We implemented two ways to force topologies for testing: blacklisting and whitelisting. For blacklisting you should set auto_plinks to true, wait for the fully connected topology to be created and then "prune" the links with plink_action block (all of this, with iw). For whitelisting you should set auto_plinks to false, flush all the established plinks, if any, and then manually establish peer links with plink_action open. If you don't care about what peer links are established but only would like to force a particular path, the set next_hop option should work. But IIRC, paths that are configured this way take precedence over dynamically established paths and never expire. So they will prevent your mesh network from self-healing.
