Subject: Does batman choose DHCP server by random?
Date: Thu, 17 Sep 2020 22:23:24 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <5e4c619d-bdb1-2fa7-57cc-e5d71ea13f08@kkk-web.de> (raw)

Hi meshing list.

We are running a batman 2020.2 based mesh network.

Clients connect to one gateway but pull IPv4 addresses from _another_
gateway. This leads to packets flowing between gateways instead of
leaving the mesh on the shortest route possible.

Is this intended behaviour? Is it random? Is there a config option to
alter this packet flow?

gw_mode is set to "server" on all gateways, bandwith announcement is the
same on all gateways (10/10 MBit). So no imbalance here.

Regards,
Martin
