To: b.a.t.m.a.n
After the infamous "neighbo(u)rs" patches, I wanted to send some more release
critical fixes. :)
There are just some possible problems found by Debian's lintian (or by me after
searching for more typos) which could easily fixed by upstream. No big changes,
but some letters exchanged.
There is also some sentence in the batman manpage which should maybe changed.
Maybe a native english speaking person could check if it is valid and
understandable.
"B.A.T.M.A.N tries to find the best available connection by watching the
uplinks throughput and the link quality."

It is O.K. I would probably say link, not uplink. However, this basic description is not really correct, at least not for batman-adv. The throughput is not used in deciding on links to use.

How about this: B.A.T.M.A.N. proactively maintains information about the existence of all nodes in the mesh that are accessible via single-hop or multi-hop communication links and chooses the best path towards the destination based on statistical analysis of protocol packet loss and propagation speed. @Sven: I applied all your patches (rev: 1530, 1531, 1532).

This quote was a bit out of context because B.A.T.M.A.N. indeed considers the throughput when choosing the best gateway.

In combination with a bat\-hosts file batctl allows the use of host names instead of MAC addresses. .PP B.A.T.M.A.N. advanced operates on layer 2. Thus all hosts participating in the virtual switched network are transparently connected together for all protocols above layer 2. Therefore the common diagnosis tools do not work as expected. To overcome these problems batctl contains the commands \fBping\fP, \fBtraceroute\fP, \fBtcpdump\fP which provide similar functionality to the normal \fBping\fP(1), \fBtraceroute\fP(1), \fBtcpdump\fP(1) commands, but modified to layer 2 behaviour or using the B.A.T.M.A.N. advanced protocol. .PP .PP .SH OPTIONS .TP .I \fBbatctl\-options: \-h print general batctl help .br \-v print batctl version .br .TP .I \fBcommands: .IP "\fBinterface\fP|\fBif\fP [\fBnone\fP|\fIinterface\fP]" If no parameter is given the current interface settings are displayed otherwise the parameter(s) are added as new interfaces. Use the "none" keyword to deactivate all interfaces. .br .IP "\fBoriginators\fP|\fBo\fP [\fB\-b\fP][\fB\-n\fP]" Display the originator table. Once started batctl will refresh the displayed originator table every second. The "\-b" option causes the table to be displayed only once (useful for scripts). If "\-n" is given batctl will not replace the MAC addresses with bat\-host names in the output. .br .IP "\fBinterval\fP|\fBit\fP [\fIorig_interval\fP]" If no parameter is given the current originator interval setting is displayed otherwise the parameter is used to set the originator interval. The interval is in units of milliseconds. .br .IP "\fBloglevel\fP|\fBll\fP [\fIlevel\fP]" If no parameter is given the current log level settings are displayed otherwise the parameter is used to set the log level. Level 0 disables all logging. Level 1 enables messages related to routing / flooding / broadcasting. Level 2 enables messages related to route or hna added / changed / deleted. Level 3 enables all messages. The messages are sent to the kernel log. Use \fBdmesg\fP(1) to see them. .br .IP "\fBlog\fP|\fBl\fP [\fIlogfile\fP][\fB\-b\fP][\fB\-n\fP]\fP" batctl will read the file logfile, or stdin if the logfile parameter is not given, applying filtering so only the B.A.T.M.A.N. Advanced messages are displayed. Whenever there are new log messages appended to the file batctl will display them. The option "\-b" causes batctl to exit once the end of the file has been reached. If "\-n" is given batctl will not replace the MAC addresses with bat\-host names in the output. .br .IP "\fBtranslocal\fP|\fBtl\fP [\fB\-b\fP][\fB\-n\fP]" Display the local translation table. batctl will refresh the displayed table every second. The "\-b" option causes the table to be displayed only once (useful for scripts). If "\-n" is given batctl will not replace the MAC addresses with bat\-host names in the output. .br .IP "\fBtransglobal\fP|\fBtg\fP [\fB\-b\fP][\fB\-n\fP]" Display the global translation table. batctl will refresh the displayed table every second. The "\-b" option causes the table to be displayed only once (useful for scripts). If "\-n" is given batctl will not replace the MAC addresses with bat\-host names in the output. .br .IP "\fBvis dot\fP [\fB\-n\fP|\fB\-\-numbers\fP][\fB\-h\fP|\fB\-\-no-HNA\fP][\fB\-2\fP|\fB\-\-no-2nd\fP]" Display the visualisation data in graphviz \fBdot\fP(1) format. If "\-\-numbers" or "\-n" is given batctl will not replace the MAC addresses with bat-host names in the output. With "\-\-no-HNA" or "\-h" the HNA entries are not displayed, so the pure mesh topology can be seen. With "\-\-no-2nd" or "\-2" a dot cluster is not formed around primary and secondary addresses from the same device. .br .IP "\fBvis json\fP [\fB\-n\fP|\fB\-\-numbers\fP][\fB\-h\fP|\fB\-\-no-HNA\fP][\fB\-2\fP|\fB\-\-no-2nd\fP]" Display the visualisation data in JSON format.

With "\-\-no-HNA" or "\-h" the HNA entries are not displayed, so the pure mesh topology can be seen. With "\-\-no-2nd" or "\-2" a dot cluster is not formed around primary and secondary addresses from the same device. .br .IP "\fBaggregation\fP|\fBag\fP [\fB1\fP|\fB0\fP]" If no parameter is given the current aggregation setting is displayed. Otherwise the parameter is used to enable or disable packet aggregation. .br .IP "\fBping\fP|\fBp\fP [\fB\-c \fP\fIcount\fP][\fB\-i \fP\fIinterval\fP][\fB\-t \fP\fItime\fP] \fIMAC_address\fP|\fIbat\-host_name\fP" Layer 2 ping of a MAC address or bat\-host name. batctl will try to find the bat\-host name if the given parameter was not a MAC address. The "\-c" option tells batctl how man pings should be sent before the program exits. Without the "\-c" option batctl will continue pinging without end. Use CTRL + C to stop it. With "\-i" and "\-t" you can set the default interval between pings and the timeout time for replies, both in seconds. .br .IP "\fBtraceroute\fP|\fBtr\fP [\fB\-n\fP] \fIMAC_address\fP|\fIbat\-host_name\fP" Layer 2 traceroute to a MAC address or bat\-host name. batctl will try to find the bat\-host name if the given parameter was not a MAC address. batctl will send 3 packets to each host and display the response time. If "\-n" is given batctl will not replace the MAC addresses with bat\-host names in the output. .br .IP "\fBtcpdump\fP|\fBtd\fP [\fB\-p \fP\fIfilter\fP][\fB\-n\fP] \fIinterface ...\fP" batctl will display all packets that are seen on the given interface(s). The "\-p" options allows the filtering of certain packet types: 1 - batman ogm packets, 2 - batman icmp packets, 4 - unicast packets, 8 - broadcast packets, 16 - vis packets, and 32 - none batman packets. These numbers can be added to filter more than one packet type, e.g. use "\-p 3" to display batman ogm packets and batman icmp packets only. If "\-n" is given batctl will not replace the MAC addresses with bat\-host names in the output. .br .IP "\fBbisect\fP [\fB\-l \fP\fIMAC\fP][\fB\-t \fP\fIMAC\fP][\fB\-r \fP\fIMAC\fP][\fB\-s \fP\fImin\fP [\fB\- \fP\fImax\fP]][\fB\-o \fP\fIMAC\fP][\fB\-n\fP] \fIlogfile1\fP [\fIlogfile2\fP ... \fIlogfileN\fP]" Analyses the logfiles to build a small internal database of all sent sequence numbers and routing table changes. This database can then be analyzed in a number of different ways. With "\-l" the database can be used to search for routing loops. Use "\-t" to trace OGMs of a host throughout the network. Use "\-r" to display routing tables of the nodes. The option "\-s" can be used to limit the output to a range of sequence numbers, between min and max, or to one specific sequence number, min. Furthermore using "\-o" you can filter the output to a specified originator. If "\-n" is given batctl will not replace the MAC addresses with bat\-host names in the output. .br .SH FILES .TP .I "\fBbat-hosts\fP" This file is similar to the /etc/hosts file. You can write one MAC address and one host name per line. batctl will search for bat-hosts in /etc, your home directory and the current directory. The found data is used to match MAC address to your provided host name or replace MAC addresses in debug output and logs. Host names are much easier to remember than MAC addresses. .SH SEE ALSO .BR ping (1), .BR traceroute (1), .BR tcpdump (1), .BR dmesg (1), .BR dot (1) .SH AUTHOR batctl was written by Andreas Langer <a.langer@q-dsl.de> and Marek Lindner <lindner_marek@yahoo.de>. .PP This manual page was written by Simon Wunderlich <siwu@hrz.tu-chemnitz.de>, Marek Lindner <lindner_marek@yahoo.de> and Andrew Lunn <andrew@lunn.ch> ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 14+ messages in thread

By the way, batctl vis still has "-h" as an option which does not show the help output. This is rather unusual. Do you mind choosing another letter ? I asked that before but maybe it got lost in the stream of mails. :) Regards, Marek ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 14+ messages in thread
