49  * @brief
50  *  This module includes definitions related to Border Routing Manager.
51  *
52  *
53  * @{
54  *
55  * All the functions in this module require `OPENTHREAD_CONFIG_BORDER_ROUTING_ENABLE` to be enabled.
56  *
57  * Border Routing Manager handles bi-directional routing between Thread network and adjacent infrastructure link (AIL).
58  *
59  * It emits ICMRv6 ND Router Advertisement (RA) messages on AIL to advertise on-link and route prefixes. It also
60  * processes received RA messages from infrastructure and mirrors the discovered prefixes on the Thread Network Data to
61  * ensure devices on Thread mesh can reach AIL through the Border Router.
62  *
63  * Routing Manager manages the Off-Mesh Routable (OMR) prefix on the Thread Network data which configures Thread
64  * devices with a suitable Off-Mesh Routable IPv6 address. It announces the reachability of this prefix on AIL by
65  * including it in the emitted RA messages as an IPv6 Route Information Option (RIO).
66  *
67  * Routing Manager also monitors and adds on-link prefix on the infrastructure network. If a router on AIL is already
68  * providing RA messages containing an IPv6 Prefix Information Option (PIO) that enables IPv6 devices on the link to
69  * self-configure their own routable unicast IPv6 address, this address can be used by Thread devices to reach AIL. If
70  * Border Router finds no such RA message on AIL, it generates a ULA on-link prefix which it then advertises on AIL in
71  * the emitted RA messages.
