Hi Jon, PAN-ID was removed from the latest header compression when forming the IPv6 address.
So how you use PAN-ID is totally up to you. That's essentially part of the bootstrapping question. For example you could scan using 802.15.4 beacon requests/beacons to decide which PAN-ID to join.

I'm also unclear on how PAN IDs are dealt with. Does each PAN need a unique IPv6 prefix? Then I need to track the mapping between prefix and PAN ID? -- Jon Smirl [email protected] _______________________________________________ 6lowpan mailing list [email protected] https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/6lowpan
