  1. 6LoWPAN WG, IETF69, Chicago Commissioning in 6LoWPAN Ki-Hyung Kim (picosNet Corp/Ajou University) and S. Daniel Park (SAMSUNG Electronics)

  2. The Goal of the Commissioning • Defines the procedure taken by 6LoWPAN devices when they first start operation. • Involves starting a new network, becoming part of existing network and obtaining IP settings.

  3. Terminology • Active Scan • Association • Coordinator • ED Scan • Full Function Device (FFD) • Neighbor Table • PAN Id • Passive Scan • Personal Operating Space (POS) • Reduced Function Device (RFD) • Short Address

  4. Bootstrapping • Associating with the network and obtaining IPv6 address. • Specifically, it includes the process of • starting the network, • associating with other nodes, • obtaining the unique IPv6 address, • and constructing security credentials for 6LoWPAN

  5. Bootstrapping Procedure • Consists of the following steps • Scanning through channels • Starting a new network • Joining the network with association • Joining the network without association • Setting the beacon data structure • Assigning the short address • Obtaining IPv6 address

  6. 6LoWPAN Interoperability TestBed • 6LoWPAN Interoperability TestBed Plan in Korea • KOREN (KOrea advanced REsearch Network) • http://www.koren21.net/eng/about/overview.php • Building Sensor Network testbeds in 8 major cities in Korea connected by KOREN • Testing the commissioning and routing protocols of 6lowpan • Action Plans • Deploying the testbeds in August, 2007 • Demonstrating the interoperability in September, 2007 • The testbed will be shown from the mid of September through (www.sensorop.org)

  7. Next Steps • Feedback is welcome • Any comments/suggestions? • Is the WG interested in this draft as a WG item?
