Abstract

Recommendation ITU-T G.9905 specifies centralized metric based source routing (CMSR), a
proactive, layer 2 multi-hop routing protocol. CMSR is a proactive routing protocol which can find
and maintain reliable routes considering the link quality of both directions. The routing control
packet overhead of CMSR is quite low compared to existing proactive routing protocols such as
optimized link state routing (OLSR), so that it can be applied for large-scale networks even on
narrow band power line communication (PLC) networks.
