Some of these question/answers are from the OLSRd site.
4.1. | If OLSRd fully RFC3626 compliant? |
Yes. It even has implemented some of the extra functionality mentioned in the RFC. See the RFC Compliance section for complete list. | |
4.2. | Can I mix site-local and global IPv6 addresses? |
Yes. But keep in mind that they intentionally were not designed to be used at the same time. The network topology can be quite “messy” if you start using these two. | |
4.3. | The GUI front-end failed to compile...why? |
You probably don't have the GTK2.0 development libraries installed. | |
4.4. | If there is multiply gateways present, how does the mobile node conclude to use the nearest one? |
When a new gateway is detected, the Mobile Node checks the distance (number of hops) to this newly discovered gateway compared to the current gateway. If there is a shorter distance, this new gateway becomes the current (default) gateway. See section 12.6.2 in the OLSR RFC (RFC3626) | |
4.5. | I get OLSRd up and running - but the nodes don't seem to “hear” each other! |
Most of the time this is a configuration error: Check the following:
