[Olsr-users] 802.11S

[Don Moskaluk]

First of all thanks for all commenting on the 802.11S issue and yes it
time is to put this discussion to bed even with Hiede.  

Before I spend a small fortune converting to OLSR I just wanted to
ensure that moving forward that there is a core of developers that
understand 802.11S and the relationship with OLSR.  You convinced me and
thank you!

Sincerely,

Don Moskaluk

Don,

let's get this discussion over and finished please.

1) YES, any properly 802.11s based device will have the possibility  
to have olsr from olsr.org running on top of it (since it is layer 2  
and olsr is layer 3)
2) no, you need to worry about it. It is going to work out great
3) there might be interesting combinations of layer 2 information and  
layer 3 routing daemons.
working on it...


And now let's all please go back to our regular b-friends/girlfriends  
and *end*this*discussion*. It is useless.

a.

802.11s scales only to 32 nodes per definition, that is what I  
believe hannes actually meant.
