Many-to-One Route Request Indicator - 0xA3
Description
A many-to-one route request is sent as a broadcast message from a concentrator (AR < 0xFF).
When a node receives a many-to-one broadcast, it will create a route table entry for the concentrator,
preventing the need to do a route discovery when sending data to that destination.
Format
The following table provides the contents of the frame. For details on frame structure, see API frame
format.

Suppose a device with a 64-bit address of 0x0013A200 40401122 and 16-bit address of 0x0000 sends a
many-to-one route request. All remote routers operating in API mode that receive the many-to-one
broadcast send the following example API frame out their serial port.
