Yes, Nordic will come up with an implementation of RPL once the IETF 6LoWPAN WG defines router role for BLE 6LoWPAN. As mentioned earlier, currently only node and border router roles are defined.

Hello Sridhar,

You are right, currently RPL is not implemented. You should note that the IETF Draft for BLE 6LoWPAN describes only 6LoWPAN Node and 6LoWPAN Border Router role. In absence of 6LoWPAN Router role, and support for more advanced topology, implementing RPL may not prove to very valuable. Current topology is star, and all routing of packets is done by the Border Router.

I am not sure I understand your question about implementing RPL on the Raspberry Pi. Raspberry today routes the packets from within Bluetooth Network Interface and other network interfaces example Ethernet based on routing tables and configuration in the network/interfaces file.

Hope this information was useful!

Regards, Krishna

Just to be sure here, what do you mean by RPL?
