[Olsr-users] Dual Radio on OLSRd2

[Syed Salman Haider Rizvi]

Hi
 I remember my radio nodes had IP like 10.0.1.x and loopback interface was like 169.254.x.x not exactly i think . But what i m getting from you now is that my radio node should not be set to any IP but what should i set to loopback interface ?
