Various methods of operating a wireless mesh network are disclosed herein. According to various embodiments, an Internet Protocol (IP) router generates IP addresses for wireless sensor nodes that do not have native support for the IP protocol stack. The IP router then receives and translates an incoming IP request and routes the incoming IP request to the appropriate wireless sensor node. In some embodiments, an IP data packet can be encapsulated and routed using an IP router and an IP bridge device. In other embodiments, an Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) session can be managed over a wireless mesh network.
