I see... I get your point there...<br>Other than the blackhole route method which might somehow block off unicast packet.<br>Is there a way to convert unicast packets in to OLSR packet... maybe something like encapsulate Non-olsr packet into olsr packet? <br>
If it can be done... will the packet be block off by the secure plugin??<div><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, May 11, 2011 at 10:54 PM, Henning Rogge <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:henning.rogge@fkie.fraunhofer.de">henning.rogge@fkie.fraunhofer.de</a>></span> wrote:<br>

</div>Yes... you could easily ping the neighbor even without running OLSRd at all,<br>
because its in ARP range. OLSRd cannot prevent this.<br>
<br>
Keep in mind OLSRd does only setup IP forwarding routes, it does not forward<br>
the traffic itself.<br>

</div>You might be able to do this by setting up a blackhole route for the mesh<br>
network, so that all unicast packets without an explicit OLSRd routes are not<br>
send at all.<br>
<br>
But this neither would prevent an 'attacker' from sending the packet anyways<br>
nor would it block multicast traffic from services like Zeroconf.<br>
