Hello Don,

Debug Level 2 will list the available gateways. There is no need to
restart BATMAN, it will notice the new gateway available gateways
automatically (the gateways are announced with the BATMAN-packets). One
of the gateways will be selected depending on the configuration at -r.

You might want to read the howto [1] for further information. :)
Please ask again if your question is not answered there.

regards,
Simon
