ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus are described for locating a route between a source node and a destination node in an on-demand wireless network including flooding the wireless network with a route request message by the source node and receiving a route reply message responsive to the route request message from a first intermediate node having a valid route to the destination node, wherein the first intermediate node responds to the route request message based on a condition of a flag in the route request message. Also described are a method and apparatus for locating a route between a source node and a destination node in an on-demand wireless network including receiving a route request message from the source node and responding to the route request message with a route reply message by a first intermediate node having a valid route to the destination node, wherein the intermediate node responds to the route request message based on a condition of a flag in the route request message.
