Re: [riot-devel] Gnrc Router Solicitation Messages (Thomas C. Schmidt)

2017-10-30 Thread Thomas C. Schmidt 

Hiho,

to be more explicit: a Router Solicitation Messages should be sent out 
immediately after a link comes up. This usually happens by link triggers 
from the interface.


Best,
 Thomas

Actually, you shouldn't need to trigger a RS explicitly. This should happen
automatically within RIOT, i.e., send an RS whenever a link gets ready, which
also applies to wake up from sleep. Hence, (IMHO) this needs to be fixed in
the network stack.

@miri64 might know the right place? Anyhow, if not already done: please open
an issue addressing and describing this issue, so we have it officially and
trackable.

Best,

It's not really that i wan't to change the interval. The thing is my node
goes into deep sleep and to be battery efficient I need Router Solicitation
Messages to go out as soon as it wakes up, which is not happening with gnrc
default set-up. That's why I was asking how I can trigger one in the
cleanest way. Cheers,

Hi,

why would you want to change the router solicitation interval 
(RTR_SOLICITATION_INTERVAL) outside the scope foreseen by the RFC?

Dear Devel's,

I need to change the frequency on which router solicitation messages are 
sen't or manually trigger them. I've found I can do this by 
modifying GNRC_SIXLOWPAN_ND_RTR_SOL_INT at 
sys/include/net/gnrc/sixlowpan/nd.h. But since the default value is 
already the minimum value specified by the RFC I'm wandering what would 
be the cleanest way to force a router solicitation message. Thanks in 
advance, cheers!
