Routing: Route Discovery
■ A device wishing to discover a route issues a route request command frame which is broadcast throughout the network.
■ When the intended destination receives the route request command frame it responds with a route reply command frame.
■ Potential routes are evaluated with respect to a routing cost metric.
■ Best route is added to the routing tables of all devices on the route

Message Routing: The Basic Algorithm
1. See if the destination is in the Neighbour Table
2. Check for a Routing Table entry
3. Finally resort to Tree Routing
NB. ZRs store messages for sleeping ZED’s

Broadcast: The Basic Algorithm
■ Transmit broadcast message
■ Rebroadcast by local ZRs if it is new.
■ Time & radius limited.
■ ZRs store messages for sleeping ZED’s
■ ZRs issue broadcasts on behalf of sleeping ZEDs
