hi all,

Is there any way to crate a static route in batman-adv algorithm. Like
telling other nodes to avoid a certain node.

Best regards,
Krishna.

Hi Krishna,

not exactly at the moment. The only way is currently the
hop-penalty knob for things like that. But maybe that's sufficient
for your use-case?

Cheers, Linus

Aside hop penalty you can also play with other layer 3 options to
manipulate the routing. Some are:

* using cryptography for the nodes while having some nodes connecting
only to others with the same password.
* using different channels for the nodes you want to follow only
specific routes.
* specifying which gateway you may want a node or client to be using/exiting
* decreasing or increasing signal intensity as per need and per node
* defining mcast_rates may also help when defining which route to take
based on node rate.

although none of these options are exactly what you are looking for and
they are not batman-adv related; they can help out in some scenarios
depending on your mesh needs at least until better options are available.

Routing greetings
