Now, the first example on 6LoWPAN compression is on an IPv6 link local multicast address.
These additional bits that are added for the IPv6 compressed together thus the receiver of the compressed packet by reading this field of the compressed heather can decompress the original IPv6 header. Now, the main goal of 6LoWPAN cooperation mechanism is to take the original activist heather and add to it a few bits which indicate how the original IPv6 header is compressed. The objective of the 6 LoWPAN adaptation layer based on its header compression and fragmentation mechanisms is to enable IPv6 packet transmissions over IPv 800 to 50 not four networks. As an example here is the typical 6TiSCH protocol stock where the £6 adaptation layer is located below the IPv6 one. Please not that I assume that you have already knowledge of the LoWPAN compression mechanism defined in RFC 62-82. In this video, I'm going to give two examples of the 6LoWPAN compression operation. Hi, I am Georgios Papadopoulos and welcome to this video on 6LoWPAN examples of the IPv6 header compression.
