Intermediate RREP for dynamic MANET On-demand (AODVv2) Routing
draft-perkins-irrep-01
Abstract
The Dynamic MANET On-demand (AODVv2) routing protocol is intended for
use by mobile routers in wireless, multihop networks. AODVv2
determines unicast routes among AODVv2 routers within the network in
an on-demand fashion, offering on-demand convergence in dynamic
topologies. This document specifies an extension to AODVv2 (and
possibly other reactive routing protocols) enabling intermediate
nodes to shorten route discovery times.

Internet-Draft Intermediate RREP October 2012
1. Overview
The Dynamic MANET On-demand (AODVv2) routing protocol enables on-
demand, multihop unicast routing among participating AODVv2 routers.
The basic operations of the AODVv2 protocol are route discovery and
route maintenance. Route discovery is performed by an AODVv2 router
when one of its clients transmits a packet towards a destination for
which the router does not have a route. Route maintenance is
performed to help ensure that the route being used to forward packets
from the source to the destination remains operational.
During route discovery, the originator's AODVv2 router initiates
flooding of a Route Request (RREQ) throughout the network to find a
route to a particular destination, via the AODVv2 router responsible
for this destination. During this hop-by-hop flooding process, each
intermediate AODVv2 router records a route to the originator. If the
intermediate router has a route to the destination requested in the
RREQ, it may by following the specification in this document supply
that routing information to the originator of the RREQ. Such an RREP
message is termed an "Intermediate RREP" (iRREP). The Intermediate
router also forwards another RREP message to the requested
destination, supplying the destination and other intermediate routers
with a route towards the originator of the RREQ. When the
originator's AODVv2 router receives the iRREP, and the destination
receives iRREP for the originator, routes have then been established
