RPLL

RPL is a routing protocol for low power and lossy networks that uses IPv6. It builds a directed acyclic graph (DAG) with nodes routing traffic towards a root node to conserve energy. The DAG is a destination oriented directed acyclic graph (DODAG) that helps minimize an objective function like number of hops to reach the root. Each DODAG instance is identified by a unique ID and version to allow reconfiguration as network conditions change.

BASIC OF RPL-

• RPL is routing protocol for low power and lossy


network, here lossy network means a high
packet drop rate.
• Low power & lossy network ,RPL is widly use .
• RPL mainly use IPv6 128 bits.
• Directed Acyclic graph: It is a graph that contain
no cycle ,such graph can be seen in spanning tree.
• Root: It is a destination node of DAG, it has no
outgoing edge.
• Up: It is an edge that is directed toward the root.
• Down: it is any edge that is directed away from
the root.
• Destination oriented direct acyclic graph DODAG:
This is a special kind of DAG where each node
want to reach a single destination .
• Objective Function: it help us to decide whether
we are near the root or away from it.
• It is decided by the programmer or designer ,it
is something that we want to minimize distance
of transmission, no of hopes.
• Rank: No of hopes from the root .
• RPL instance: when we have one or more
DODAG ,then each DODAG is an instance.
• DODAG Version: Each new shape of DODAG
means a new version.
• DODAG ID: Each DODAG has IPv6 ID of 128 bits ,
this Id is given to its root only and it stays until
the route does not change.
• RPL goal : it is provided the best route path using
DODAG, the aim is to minimize the objective
function.
• Grounded: when DODAG reaches its goal , it is
known as grounded.
• Floating : when DODAG is not connected or yet to
reaches its goal ,it is known as floating.
