Hi,

What is available is the patch in Savannah.

I have been testing it in a product for over a year and it works quite well.

It is not 100% complete, and lacks documentation. But if you're a bit of a hacker you'll figure it out.

The 6LowPAN code is implemented like a netif, but you'll have to implement your own driver for your PHY/MAC. I used an AT86RF231, so you need to write the driver to write the packets via SPI. That depends on your CPU and your external PHY.

I haven't had time to document it and merge, but if you want to improve the code we could look into merging with master.

Cheers
Ivan

Hello,

We are planning to use LWIP and 6lowpan as an IP stack on one of our IoT device. We came across this group while searching for lwip+6lowpan integrated stack.

The following patch shows initial support for 6lowpan on lwip.
http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/lwip.git/log/?h=lowpan6
But we don't see any further commits to this. Has the work on this
branch stopped?

There is git for lwip
http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/lwip.git
Into which there is separate branch for 6lowpan. We don't see any
6lowpan code into this branch.
Also in https://savannah.nongnu.org/patch/?8706 this link, found
files with 6lowpan initial development.
We are a bit confused as to which branch to use for lwip and 6lowpan together.

Our ultimate aim is to enable IP stack on a demo sensor board
(lwip+6lowpan with Bluetooth or Zigbee device which are 802.15.4 complaint).

We would appreciate if we could get some pointers to our above requirement. If the activity on this branch has been stopped and migrated somewhere else, can anyone please redirect us to some other link where the development is still on.

Thanks.
