You could also thought about to use MLE [0] for provide ETX information. MLE solves the issue with frame counter sync in mac device table, if RIOT would have 802.15.4 security one day... If you using MLE you don't need Metric Containers... simple provide some IPC to dump current neighbor information. Also MLE MAY do periodic transmission of Messages, with that you will get better LQI average over a time... I currently work on a POSIX compatible mle library, I can show you some of my work if you like... but there need much things to do that you can access lower OSI layers below UDP... - Alex [0] https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-6lo-mesh-link-establishment-00 _______________________________________________ devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.riot-os.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
