Ad-Hoc Networking: AODV Example
n Suppose MH1 moves away from MH2 towards MH7 and
has active sessions with MH3 and MH6:
MH2 notices that its link to MH1 is broken
MH2 checks its routing table and finds that its link to MH1 was
actively in use by MH3 and MH4
MH2 unicasts an ¥-metric route update, with an incremented
destination sequence number, to MH3 and MH4. MH3 may
subsequently issue a new route request for MH4
MH4 also notes that its route to MH1 was actively in use and
forwards a ¥ -metric route update to MH6
the ¥-metric route update for MH1 may also be included in the
next periodic limited broadcast issued by MH2
MH6 may subsequently issue a new route request for MH1
any subsequent route request for MH1 which is satisfied by a route
reply through MH2 may cause MH2 to update its route table
