METHOD FOR MERGING TWO SUB-NETWORKS INTO A SINGLE AD HOC NETWORK IMPLEMENTING THE D2HCP PROTOCOL

摘要

A method for merging two sub-networks of an ad hoc network implementing the D2HCP routing protocol includes transmitting a first data set from the master node to the slave node, the first set including the identifiers of all the nodes of the sub-network containing the master node, the IP addresses of all the nodes of the sub-network containing the master node, each node identifier being associated with a single IP address, comparing each received IP address of the first set with the IP addresses of the routing table of the slave node in order to identify a list of duplicates corresponding to nodes of each sub-network having the same IP addresses.
