A method of configuring a network including a node incorporating decision-making functions, referred to as a PDP node, and at least two nodes incorporating decision-executing functions, referred to as PEP nodes, including at least one PEP node that is directly connected to the PDP node and at least one PEP node that is not directly connected to the PDP node. The method includes the following acts: identifying the PDP node from a message received by the PEP node; allocating to the PEP node at least one IP address that is distinct from a link-local address, the at least one IP address being obtained from a set of addresses known to the PDP node; and obtaining a list of at least one available IP address for allocation to at least one other node directly connected to the PEP node in the network and not possessing an IP address, referred to as a “undiscovered” node, which list, referred to as a list of delegated addresses, is transmitted by the PDP node and is obtained from the set of addresses. |

1. A configuration method comprising:
configuring a network comprising a node incorporating decision-making functions, referred to as a PDP node, and at least two nodes incorporating decision-executing functions, referred to as PEP nodes, including at least one PEP node that is directly connected to the PDP node and at least one PEP node that is not directly connected to the PDP node, wherein configuring comprises the following acts:
at the at least one PEP node directly connected to the PDP node:
identifying said PDP node from a message received by said PEP node and transmitted by said PDP node;allocating to said PEP node at least one IP address that is distinct from a link-local address, as transmitted by said PDP node, said at least one IP address being obtained from a set of addresses known to said PDP node; andobtaining a list of at least one available IP address for allocating to at least one other node directly connected to said PEP node in said network and not possessing an IP address, referred to as a “undiscovered” node, which list, referred to as a list of “delegated addresses” is transmitted by said PDP node and is obtained from said set of addresses;at the at least one PEP node that is not directly connected to the PDP node:
identifying said PDP node from a message received by said PEP node and transmitted by another node of said network possessing an IP address and knowing the IP address of said PDP node, referred to as a “discovered” node, that is directly connected to said PEP node:allocating to said PEP node at least one IP address that is distinct from a link-local address, and that is transmitted by said discovered node, said at least one IP address being obtained from a set of addresses known to said PDP node; andobtaining a list of at least one available IP address for allocation to at least one other node directly connected to said PEP node in said network and not possessing an IP address, referred to as a “undiscovered” node, which list, referred to as a list of “delegated addresses”, is transmitted by said PDP node and is obtained from said set of addresses. |
