Hello, I am involved in a project titled 6PANview which is aimed to perform network monitoring for a 6LoWPAN network. One of the objectives of this project is to extend the traceroute functionality by including path information in the icmp time exceeded message takes on its way to the base station. This is motivated by the fact that a typical 6LoWPAN network commonly operates in a nodes-to-base_station data movement, we feel it is very important for the network administrator to know the path from a node to the base station.
In view of the above, I feel it would be extremely useful to include route record option in the 6LoWPAN header. A similar issue has already been discussed in the following mail thread http://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/6lowpan/current/msg01236.html Can you let me know your thoughts on the above ?
