Detailed Description

A class used for addressing MAC8 MAC's.

This implementation uses a simple 8 bit flat addressing scheme. It is unlikely that perceived underwater networks will soon exceed 200 nodes (or the overlapping of two underwater networks

the ocean is big), so this should provide adequate addressing for most applications.
