Re: Batman adv selective broadcast mechanism

[oytunyapar]

Hi Linus,

I hard coded it, instead of making a configuration. We could use with this 
way.
You are correct Linus, it's not 802.11 wifi. We are using MARLIN protocol 
(NATO STANAG-4691).
This protocol aims for gaining TCP/IP features to HF and UHF radios.
We are using BATMAN protocol, for inter-MARLIN network routing. MARLIN 
itself has features for handling routing, internally, for a single  MARLIN 
network.

Re: Batman adv selective broadcast mechanism

Hi Linus,

Thank you for the answer. Configuring batman-adv from /sys is deprecated in 
the last version (batctl is the only way now). I am not sure how to apply this 
patch. What do you suggest as a proper way of doing this?

Batman adv selective broadcast mechanism

[oytunyapar]

Hi everybody,

As I check, batman-adv protocol, sends IP broadcast packets, to every slave 
interface, including the slave interface from which the broadcast packet is 
received. Is there any way for preventing the batman-adv from sending IP 
broadcast packets to some of the slave interfaces (etc. the one which the 
packet is received)?

Neighbor and originator purge timeout

[oytunyapar]

Hi everybody,

As I checked from source code, BATADV_PURGE_TIMEOUT value determines:
1- When a node will be discarded from the neighbor list, if this particular 
node did not send ELP messages for BATADV_PURGE_TIMEOUT amount of time
2- When a node will be discarded from the originator list, if this 
particular node did not send OMG messages for 2 * BATADV_PURGE_TIMEOUT amount 
of time

BATADV_PURGE_TIMEOUT is constant, and determined in compile time. It seem, 
it could not be configured via "batctl" utility.

   Am I correct?

Re: batman-adv for kbit level speeds, external neighbor info

Ok Linus, I will make my trials by using relative speeds. Thank you for the 
answer.

Thank you for the answers Sven

batman-adv for kbit level speeds, external neighbor info

[oytunyapar]

Hi everybody,

I have some questions about batman-adv.
Do you suggest, batman-adv, for speeds like 2.4kbit/s (very slow networks)? 
I tried to use batctl throughput_override, for such a setup. It seems at least 
100kbit/s speed is valid for this utility.
Is there any way, feeding neighbor information to batman-adv externally 
(etc. using DLEP protocol, as an external link monitor)?
Thank you in advance.
