In what I've seen in wireless 802.11, mac address = IP address, but of the way the code it works, the arp module must get the mac address from a given ip address (just like in real networks).
I suggest you to check how this is done, in a stable simple 802.11scnenario, and recreate what you learn in zigbee Pedro Estrela On 11/01/2008, juan manuel gomez garcia <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Hi ns-users: > > During last year I was realizing my master thesis about zigbee routing > protocol.
