IPv6 EFFICIENT NETWORK LAYER FOR IPv6 PROTOCOL

摘要

An electronic device may include a network interface that enables an electronic device to wirelessly couple the electronic device to another electronic device via a wireless mesh network. The electronic device also includes a processor capable of determining at least one data path to another electronic device via a wireless mesh network using a Routing Information Protocol-Next Generation (RIPng) routing mechanism and a network interface . After identifying at least one data path to another electronic device, the processor may determine whether the identified data path (s) is secure using a Datagram Transport Layer Security protocol. If the identified data path (s) is determined to be secure, the processor may send Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) data packets to the other electronic device via the secure data path (s).
