The main +difference is a separate namespace for command and event codes, +distinguished by using HCI_CHANNEL_6LOWPAN rather than +HCI_CHANNEL_CONTROL when creating the mgmt socket. + + +Read 6LoWPAN Version Information Command +======================================== + + Command Code: 0x0001 + Controller Index: <non-controller> + Command Parameters: + Return Parameters: Version (1 Octets) + Revision (2 Octets) + + This command returns the 6LoWPAN version and revision. + Besides, being informational the information can be used to + determine whether certain behavior has changed or bugs fixed + when interacting with the kernel. + + This command generates a Command Complete event on success or + a Command Status event on failure. + + +Read 6LoWPAN Supported Commands Command +======================================== + + Command Code: 0x0002 + Controller Index: <non-controller> + Command Parameters: + Return Parameters: Num_Of_Commands (2 Octets) + Num_Of_Events (2 Octets) + Command1 (2 Octets) + Command2 (2 Octets) + ... + Event1 (2 Octets) + Event2 (2 Octets) + ... + + This command returns the list of supported 6LoWPAN commands + and events. + + The commands Read 6LoWPAN Version Information and Read + 6LoWPAN Supported Commands are not included in this list. + Both commands are always supported and mandatory. + + The events Command Status and Command Complete are not included + in this list.
