- IEEE 802.15.4 is a standard for communication in small
- low-rate wireless personal area networks (WPAN). While
- 802.15.4 is a MAC- and PHY- layer standard only, several
- common protocols commonly sit on top of it such as ZigBee,
- MiWi, and 6LoWPAN. The goal of this project is to create an
- implementation of 802.15.4 and several of the protocols
- which run on top of it (primarily 6LoWPAN) for Linux.
- It's worth noting that the name linux-zigbee is somewhat of
- a misnomer. While this project was originally started to
- create a ZigBee implementation for Linux, licensing
- restrictions put in place by the ZigBee Alliance make it
- impossible for an implementation of ZigBee to ever become
- part of the Linux kernel. Once this licensing issue was
- discovered, this project's primary focus shifted to IEEE
- 802.15.4 and 6LoWPAN. Other higher-layer standards may be
- added at a future time.
- The 802.15.4 stack contains kernel components, which are
- part of the mainline Linux kernel, and userspace components,
- available in this package.

- Enable this option to get compatibility of the Linux-ZigBee
- userspace tools with old kernels. Recent kernels know the
- 802.15.4 line discipline as N_IEEE802154 with the value 25,
- but some older kernels had it with the values 22 or 19.
