I'm working on a 6lowpan implementation for Linux. I have it partially running but I haven't implemented fragmentation yet so it isn't very useful. The end goal is to get RPL implemented too. I haven't dug into the RPL spec yet so my question may be handled by it. Say the Linux node is in PAN 1. PAN 1 is meshed into PAN 2, 3, 4. How do I ping a node in PAN 4? Or is the answer to just put all of the nodes into a single PAN? -- Jon Smirl [email protected] _______________________________________________ 6lowpan mailing list [email protected] https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/6lowpan
