Dear Samita, Thanks for you support of the use-case document, and your valuable comments. LC is an "logical entity" for local data aggregation, status management of local nodes, etc. It is not a router, but in mesh-under, such a local control point can be also used for data forwarding for the neighbors. However, it is highly dependant on deployment decision to set seperate nodes for seperate roles. Thus, I think that specifying such a detail role is out of scope of use-case document. LC was defined for explaining deployment scenarios for nodes with a role of management of local information. If the wording is not clear, would you please suggest some changes?
Thanks again. Eunah On Tue, Aug 10, 2010 at 12:24 AM, Samita Chakrabarti <[email protected]> wrote: > > Hi, > > I have done a brief review.
