Archived criterion

C08-RI: Yes

Archived previous-definition assessment — revision 4.72. Retired in 5.73; excluded from the active matrix and counts. This historical verdict is not a current assessment.

Rationale

RPL transit needs current neighbor, parent and destination topology state, while DTLS associations terminate at final peers. The selected specifications do not require a persistent archive of which final peers communicated.

Assessment method

Documentary bounded-witness and state inventory; no runtime execution

Source context

Primary forwarding, mobility and state specifications; selected-profile witnesses

Outstanding qualification

Use routing without optional packet-history logging or flow export. Current DAO routes can outlive a data exchange but are reachability state, not a mandatory communication-history archive. No forensic-erasure or default-log qualification is claimed.
