Internet-Draft draft-silva-hymrpl-00.txt is now available. Title: HyMRPL: Per-Node Hybrid Mode of Operation and Inter-DODAG Bridge Mechanism for RPL Author: Cassius Clay Batista da Silva Filho Name: draft-silva-hymrpl-00.txt Pages: 22 Dates: 2026-07-21 Abstract: The Routing Protocol for Low-Power and Lossy Networks (RPL), defined in RFC 6550, enforces a single Mode of Operation (MOP) across all nodes within a DODAG. This rigidity prevents heterogeneous devices from independently selecting their forwarding behavior and creates permanent isolation between DODAGs operating with different MOPs. This document defines HyMRPL, a Hybrid Mode of Operation (MOP=6) that enables per-node functional profiles within a single DODAG. Nodes independently adopt Class-S (storing-like) or Class-N (non-storing- like) behavior without modifying RPL control message formats. Additionally, this document specifies an Inter-DODAG Bridge mechanism that uses MOP Extension (MOPex) signaling to interconnect DODAGs with different MOPs through cross-DODAG route injection. The mechanisms introduce zero additional control messages, maintain full backward compatibility via the J-flag in extended options, and have been validated with a functional implementation demonstrating 100% packet delivery ratio across MOP boundaries.
