AODV is a routing protocol, and it deals with route table management.
Route table information must be kept even for short-lived routes,
such as are created to temporarily store reverse paths towards nodes
originating RREQs. AODV uses the following fields with each route
table entry:
- Destination IP Address
- Destination Sequence Number
- Valid Destination Sequence Number flag
- Other state and routing flags (e.g., valid, invalid, repairable,
being repaired)
- Network Interface
- Hop Count (number of hops needed to reach destination)
- Next Hop
- List of Precursors (described in Section 6.2)
- Lifetime (expiration or deletion time of the route)
