pub const MAC_REPEATER_ENABLED: u32 = 70;Expand description
Autonomous MAC-layer repeater/forwarding enable (PROP_MAC_REPEATER_ENABLED).
First of the device-behavior settings range (70–95), which is
subdivided as 70–79 repeater and identity, 80–87 advertisement
policy (80–82 allocated, 83–87 spare), 88–93 positioning, 94–95
environmental sensing (94 illuminance, 95 spare — the board’s
thermistor is the expected claimant). A
single-octet identifier is the scarce resource, so the positioning
range holds the enable toggle and the fix telemetry a host reads
and the device announces continually; the rarely-touched
positioning configuration lives in the extended device range
alongside PROP_TIME. A persisted, device-domain boolean: when
set, the device identity’s on-board MAC forwards overheard routable
frames and advertises the REP capability bit. The advertised
role is a separate matter — see IDENT_ROLE.
