Popis: Since the IPv6 over Low-Power Wireless Area Networks (6LoWPAN) standard does not define routing protocols, several approaches have been made to reuse and adapt existing MANET protocols. Extensive current research and development is conducted at the ROLL working group. This group defines routing requirements and provides solutions not only for 6LoWPAN but also for Low-Power and Lossy networks (LLNs) in general. The currently proposed routing protocol, RPL, is a generic distance-vector protocol which builds a distance oriented directed acyclic graph (DODAG) as topology. This paper provides a short overview over these routing protocols and algorithms, particularly for the use with IEEE 802.15.4 networks.
