[Olsr-users] Multicast trafic over speedest and most reliable link,

[Taner Kurtulus]

Hi Henning,

Thank you for the very fast response. So, now we will consider implementing
our own multicast routing plugin.

Before implementation we need more information about OLSRv2 and OLSR w/ EXT.


Is OLSRv2 has a plugin like BMF, even  as a dump flooder ?



As I mentioned at my previous post we have two networks with different
characteristics.  We couldn’t find best timeout values for HELLO, TC …
messages.  OLSRv1 packets fills all network.



Could you advise us configuration values for following networks for OLSRv1
with BMF



2 Kbps shared by 10 nodes

4 Kbps shared by 10 nodes

16 Kbps shared by 20 nodes

64 Kbps shared by 20 nodes



Thanks in advance,

Best Regards
