- help
- B.A.T.M.A.N. (better approach to mobile ad-hoc networking) is
- a routing protocol for multi-hop ad-hoc mesh networks. The
- networks may be wired or wireless. See
- https://www.open-mesh.org/ for more information and user space
- tools.
- config BATMAN_ADV_BATMAN_V
- bool "B.A.T.M.A.N. V protocol (experimental)"
- depends on BATMAN_ADV && CFG80211=y || (CFG80211=m && BATMAN_ADV=m)
- default n
- help
- This option enables the B.A.T.M.A.N. V protocol, the successor
- of the currently used B.A.T.M.A.N. IV protocol. The main
- changes include splitting of the OGM protocol into a neighbor
- discovery protocol (Echo Location Protocol, ELP) and a new OGM
- Protocol OGMv2 for flooding protocol information through the
- network, as well as a throughput based metric.
- B.A.T.M.A.N. V is currently considered experimental and not
- compatible to B.A.T.M.A.N. IV networks.
- config BATMAN_ADV_BLA
- bool "Bridge Loop Avoidance"
- depends on BATMAN_ADV && INET
- default y
- help
- This option enables BLA (Bridge Loop Avoidance), a mechanism
- to avoid Ethernet frames looping when mesh nodes are connected
- to both the same LAN and the same mesh. If you will never use
- more than one mesh node in the same LAN, you can safely remove
- this feature and save some space.
- config BATMAN_ADV_DAT
- bool "Distributed ARP Table"
- depends on BATMAN_ADV && INET
- default n
- help
- This option enables DAT (Distributed ARP Table), a DHT based
- mechanism that increases ARP reliability on sparse wireless
- mesh networks. If you think that your network does not need
- this option you can safely remove it and save some space.
- config BATMAN_ADV_NC
- bool "Network Coding"
- depends on BATMAN_ADV
- default n
- help
- This option enables network coding, a mechanism that aims to
- increase the overall network throughput by fusing multiple
- packets in one transmission.
- Note that interfaces controlled by batman-adv must be manually
- configured to have promiscuous mode enabled in order to make
- network coding work.
- If you think that your network does not need this feature you
- can safely disable it and save some space.
- config BATMAN_ADV_MCAST
- bool "Multicast optimisation"
- depends on BATMAN_ADV && INET && !(BRIDGE=m && BATMAN_ADV=y)
- default n
- help
- This option enables the multicast optimisation which aims to
- reduce the air overhead while improving the reliability of
- multicast messages.
- config BATMAN_ADV_DEBUGFS
- bool "batman-adv debugfs entries"
- depends on BATMAN_ADV
- depends on DEBUG_FS
- default y
- help
- Enable this to export routing related debug tables via debugfs.
- The information for each soft-interface and used hard-interface can be
- found under batman_adv/
- If unsure, say Y.
- config BATMAN_ADV_DEBUG
- bool "B.A.T.M.A.N. debugging"
- depends on BATMAN_ADV_DEBUGFS
- help
- This is an option for use by developers; most people should
- say N here. This enables compilation of support for
- outputting debugging information to the kernel log. The
- output is controlled via the module parameter debug.
