Hi!
I am tying to set up an experiment in which I need to route packets between
2 wired networks with a wireless ad hoc network in the middle. I used as a
baseline the wired-cum-wireless example. My results so far are as follows:
1- I have no problem routing between two nodes within the wireless domain,
even to/from base stations (HA and FA).
2- When I try to route traffic between the base stations (HA and FA),
packets prefer the wireless netwok rather than the wired domain that they
share.
3- I am unable to route packets from the wired network beyond the first hop
of the wireless network.
4- The example works well with AODV, DSDV and AOMDV, but it complains when I
try to use DSR or TORA
My questions are:
a- I basically need to know what is going on inside the base stations. How
can I ensure/test that routing information is being propagated
(redistributed) between the wired and wireless domains? Can I have the
protocol propagate static routes both ways, if needed? How would I configure
that in the tcl script?
b- Once I make sure that all information is being routed correctly, what
would be the best configuration with regards to hierarchical addressing for
the two wired domains, so that the routing can flow correctly between them
while traversing the wireless network?
c- Do I need any extra parameter/configuration to set up the same scenario
with DSR or TORA?
Your help will be appreciated. Thank you.
Best regards,
Eric Miedzowicz
