<p>A method to forward a packet according to predefined protocol steps in a sensor personal area network comprising data communication sensor devices and the respective sensor devices are described. The method comprises the steps of assigning a predefined compression value to a compression field in the packet for indicating that a source network identifier of the originator of the packet is assumed to be equal to a destination network identifier of an intended recipient of the packet. Furthermore, the method comprises assigning a predefined label switching value lsv to an addressing mode field DAM-F in the packet P for indicating that the above mentioned protocol steps further comprise a label switching principle that must be applied to forward the packet. Finally the method comprises using a source network identifier field SNI-F of the packet for storing and retrieving the label value lab1 for application of the label switching principle based thereon.</p> |
