Thanks for your explanation! Is there any overview documentation on the current state of netdev especially in RIOT-OS native? I really like Ludwig Knüpfers diploma thesis for its good overview, too bad it's obsolete.
gnrc_sixloenc looks promising. I didn't find it in the docs, thanks for pointing that out.
