ABSTRACT:
In a mesh communication network, new network nodes acquire information about nearby nodes to which they may communicate through a third-party query whereby an established node with which a new node can communicate is queried to provide a list of nodes in the vicinity of the new nodes with which the new node is likely to be able to communicate. The new node uses this list in attempting to establish communication links and then repeats the third-party query for each node in the list to which it can communicate.
