hello, i just have installed olsrd-0.4.9 on the linux routers of the
wireless network i participate in. the network has the following topology:
every router connects with its 2 neighbors forming a circle. so
10.176.6.1<-->10.176.4.1<-->10.176.9.1<-->10.176.10.1<-->10.176.11.1<-->10.176.6.1

my olsrd.conf on every node is something like:

DebugLevel      0
IpVersion       4
AllowNoInt      yes
IpcConnect
{
     MaxConnections  0
     Host            127.0.0.1
}
UseHysteresis no
LinkQualityLevel        2
LinkQualityWinSize      10
Pollrate        0.05
Interface "eth0" "eth1" "eth2" "wifi0" "wifi1" "wlan0" "wlan1"
{
}

first of all, all the 255.255.255.255 netmasks are wrong. for example
10.176.9.1 should have a netmask of 255.255.255.128. what should i do
for this?

also, every router has some static non olsr routes that i want to
propagate to the whole network. for example the router who is the owner
of the 10.176.4.0 class C subnet has the following route:
10.176.4.224/29 10.176.4.6
how can i declare that route? i guess it has something to do with
olsrd.conf and the hna, but i havent figured out how to declare a
gateway there.

thanks for your attention
