Some time ago we had a proposal (by Linus I believe) which was about detect=
ing
transitive interfaces by exchanging neighbour tables between peers. This wa=
y a
node can understand if every other node behind an interface can talk to each
other or not.

Although this approach sounds more complex, it would also help optimizing t=
he wifi
case: a node can understand if the hosts in an adhoc cells can all talk to =
each
other and then avoid the retransmission (thus saving previous airtime - as =
we
would save bandwidth in a VPN).

The only problem is that this would work only after extending BATMAN V and =
would
unlikely be implemented in BATMAN IV.

Not sure if Linus (?) or anybody else is willing to work on this....but I g=
uess
people would like a solution to be used on BATMAN IV ? Or is this an option=
 ?


Cheers,
