  This README contains information how to establish an IPv6 connecton between
  Linux BLE router and an IPSP enabled BLE device.
  
  Prerequisites
  =============
  In general, any device capable of running Linux operating system, can be used
  as a BLE router provided the following conditions are met:
  
  * Linux Kernel >3.18 is used
  * bluez, libcap-ng0, radvd tools are present.
  
  If a built-in Bluetooth device is not available then Bluetooth 4.0 compatible
  USB dongle can be used.
  
  The following procedures have been tested on Ubuntu 15.10.
  
  Establishing an IPv6 connection
  ===============================
  Use the following procedure to establish a connection between an nRF52 device
  and Linux router:
  
  First enable 6LoWPAN module. This is neccessary only once per session:
  
  	# Log in as a root user.
  	sudo su
  	
  	# Mount debugfs file system.
  	mount -t debugfs none /sys/kernel/debug
  	
  	# Load 6LoWPAN module.
  	modprobe bluetooth_6lowpan
  	
  	# Enable the bluetooth 6lowpan module.
  	echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/bluetooth/6lowpan_enable
  	
  	# Look for available HCI devices.
  	hciconfig
  	
  	# Reset HCI device - for example hci0 device.
  	hciconfig hci0 reset
  	
  	# Read 00:AA:BB:XX:YY:ZZ address of the nRF5x device.
  	hcitool lescan
  	
  If you see device name and address in lescan output then you can connect to the
  device:
  	
  	echo "connect 00:AA:BB:XX:YY:ZZ 1" > /sys/kernel/debug/bluetooth/6lowpan_control
  	
  If above is successful then LED1 will stop blinking and LED2 will switch on.
  You can then check the connection using the following commands:
  
  	# Check if bt0 interface is present and up
  	ifconfig
  	
  	# Try to ping the device using its link-local address, for example, on bt0 interface.
  	ping6 fe80::2aa:bbff:fexx:yyzz%bt0
  	
  If you'd like to learn more about the procedure please refer to
  [Connecting devices to the router].
  
  Distributing routable IPv6 prefix
  =================================
  In Linux, Router Advertisement Daemon (RADVD) can be used to distribute prefixes
  in the network, hance configure routable IPv6 address.
  
  To configure RADVD create `/etc/radvd.conf` file and paste the following contents:
  
  	interface bt0
  	{
  	    AdvSendAdvert on;
  	    prefix 2001:db8::/64
  	    {
  	        AdvOnLink off;
  	        AdvAutonomous on;
  	        AdvRouterAddr on;
  	    };
  	};
  
  Next, start RADVD daemon:
  
  	# Set IPv6 forwarding (must be present).
  	sudo echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/all/forwarding
  	# Run radvd daemon.
  	sudo service radvd restart
  	
  If successfull then all devices connected to the host will receive
  a routable `2001:db8` prefix.
  
  This can be verified by sending echo request to the full address:
  
  	ping6 -I bt0 2001:db8::2aa:bbff:fexx:yyzz
  
  where `aa:bbff:fexx:yyzz` is device Bluetooth address.
  
  If you'd like to learn more about the procedure please refer to
  [Distributing a global IPv6 prefix].
