Has anyone determined if a standard RFC4861 end device would be able to
work with a 6lowpan ND edge router, would it be able to get the
necessary commissioning data (prefix, default router, ...)
And the reverse, could a 6lowpan ND end device get commissioned via a
standard RFC4861 ND router?
That of course isn't possible with nd-05 (as-is). Making it possible
would require adding some complexity to LoWPAN nodes... is there a good
reason for doing that?
Questions:
- Is there a need for an IPv6 node that only implements RFC4861 to
participate (have a network interface) in a LoWPAN?
- If there is such a need, how should it participate (as a host?, as a
router?, single-hop only?). Such a participant wouldn't work with
route-over LoWPANs nor sleeping nodes of course.
- What is the use-case and scenario for such participation?
