is marked as reserved. According to this standard, reserved fields have to be set to
zero. At the same time, the IEEE 802.15.4-2003 standard requires ignoring reserved
bits upon reception. Thus, there is a contradiction in the standard which can be
interpreted in two ways:
1. If a network should only allow access to nodes compliant to IEEE 802.15.4-2003,
2. If a device should acknowledge all frames independent of its frame version,
The same holds for PAN coordinators, see below.

then AACK_FVN_MODE should be set to 0.
AACK_FVN_MODE should be set to 3. However, this may result in conflicts with
co-existing IEEE 802.15.4-2006 standard compliant networks.
