Abstract
In embodiments of mesh network addressing, a border router receives an address prefix and associated configuration information from an external network. The received address prefix and the configuration information enable the border router to create a provisioning domain that includes the received address prefix and the configuration information, as well as a unique identifier. The border router forwards the created provisioning domain to a leader device in the mesh network that stores the provisioning domain and propagates the provisioning domain to routers to enable packet addressing and routing in the mesh network.
