Abstract
Disclosed is a method for managing addresses in a network. The network includes a plurality of nodes. The method includes receiving at a first node, a node capability index value of a second node, from the second node. Further, the method includes determining at the first node, a set of addresses to be assigned to the second node based on the node capability index value of the second node. Thereafter, the method includes assigning the set of addresses to the second node by the first node. A system for managing the addresses in the network is also disclosed.

A method for managing addresses in a network, the network including a plurality of nodes, the method comprising the steps of:
- receiving at a first node, a node capability index value of a second node from the second node;
- determining at the first node, a set of addresses to be assigned to the second node based on the node capability index value of the second node;
- and
- assigning by the first node the set of addresses to the second node.
A system for managing addresses in a network comprising a plurality of nodes, the system comprising:
- a receiving module disposed in a first node, the receiving module configured to receive a node capability index value of a second node;
- and
- an address assignment module disposed in the first node and communicating with the receiving module, the address assignment module configured to assign a set of addresses to the second node based on the node capability index value of the second node.
