6.7.7 Neighbor Discovery
(exclusive to the full-featured HiPR-900 version)
Each unit is equipped with a neighbor discovery module whose purpose is to detect all other units in the
RF network and to add all necessary IP routes needed to reach all neighboring units.
Figure 80 - Neighbor Discovery Module
The neighbor discovery module only operates when the unit is configured in router mode.
Item Description
Neighbor Discovery Enabled (default)/Disabled
Autolock
Enabled/Disabled (default)
When enabled, all dynamic Neighbor Table entries (neighboring units
discovered by the neighbor discovery module) are saved automatically
after the discovery module’s learning process is considered complete
(see Convergence Timeout below). These entries are preserved in the
unit’s flash memory, so that on restart the unit does not have to relearn
the complete topology of the RF network.
Convergence Timeout
Time in ms after which, without learning any new information, the
neighbor discovery algorithm considers the learning process complete.
Default 15 000ms.
The neighbor discovery module populates the neighbor table with dynamic neighbor entries. The process
of detecting the other units takes some time and RF bandwidth.
