Lightweight embedded systems

Adoption means application layered gateways (ALGs) must be implemented to ensure the translation between non-IP and IP layers.

Adaptation involves replacing all non-IP layers with their IP layer counterparts, simplifying the deployment model and operations.

Fire alarms send alerts or daily test reports

One of the drawbacks of the adaptation model is a general dependency

on single PHY and MAC layers

ZigBee devices must only be deployed in ZigBee network islands

Power consumption is a key characteristic of constrained nodes

High-speed connections are usable by all IoT devices in the last mile.

IETF has been working on transitioning the Internet from IP version 4 to IP version 6.
