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-1.3-1">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.

<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>
