6LoWPAN
6LoWPAN is a standard from the IETF (RFC 4944 published in 2007), which optimizes IPv6 for use with low-power, low-bandwidth communication technologies such as the IEEE 802.15.4 radio. The IETF 6LoWPAN working group was specifically chartered to tackle the problem of defining how to carry IP-based communication over 802.15.4 links in a manner that conforms to open standards and provides interoperability with other IP links and devices, as well as among 802.15.4 (LoWPAN) devices.

The following information is provided for support purposes only. Daintree's SNA provides a powerful development, analysis and troubleshooting tool for 6LoWPAN. Its Packet List and Packet Timeline windows show a summary of all packets received. You can select a packet in either window to display its details in the Packet Decode window, through which you can "drill down" and see details for every field and every byte within that packet. Customization options allow you to color-code different packet and field types to make them easy to identify. And powerful filters allow you to quickly locate packets of interest from among thousands of packets.

6LoWPAN,
which is an acronym of IPv6 over Low power Wireless Personal Area
Networks, is a recent innovation in IP technology that is making the
Internet of Things become a reality.
