IEEE Std 802.15.4-2015 says: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 7.4.4.2 TSCH Synchronization IE The TSCH Synchronization IE Content field shall be formatted as illustrated in Figure 7-50. +-------------+---------------+ | Octets: 5 | 1 | +-------------+---------------+ | ASN | Join Metric | +-------------+---------------+ Figure 7-50 -- TSCH Synchronization IE Content field format The ASN field contains the ASN corresponding to the timeslot in which the enhanced beacon is sent. The ASN is used as the Frame Counter for security operations if enabled. The Join Metric field is an unsigned integer and shall be set to macJoinMetric. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- And ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Section 8.4.2.2 TSCH-specific MAC PIB attributes ... Table 8-83 -- TSCH-specific MAC PIB attributes Attribute Type Range Description Default ... macJoinMetric Integer 0x00–0xff The sum of one and the 1 value of the Join Metric field from the TSCH Synchronization IE, 7.4.4.2, received in the Enhanced Beacon frame used by the device joining the network. If the device is the an endpoint, the value shall be set to zero. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- So it is very clear that Join Metric can be any number between 0x00-0xff. > scheduled cell: A cell which is assigned a neighbor MAC address > (broadcast address is also possible), and one or more of > the following flags: TX, RX, shared, timeskeeping. A > > "timeskeeping" does not seem to be defined anywhere. Timekeeping comes from the IEEE Std 802.15.4-2015 Section 7.4.4.3 TSCH Slotframe and Link IE: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The Timekeeping field shall be set to one if the link is to be used for clock synchronization and shall be set to zero otherwise. RX links shall have the Timekeeping field set to one. -- kivinen@iki.fi
