Zigbee mesh routing
Table routing uses Ad Hoc On-Demand Distance Vector Routing (AODV) and the Cluster Tree Algorithm. AODV is a pure on-demand routing system. In this model, nodes don't have to discover one another until there is some association between the two (for example, two nodes need to communicate). AODV also doesn't require nodes that aren't in the routing path to maintain routing information. If a source node needs to communicate to a destination and a path doesn't exist, then a path discovery process starts. AODV provides both unicast and multicast support. It is a reactive protocol; that is, it only provides a route to a destination on demand and not proactively. The entire network is silent until a connection is needed.
