The RIIM SDK is now supported on Windows 10 in addition to Linux.
The RIIM SDK supports a new node configuration, the Leaf Node, which the RC1882CEF-IPM module can be configured as. The RIIM node configurations now consists of:
- Border Router – As a ROOT node, it acts as the base of the mesh network. It can connect to an external network via ethernet or custom user application on other interfaces such as UART.
- Mesh Router – As a Mesh Router node, it will be able to route packets up and down in the RIIM mesh network.
- Leaf Node – As a Leaf node, it can only route packet to its parent. This configuration is used for very low power network nodes
