I have been reading the rfc for babel (haven't really looked at much code yet, just setup a couple of machines last week). I remember some discussion of the telnet interface discussed, but... Could the controller build up the topology via route request messages (section 3.4.10 of the rfc) unicast with a prefix of 0, instead? > Juliusz > > _______________________________________________ > Babel-users mailing list > [email protected] > http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/babel-users > -- Dave Taht http://the-edge.blogspot.com "Most people know my father as the despotic warlord that rules europa but he does have his musing sparky qualities.
