RFC 7774: Multicast Protocol for Low-Power and Lossy Networks (MPL) Parameter Configuration Option for DHCPv6

In plain English — editorial summary, not part of the RFC

This document defines a way to configure a parameter set for MPL (Multicast Protocol for Low-Power and Lossy Networks) via a DHCPv6 option. MPL has a set of parameters to control its behavior, and the parameter set is often configured as a network-wide parameter because the parameter set should be identical for each MPL Forwarder in an MPL Domain. Using the MPL Parameter Configuration Option defined in this document, a network can easily be configured with a single set of MPL parameters.
