"iwpan dev wpan0 set pan_id 0xbeef" or something else Then create a lowpan interface with: ip link add link wpan0 name lowpan0 type lowpan lowpan0 is now your ipv6 interface which use 6LoWPAN. I will try to make some better new documentation in wpan.cakelab.org with some asciidoc generated html pages... when I find some time. - Alex
