Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) plays a significant role in measuring different physical factors that affects the environment in various fields. WSN are deployed into Low power Lossy Networks (LLN) in different fields like agricultural, medical and industries in sensing the physical characteristics and responding with reliable actuating devices. WSN devices communicating via internet had made new era for IOT. WSN are low energy constrained devices with sensing and actuating for continuous monitoring and sharing the information over various platforms over a network (data dissemination towards sink node).IETF has standardized RPL as an optimized routing protocol for IPv6 in Low power Lossy Networks. In real world scenarios , RPL’s performance is measured by various metrics packet delivery ratio, ETX for optimization of throughput by enhancing power consumption.
