Dear all, Versions 1.4.2 and 1.3.8 of the babeld routing daemon are available on
http://www.pps.univ-paris-diderot.fr/~jch/software/files/babeld-1.4.2.tar.gz http://www.pps.univ-paris-diderot.fr/~jch/software/files/babeld-1.4.2.tar.gz.asc http://www.pps.univ-paris-diderot.fr/~jch/software/files/babeld-1.3.8.tar.gz http://www.pps.univ-paris-diderot.fr/~jch/software/files/babeld-1.3.8.tar.gz.asc For more information about the Babel routing protocol, please see http://www.pps.univ-paris-diderot.fr/~jch/software/babel/ 1.3.8 is a pure bug-fix release for the old 1.3 branch. The main issue it fixes is a problem with setting the rp_filter sysctl, which should solve mysterious routing issues on Linux distributions that set rp_filter by default (e.g. Arch Linux). 1.4.2 makes extensive changes to the configuration parser. It is now possible to set all parameters of the daemon from the config file; for example, '-k 42' can now be replaced with a config file entry saying kernel-priority 42 In addition, it is now possible to set default values for interface parameters; you can now say default split-horizon false and split horizon will be disabled for all interfaces unless you say otherwise. Finally, 1.4.2 under Linux allows exporting routes from multiple kernel tables, which is needed due to recent changes in the default configuration of OpenWRT. (Thanks to Toke Høiland-Jørgensen.) Enjoy, -- Juliusz Chroboczek 19 June 2013: babeld-1.4.2 * Extensive changes to the configuration parser. It is now possible to set all command-line options from the configuration file, and to specify default values for interface parameters. * Allow redistributing routes from multiple kernel tables. Thanks to Toke Høiland-Jørgensen. * Fix some whitespace issues in the configuration parser. * Fix a bug in the configuration parser that could give wrong values to some exotic interface parameters (channel and faraway). * Fix a bug that could cause some extra traffic at shutdown. Thanks to Matthieu Boutier. * Under Linux, set rp_filter explicitly for all interfaces. This avoids mysterious routing failures on distributions that set rp_filter by default.
