Hello,

I have some doubts about the 6lowpan ND protocol, concerning its reliablity.

I believe understand the motivations behind avoiding broadcast NS messages
upon incoming session. However, what happens if the whiteboard approach fails
i.e. if whiteboard bindings are lost due to edge router crash, reboot
or changing
the edge router for whatever administrative reason?

Is there any countermeasure for this scenario? Note that standard ND is costly
but perfectly handles such a situation.

A related question: how frequent you believe broadcast NS messages
(i.e. incoming
sessions) will be in a 6lowpan network? Or, sessions will be mostly initiated by
6lowpan nodes?

Regards,

pars
