Common Message Header
| unsigned char flags |
Flags to indicate various stuff; dependent on application. One might be for a pending firmware update. For battery powered devices one might indicate low batt.
| unsigned char mac[8] |
MAC Address of sender (for messages from device to server) or of destination (for messages from server to device). Mainly used for messages going through a gateway (e.g. Zigbee to Ethernet) so that the server receiving the message knows who sent the message. While this can be obtained by querying the network, it's faster to put it in the message
| unsigned int sequence |
Application level sequence number, used to track response from the server etc. LSB first
| unsigned char version |
Protocol version. If message protocol changes then use a different number for version and if/then on receiver accordingly
