What about deleting or blocking peer links? # iw dev mesh station $HW_ADDR set plink_action [open|block] # iw dev mesh station del $HW_ADDR Documented here: http://o11s.org/trac/wiki/HOWTO#AdvancedTinkering Cheers, Javier > At first I tried using ebtables, to force packet-drop upon mac addresses > rules, with no luck, mesh nodes still see full mesh connections. > > I am trying iptables now, but can't still find a working set of rules. > > [Let's say i work with three nodes A---B---C and want to kill mesh > connection between A and C: > $ iptables -t mangle -A PREROUTNIG -m mac -mac-source xx:xx:xx:xx:xx -j DROP > on node A where xx is C mac address] > > I am wondering if any of you can share any ideas on how i can manage to run > these tests. > > I know there are working commands (iw ...) but those commands work directly > on 80211s mpath, and this is not what i want. > > Hope i made myself clear, thanks in advance for your time. > > > > > _______________________________________________ > Devel mailing list > [email protected] > http://open80211s.com/mailman/listinfo/devel > > -- Javier Cardona cozybit Inc. _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list [email protected] http://open80211s.com/mailman/listinfo/devel
