Markus' implementation doesn't currently do any attempt at link quality estimation, so any pybabel-pybabel link will be treated as if it didn't suffer any loss, which will cause long and highly lossy links to be preferred. I'm pretty sure that would break Dave's network, we'd need to test in a somewhat less hostile environment. As to wired nets, the only limitation I can see right now is that pybabel doesn't disable the Linux kernel's uRPF filter, so unless you remember to do it manually, you're going to get transient blackholes. I'll hopefully be able to tell you more once I've finished reviewing the code and done some testing. By the way -- what Markus has written is some compact, elegant and comprehensible code, and the comments include pointers to RFC 6126. If you grok Python, and if you're the kind of person who understands things better by looking at code, his is the implementation to look at. -- Juliusz _______________________________________________ homenet mailing list [email protected] https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/homenet
