2. Network of 7 nodes R E A B D S C S is the source D is the destination
R is the mesh root
ABCE are just nodes in network
Each color circle around the node tells the transmit range of the node

B already has route from SAB received in time 3, lets say this new received route SCB is better, does it transmit new path to its neighbors to update better path?
