Hi, i am using tinyos1.x with Tossim i have an urgent problem to fix. i am using TOS_BCAST_ADDR to send a packet to every neighbor node..... however, my packet is also received by other nodes which they aren't neighbors to the sender node.
to be clear this is an example : TOPOLOGY : 1:2 1:3 2:4 2:5 3:5 3:6 4:7 5:7 5:8 6:8 7:9 8:9 when i send for instance a broadcast from node 3 (neighbor to nodes 1, 5 and 6 only) some other nodes (4 ,2 even others) can receive, then "use" this message. so, my question is : doesn't tinyos/Tossim take in consideration the network topology to broadcast one packet to exactely the concerned neighbors ? if it doesn't, it means that we should make a control after every received packet ( IF the receiver isn't a sender neighbor THEN drop the packet).... and this isn't "easy" since we don't know yet our topology ( it's given only when simulating). your fast reply will be kindly appreciated. best regards.
