Hello everyone,

I'm using wireshark to capture packets in the tun0 interface (the one
created using the blip ip-driver), basically I have one mote that serves
as a BS running the IPBaseStation application, and the other end sends
data packets every 30 mins, both with the same LPL configuration:

CFLAGS += -DLOW_POWER_LISTENING -DLPL_SLEEP_INTERVAL=1024
CFLAGS +=-DBLIP_L2_RETRIES=2 -DBLIP_L2_DELAY=2048

With the LPL_SLEEP_INTERVAL set to 0 when sending messages from the
Sender to the BS (always on).

I noticed that the volume of traffic generated by the routing layer
almost triples my data traffic, which may be the reason why the Sender
mote batteries runs out so quickly.

Analizing the captured packets I noticed what I think is a beacon (a
IPv6 header of type 0x3b - No next header) that is sended periodically
by the Sender mote (I think after every router advertisement message
received in the Sender mote, but I'm not sure)... Where can I modify the
network parameters so I can minimize the network actualizations and
generated traffic?  I've been looking the IPDispatch and ICMPResponder
files, but I'm not quite sure if I should mess around with those.

I would appreciate any pointers in the right direction, thanks.

Antonio,
