Title : Neighbor Discovery for 6LoWPAN
Author(s) : Z. Shelby, et al.
Filename : draft-ietf-6lowpan-nd-01.txt
Pages : 46

This document specifies Neighbor Discovery optimized for 6LoWPAN.
The 6LoWPAN format allows IPv6 to be used over very constrained
wireless networks often making use of extended multihop topologies.
However, the use of standard IPv6 Neighbor Discovery over 6LoWPAN
networks has several problems. Standard Neighbor Discovery was not
designed for wireless links, and the standard IPv6 link concept and
heavy use of multicast makes it inefficient. This document spefies a
new mechanism allowing efficient Duplicate Address Detection over
entire 6LoWPAN networks. In addition it specifies context
dissemination for use with router advertisements, claim and defend
addressing, and the support of extended LoWPANs over backbone links.
