Abstract

In embodiments of mesh network addressing, a router registers an address for an end device and assigns a child identifier to the end device. The router encodes an endpoint identifier of the end device, and a router identifier of the router into an Endpoint Identifier, which the router incorporates into a Routing Locator (RLOC) for the end device. The router responds to address queries and receives data packets on behalf of the end device. The router stores the data packets for the end device until the router can forward the data packets to the end device.
