[Olsr-users] How to test DLEP?

[Henning Rogge]

Hi,

look into the DLEP_RADIO_README and DLEP_ROUTER_README (in the dlep
plugin directory for an example) and/or run

/usr/local/bin/olsrd2_static --set global.plugin=dlep_router --set
global.plugin_path=/opt/git-root/oonf/build tap0 --schema=dlep_router

to get a list of parameters of the plugin.

I am in the process writing more "readme" files for OONF, which will
also include DLEP... but it will take more time.
