Hi Antonio,

thanks for trying the patch! In my case, it worked, I tried it with
ebtables -I INPUT -s MAC -j DROP or
ebtables -I INPUT -p 0x4305 -j DROP
(and the same for -I OUTPUT)

batctl td reported, that it's not receiving any batman packets anymore and =
also
the originator table was empty after a couple of minutes.

Hmm, and also that batping is timing out for you seems to indicate that it =
should work
on your side. Could you check with batctl td too? How long have you been wa=
iting for
the originator table to clear? (dead nodes are not being cleared immediatel=
y in batman,
as they don't harm the routing decisions and we still need the last measure=
ments in case they
might get alive again)

Cheers, Linus
