Hello!

Sorry about taking your time, but i really need some help...

First of all, sorry about my english, i will try to express the better i can.
I send this need of help for you and for the others developers  
envolved in the batman-adv project, hoping some reply.

My name is Pedro, and i'm writing from Portugal, Oporto.
I'm a student of telecomunications and i'm doing the last work to  
finish my master thesis. It was proposed to me in my school doing a  
management aplication for a batman-adv mesh network... by the way my  
school is ISEP - Oporto Superior Institute of Engeneering.

In this moment i'm trying to setup a basic 2 nodes using batman-adv...
I'm using UBUNTU 10.10 - linux.
I'm using OPENWRT in 2 routers.
The routers are 2 linksys wrt54gs (v1.1 and v3).
I compiled the backfire stable release from:

svn co svn://svn.openwrt.org/openwrt/branches/backfire

Here are my feeds:

src-svn packages  
svn://svn.openwrt.org/openwrt/branches/packages_10.03.2  
svn://svn.openwrt.org/openwrt/packages
src-svn luci  
http://svn.luci.subsignal.org/luci/branches/luci-0.10/contrib/package

I installed the kmod-batman-adv.

I attached a image with a scheme from my test configuration.

..................

When i do:

root@OpenWrt:~# batctl if
br-lan: active
wlan0: active

the two interfaces are active... it seems ok!


root@OpenWrt:~# batctl o
[B.A.T.M.A.N. adv 2012.0.0, MainIF/MAC: br-lan/00:13:10:7c:da:71 (bat0)]

00:06:25:00:63:7b (246)


the node 1 see the node 2... it seems ok!


Here is my /etc/config files for router 1, that is supossed to work as  
a batman-adv gateway:

root@OpenWrt:/etc/config# vi batman-adv
config 'mesh' 'bat0'
         option 'interfaces' 'wifi lan'
         option 'aggregated_ogms' '1'
         option 'ap_isolation' '0'
         option 'bonding' '0'
         option 'fragmentation' '1'
         option 'gw_bandwidth' '5mbit/1024kbit'
         option 'gw_mode' 'server'
         #option 'gw_sel_class'
         option 'log_level' 'all'
         option 'orig_interval' '1000'
         option 'vis_mode' 'server'

after the boot when i do:

root@OpenWrt:~# batctl gw
off

then i do:
root@OpenWrt:~# batctl gw server 5mbit
root@OpenWrt:~# batctl gw
server (announced bw: 4MBit/1024KBit)

should't be necessary do "batctl gw server 5mbit"... it already is  
determinated in the /etc/config/batman-adv... why this happens?

also with the vis mode:

root@OpenWrt:~# batctl vm
client

then i do:

root@OpenWrt:~# batctl vm server
root@OpenWrt:~# batctl vm
server

the same thing happens... why?  ----- the gw definition and the vm  
definition is mandatory to router 2 access internet? or doesn't matter?

here is is my /etc/config files for router 2, that is supossed to work  
as a batman-adv gateway client:

root@OpenWrt:~# vi /etc/config/batman-adv
config 'mesh' 'bat0'
         option 'interfaces' 'wifi lan'
         option 'aggregated_ogms' '1'
         option 'ap_isolation' '0'
         option 'bonding' '0'
         option 'fragmentation' '1'
         #option 'gw_bandwidth'
         option 'gw_mode' 'client'
         option 'gw_sel_class' '2'
         option 'log_level' 'all'
         option 'orig_interval' '1000'
         option 'vis_mode' 'client'

is the file ok?

when i do in node 2:

root@OpenWrt:~# batctl if
br-lan: active
wlan0: active

root@OpenWrt:~# batctl o
[B.A.T.M.A.N. adv 2012.0.0, MainIF/MAC: br-lan/00:06:25:00:63:79 (bat0)]

00:13:10:7c:da:73 (235)


it seems ok...

root@OpenWrt:~# batctl gw
off
  doesn't seem ok...


then i do:

root@OpenWrt:~# batctl gw client 2
root@OpenWrt:~# batctl gw
client (selection class: 2)

root@OpenWrt:~# batctl vm client
root@OpenWrt:~# batctl vm
client


the gw and vm doesn't start/boot with the start configuration... it's  
the same problem...
why this happens? it's crucial for the batman-adv works correctly?

Here is my  network file for router 1 and 2 ( the only difference is  
"lan option ipaddr" and the "wifi option ipaddr"...
Question: is necessary to wifi (wlan0) have static ipaddr or it shouldn't?
The mtu size is ok?

Here is the dhcp file:
P.S. i can access the internet through the eth0.0 (ethernet cable)  
both in router 1 and router 2, but i can't access through wireless  
(neither router 1 and router 2)...
Both routers give IP through cable and trough wireless... the  
conections are always made, and it's possible to access using ssh both  
routers, doesn't matter if the connection is made by cable or by  
air... the difference is to access to internet... only works by cable  
in both routers with the scheme i attached...

Is possible to exist conflict with the IP distribution, because the  
"option authoritative    1"?

Is necessary to change some settings?
It is necessary wifi dhcp to the wireless stations to connect? or  
should they manually set an static IP?

Finally here is my /etc/config/wireless file:

I also have some questions here...
Is necessary the both routers have the same BSSID? Is mandatory to  
have BSSID, or isn't mandatory to aggregate a batman-adv mesh network?
"option network wifi" is correct or should be "option network lan"?



root@OpenWrt:/etc/config# vi wireless
config wifi-device  radio0
         option type     mac80211
         option channel  6
         option phy      phy0
         option hwmode   11g
         option country  PT
         option txpower  20
         option disabled 0



config wifi-iface
         option device   radio0
         option network  wifi
         option mode     adhoc
         option ssid     PR
         option bssid    00:13:10:7c:da:71
         option encryption none

This is it...
Perhaps you don't have the time to analyze all this...
I'm about two months to get this thing done... but i am not capable...
I already asked to my colleagues and to my teachers, but they don't  
know how to...
It's my job...
So i decided to ask for your help, otherwise i think i don't get there  
only by myself... i can't find nothing concrete about these  
configurations anywhere...

Could you please give some light?
I would be very appreciate, and of course i would refer your kindness  
and contribution in the greetings section of my thesis...
Thank you very much.
Best regards and good work.
