What is RFC 3561 AODV?
Perkins, et. al. Experimental [Page 4] RFC 3561 AODV Routing July 2003 active route A route towards a destination that has a routing table entry that is marked as valid. Only active routes can be used to forward data packets. broadcast Broadcasting means transmitting to the IP Limited Broadcast address, 255.255.255.255.
What is AODV and how does it work?
AODV allows mobile nodes to obtain routes quickly for new destinations, and does not require nodes to maintain routes to destinations that are not in active communication. AODV allows mobile nodes to respond to link breakages and changes in network topology in a timely manner.
What is the broadcast address for AODV?
For broadcast messages, the IP limited broadcast address (255.255.255.255) is used. This means that such messages are not blindly forwarded. However, AODV operation does require certain messages (e.g., RREQ) to be disseminated widely, perhaps throughout the ad hoc network.
What is ad hoc on-Demand Distance Vector (AODV)?
Introduction The Ad hoc On-Demand Distance Vector (AODV) algorithm enables dynamic, self-starting, multihop routing between participating mobile nodes wishing to establish and maintain an ad hoc network. AODV allows mobile nodes to obtain routes quickly for new destinations, and does not require nodes to maintain routes to destinations that
