For that purpose, this document specifies AODV-RPL -- the\r\nRouting Protocol for Low-Power and Lossy Networks (RPL) based on Ad\r\nhoc On-demand Distance Vector (AODV) routing. AODV-RPL is a reactive\r\nP2P route discovery mechanism for both hop-by-hop routes and source\r\nrouting. Paired instances are used to construct directional paths\r\nfor cases where there are asymmetric links between source and target\r\nnodes.","pub_date":"October 2025","keywords":["AODV","Peer-to-Peer Route Discovery","Asymmetric"],"obsoletes":[],"obsoleted_by":[],"updates":[],"updated_by":[],"see_also":[],"doi":"10.17487\/RFC9854","errata_url":null}
