Hello,
I am currently trying out BLIP from tinyos-2.x CVS head. When working with it,
a few questions came up:
IPAddressP allows for setting the 16 bit short address (which also changes
TOS_NODE_ID). From that the Link Local Address is derived by:
EUI-48 = PAN_ID(16*'0') + 16*'0' + 16 bit TOS_NODE_ID
6LOWPAN_IP_ADDR = FE80::/64 + 16*'0' + EUI-48
According to RFC 4944 Section 6 and 7 shouldn't this be:
EUI-48 = PAN_ID(16*'0') + 16*'0' + 16 bit TOS_NODE_ID
6LOWPAN_IP_ADDR = FE80::/64 + EUI48_TO_EUI64_RFC2464(EUI-48)
where EUI48_TO_EUI64_RFC2464(EUI-48) inserts FF:FE in the middle?
Could additionally the setting of the long address, which is also described in
RFC4944, be added to the IPAddress interface?
E.g. like this:
command void IPAddress.setLongAddr(ieee_eui64_t newAddr) {};
I am trying to put the SerialID of the DS2411 chip to some use, instead of
using TOS_NODE_ID for the IPv6 address.
BR,
Markus
