Hi,

Analyzing the traffic generated by TelosB and Iris while running  
UDPEcho and IPBaseStation (tinyos-2.1.1) I can find not periodic  
groups of routing updates sent to the broadcast address ff05::1

Could you explain me when those routing updates are sent?

I red that routing updates are usually piggybacked on data traffic. My  
motes send 1 data packet each 5 min.

A routing update is generated by a mote when his parent changed isn't  
it? Better, a routing update is generated when the additive path cost  
of the top entry is better than the additive path cost of the default  
route (parent), isn't it?

Why those routing update are sent 3 times? I always have routing  
updates in group of 3. Why 3? I'm looking for the code that send those  
packets but I couldn't find it yet (could you point me). What routing  
update packets carry? From Wireshak they appear just as empty IPv6.

I've noticed that the ipv6's hop limit is not always the same. Are the  
routing updates forwarded by node? Are forwarded only along the route  
to the BaseStation?

Many thanks
