Hi Jason,
 
The text in red explains the way forward route is created during a route discovery procedure. While receiving a RREP on an intermediate node, forward route is created by taking dest_addr as the address in "Destination IP Address" field of RREP message format and next_hop as the "Source Address" in IP header.
 
Hope this helps.

Hi all,

I do not understand the bit about the next hop route entry (highlighted in red text below) from the AODV RFC 3561. Can anyone help please?

6.7. Receiving and Forwarding Route Replies

   If the route table entry to the destination is created or updated,

   then the following actions occur:

   -  the route is marked as active,

   -  the destination sequence number is marked as valid,

   -  the next hop in the route entry is assigned to be the node from

      which the RREP is received, which is indicated by the source IP

      address field in the IP header,

Thanks,

Jason
