Hi,

another feature i forgot in the last mail :)

It would be great if batman allows to dynamic add and remove announced
networks via the unix socket interface.

for example
# adds new announced network
batmand -c -a someip/mask
# removes some announced network
batmand -c -A someip/mask

why ?
we are working on the posibility to give a computer in the mesh a unique
ip, besides the network the node is serving. if you assign a unique ip
to a computer, and get a dhcp lease of another node, the node would then
add your ip as a hostroute announcement to batman, which would overwrite
the default place: your home network. this would mean real mobile ip
without the overhead of sending the traffic to your home router and then
forward to your actual position.

besides this, it would allow better integration into bgp by simply
spawning a script to add/remove routes via zebra.

kindly regards
  daniel
