.2-1" class="pilcrow">¶</a></p>
<p id="section-1.2-2">An EB announces the existence of a TSCH network and the nodes
already joined to that network.  Receiving an EB allows a Joining Node
(pledge) to learn about the network and to synchronize with it.<a href="#section-1.2-2" class="pilcrow">¶</a></p>
<p id="section-1.2-3">The EB may also be used as a means for a node already part of the network to

<p id="section-1.2-4">There are a limited number of timeslots designated as broadcast slots by each
router in the network.
Considering 10 ms slots and a slotframe length of 100, these slots are rare
and could result in only 1 slot per second for broadcasts, which needs to be
used for the beacon.
Additional broadcasts for Router Advertisements (RA) or Neighbor Discovery
(ND) could be even more scarce.<a href="#section-1.2-4" class="pilcrow">¶</a></p>

<p id="section-1.3-1">At Layer 3, <span>[<a href="#RFC4861" class="xref">RFC4861</a>]</span> defines a mechanism by which nodes learn about
routers by receiving multicast RAs.
If no RA is received within a set time, then a Router Solicitation (RS) may be
transmitted as a multicast, to which an RA will be received, usually unicast.<a href="#section-1.3-1" class="pilcrow">¶</a></p>
<p id="section-1.3-2">Although <span>[<a href="#RFC6775" class="xref">RFC6775</a>]</span> reduces the amount of multicast necessary for address
resolution via Neighbor Solicitation (NS) messages, it still requires multicast
of either RAs or RSes.
This is an expensive operation for two reasons: there
are few multicast timeslots for unsolicited RAs; and if a pledge node does not
receive an RA, and decides to transmit an RS,
a broadcast Aloha slot (see <span><a href="https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc7554#appendix-A.5" class="relref">Appendix A.5</a> of [<a href="#RFC7554" class="xref">RFC7554</a>]</span>) is consumed with
unencrypted traffic.
<span>[<a href="#RFC6775" class="xref">RFC6775</a>]</span> already allows for a unicast reply to such an RS.<a href="#section-1.3-2" class="pilcrow">¶</a></p>

          <li id="section-1.3-4.1">Use of a multicast slot by even a non-malicious unauthenticated node for

appropriate network and/or closest Join Proxy to attach to.

<p id="section-1.4-1">In a complex Low-power and Lossy Network (LLN), multiple LLNs may 
be connected together by Backbone Routers (technology such as 
<span>[<a href="#RFC8929" class="xref">RFC8929</a>]</span>), resulting in an area that is 
serviced by multiple, distinct Layer 2 instances.
These are called Personal Area Networks (PANs).
Each instance will have a separate Layer 2 security profile and will be distinguished by a different PANID.

The PANID is part of the Layer 2 header as defined in <span>[<a href="#IEEE.802.15.4" class="xref">IEEE.802.15.4</a>]</span>:
it is a 16-bit value that is chosen to be unique, and 
it contributes context to the Layer 2 security mechanisms.
The PANID provides a context similar to the Extended Service Set ID (ESSID) 
in 802.11 networking and can be considered similar to 
the 802.3 Ethernet VLAN tag in that it provides context for all Layer 2 addresses.<a href="#section-1.4-1" class="pilcrow">¶</a></p>
<p id="section-1.4-2">A device that is already enrolled in a network may find after 
a long sleep that it needs to resynchronize with the Layer 2 network.
The device's enrollment keys will be specific to a PANID, but the device may have more than one set of keys.
Such a device may wish to connect to a PAN that is experiencing less congestion or that has a shallower
Routing Protocol for LLNs (RPL) tree <span>[<a href="#RFC6550" class="xref">RFC6550</a>]</span>.
It may even observe PANs for which it does not have keys, but for which 
it believes it may have credentials that would allow it to join.<a href="#section-1.4-2" class="pilcrow">¶</a></p>
<p id="section-1.4-3">In order to identify which PANs are part of the same backbone network, the network ID is introduced in this extension.
PANs that are part of the same backbone will be configured to use the same network ID.
For RPL networks <span>[<a href="#RFC6550" class="xref">RFC6550</a>]</span>, configuration of the network ID can be done with a configuration option, which is the subject of future work.<a href="#section-1.4-3" class="pilcrow">¶</a></p>
<p id="section-1.4-4">In order to provide some input to the choice of which PAN to use, the PAN priority field has been added.
This lists the relative priority for the PAN among different PANs.
Every EB from a given PAN will likely have the same PAN priority.
Determination of the PAN priority is the subject of future work; 
but it is expected that it will be calculated by an algorithm in the 
6LoWPAN Border Router (6LBR), possibly involving communication between 6LBRs over the backbone network.<a href="#section-1.4-4" class="pilcrow">¶</a></p>
<p id="section-1.4-5">The parent selection process <span>[<a href="#RFC6550" class="xref">RFC6550</a>]</span> 
can only operate within a single PAN because it depends upon receiving RPL DIO messages from all available parents.
As part of the PAN selection process, the device may wish to know how deep 
in the LLN mesh it will be if it joins a particular PAN, and the rank 
priority field provides an estimation of each announcer's rank.
Once the device synchronizes with a particular PAN's TSCH schedule,  
it may receive DIOs that are richer in their diversity than this value.
The use of this value in practice is the subject of future research, and the interpretation of this
value of the structure is considered experimental.<a href="#section-1.4-5" class="pilcrow">¶</a></p>

This value is calculated by each 6LR according to algorithms specific to the
routing metrics used by the RPL <span>[<a href="#RFC6550" class="xref">RFC6550</a>]</span>.
The exact process is a subject of significant research work.
It will typically be calculated from the RPL rank, and it may include some modifications
based upon current number of children or the number of neighbor cache entries
available.
