That would be pretty strange as batman always has to make sure that the 
connection goes in both directions. Can you post the originators output plus 
the batping result ?

This message indicates that this nodes already has one interface which is not 
activate. Could you post "cat /proc/net/batman-adv/interfaces" after you get 
this result ?

Can you explain the exact steps to reproduce this behaviour ?
