Hi,

Our customer is using 20706A2 as HCI type(not standalone) for their project and also uses BlueZ as BT stack on Host.

Customer wants to connect 6LoWPAN over BLE between target device(Host + 20706) and peer device(Sensor server).

Q) I am not sure if 20706 supports for 6LoWPAN over BLE. Is it possible? Because 6LoWPAN is a protocol layer, it has nothing to do with 20706 chip(including f/w)?

Thanks,

Liam

Hi,

20706 doesn't officially provide the IPv4/IPv6 support yet.

It's possible but the Microprocessor Unit resource may not be enough to get 6LoWPAN running.

Best regards
