A wireless, peer-to-peer, capability addressable network ( ) is disclosed. The network ( ) accommodates any number of peers ( ). Network connections are formed based upon proximity between peers ( ) and upon a needs and capabilities evaluation ( ). Wireless communications occur at a sufficiently low power to form a detection zone ( ) of less than about five meters for many peers ( ).

Capability addressable network and method therefor

A method for bonding (,) to a device (,). The method includes a step of transmitting a beacon message (,). The method also includes steps of (i) selecting a beacon opcode (,), (ii) selecting an identifier (,), (iii) selecting an identifier type (,), (iii) selecting an identifier address (,), composing the beacon opcode (,), the identifier (,), the identifier type (,) and the identifier address (,) into the beacon message (,). The method also includes a step of receiving, in response to the transmitting step, a make bond message (,).
