Cisco, Atmel, and SICS today announced uIPv6, the world's smallest open source compliant IPv6 stack, for Contiki. uIPv6 passes all the tests required for an IPv6 stack to be called IPv6 Ready and we therefore can use the IPv6 Ready logo on the Contiki web site. uIPv6 has been tested on the Atmel AVR Raven platform and on the x86. We have committed the code to the Contiki CVS and will release the code as part of the upcoming 2.3 release, as well as a snapshot release of the current code planned for tomorrow.
Together with uIPv6, we include an 802.15.4 MAC layer for the Raven platform as well as SICSlowpan, an implementation of the 6lowpan header compression mechanism for IPv6 over 802.15.4.
