RPL Network Authentication

RPL network simulation using 6lowpan for a hospital, with authentication added

Features

  • RPL network using 6lowpan
  • Authentication scheme that makes Brute Force and MITM attacks very tough
  • COAP REST Engine to allow collection of data from 6lowpan network via applications on the Internet

Run an example

  • Open multi-room-contiki3.csc
  • Make sure Serial Socket {Server} is on
  • On a terminal inside contiki-3.0/tools run the following commands 
    make tunslip6   # only if you haven't done this ever before, needed only once
sudo ./tunslip6 -a 127.0.0.1 aaaa::1/64   #needs to be run everytime the simulation is run
  • Now Start the simulation, since there are a lot of motes, ample amount of time will be taken to generate routes and start exchanging data
  • COAP requests (via Mozilla Firefox) can be made to any of the sensor motes to get relevant information

Points to remember

The simulated environment has some restrictions

  • Mote 1 should be rpl border router
  • Motes 2, 9, 16, 23 and so on need to necessarily be RFID servers These restrictions are required to make sure all sensors can properly identify the IP Address of their respective RFID nodes
