Router sending Route Records constantly

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: Z-STACK

I have a coordinator/concentrator and a few routers lined up so that they form essentially a linear network.

ZCO<---->ZR-A<---->ZR-B<--->ZR-C

This is all running on the latest (2.6) z-stack with zigbeepro enabled.

Every 2 seconds the routers each send sensor data to the coordinator.

Why am I also getting a NWK Route Record from all of my devices on every sensor transmission? What is this additional packet and why is it being sent constantly?

    Hi Bob,

    To get a better understanding of the Rout Record Command I suggest taking a look at section 5.4.3 of the Z-Stack Developer's Guide as this document has a detailed description of this command.

    Thank you. This does explain what the packet is, but I guess the bigger question is why it's happening on EVERY packet? 5.4.3 also says "Therefore, devices only need to send route record command once." That's not what I'm seeing. Doing it on every data packet essentially doubles the amount of traffic needlessly. How do I make it send this Route Record less frequently?
