6LowPAN (IPv6 Low-power wireless Personal Area Network) es una tecnologia inalambrica basada en IP.
Other solutions such as
6LoWPAN or ZigBee offer lower data rates, thus making real-time applications not possible.
A suitable glue has been used to integrate the transceiver with the IPv6 stack, also containing the
6LoWPAN header compression and adaptation layer for IEEE 802.15.4 links [20].
Edge-router/gateway requires two separate hardware types to fulfill its operations: one to have communication with
6LoWPAN network and the other to provide interconnection between
6LoWPAN and external IP networks.
Performance analysis of objective function MRHOF and OF0 in routing protocol RPL IPV6 over low power wireless personal area networks (
6LoWPAN).
The concept of MANET refers to wireless data networks that operate from the collaborative work of the nodes involved, which in this case are exclusively mobile devices such as smartphones, smartwatch and tablets, with antennas that have limited coverage and support technologies such as WiFi 802.11, Bluetooth (Parker, 2011), ZigBee (ZigBee Alliance, 2016),
6LoWPAN (Shelby & Awasthi, 2013).

6LoWPANs)," RFC Editor, RFC 6775, 2012.
One of the solutions is
6LoWPAN, which incorporates IPv6 with low power personal area networks.
It is implemented into the sensor network that uses the IEEE 802.15.4 standard and the
6LoWPAN adaptation layer.
Luo, "
6LoWPAN: a study on QoS security threats and countermeasures using intrusion detection system approach," International Journal of Communication Systems, vol.
proposed a solution for communicating devices that monitor the health of a bridge, whereby a
6LoWPAN was used [32].
