[OLSR-users] OLSR and system date changes (again)

[Ignacio García Pérez]

Hi,

Just a quick question: some time ago I asked about OLSR robustness upon
system date changes. That raised some discussion that ended in Andreas
making some changes to the code, which I believe will be released in version
0.4.9.

Today, I had to move the system time one hour forward in all our systems
(I'm using release 0.4.8), and verified that as soon as I changed the time,
I lost communication with the nodes, which was restored some time later. I
GUESS that moving the time forward one hour made all HELLO and other
information immediately obsolete and olsrd discarded all routes (I say
"guess" because I have no logs of what happened actually since it was a
remote connection, and want to mess with the nodes as little as possible).

Can someone please confirm this?

(just to be sure I did not stepped on some other kind of glitch / bug)

Thanks.

Nacho.
