[Olsr-users] OLSR between different networks

[Henning Rogge]

That would only work if you have exactly two nodes on an interface,
the local one and the "other one". In this case you could set the
broadcast address to the unicast address.

With more nodes it would not work, because the routing protocol learns
about the neighbors by listening to the multicast/broadcast packets.

We began as wanderers, and we are wanderers still. We have lingured
long enough on the shores of the cosmic ocean. We are ready at last to
