A line beginning with ' or . in a groff file has a special meaning and
cannot be used for literal text. Instead the interpreter will try to
execute it and fail doing so. A zero-width space or reformatting the
paragraph can be used as simple workaround.

If no parameter is given the current gateway mode is displayed otherwise the parameter is used to set the gateway mode. The
second (optional) argument specifies the selection class (if 'client' was the first argument) or the gateway bandwidth (if

==========================================================
Announcing the Wireless Battle Mesh v6
(15th of April - 21st of April 2013, Aalborg, Denmark)
==========================================================
The next 'Wireless Battle of the Mesh' will take place from
Mon 15th till Sun 21st of April at the University of Aalborg,
Denmark. The event aims to bring together people from across
the globe to test the performance of different routing
protocols for ad-hoc networks, like Babel, B.A.T.M.A.N., BMX,
OLSR, and 802.11s. Of course, new protocols (working on
OpenWRT) are always welcome!
It is not required to be active within the mentioned
protocols, so if you are a mesh networking enthusiast,
community networking activist, or have an interest in mesh
networks in general, you have to check this out!
Information about the event is gathered at:
http://battlemesh.org/BattleMeshV6
Location
========
The event takes place at the University of Aalborg, Denmark.
There will be room for hacking with software and hardware,
talks and presentations, as well as informal discussions
between participants.
Participant Registration and Fee
================================
The event itself is free of charge and open for all, so to
register without hotel and food supply, simply add your name
to the participant table.
http://battlemesh.org/BattleMeshV6/Participants
If you wish low cost cost accomodation and low cost food supply,
several special group bookings have been arranged. Payment
in advance is required to get the full benefit of the
discount. Therefore, this year's edition features an "early
bird low cost" registration program: A bed in a nearby hotel
from Monday till Sunday plus breakfast and dinner for the
entire week are available for 1500 DKK (~201€) if the
payment is made before February 15th, 2013. The price goes
up to 1900 DKK (~255€) for all payments made after February
15th. These late arrangements are subject to availability.
Of course, this package is not compulsory. You can also
find your own bed and food supply yourself during the event
if you wish to do so.
Credit card payments for accomodation and food can be carried
out here: https://www.erap.aau.dk/event/index.php/bmv6
Warm Up
=======
As with Wireless BattleMesh V5 in Athens, we would like to
arrange a warm up event in the preceeding weekend. So far, we
have explored options like Djurslands Net and Net4Samsø, but
nothing is final yet. Suggestions and ideas for this is more
than welcome!
Spread the Word
===============
Feel free to spread the word by forwarding this mail to all
lists / people that might be interested in it. Blogging
about the event is more than welcome, and if you do so,
please add a ping-back to the wiki page:

If you believe batman-adv is the culprit, please remove batman-adv from your
test setup and repeat the exact same test. Otherwise we move into the realm of
speculation.
Haven't heard of any "peak loss" due to batman-adv.

Hello folks,
we spent some effort in measuring the stability on our freifunk-network.
The networt itself consists of two networks.
- Tinc-VPN, batman-adv 2011.2.0
- fastd-VPN, batman-adv 2012.4.0
The fastd-network has two gateways (kif and fastd3) and two nodes. Each node is connected to both gateways. (Example output of batctl o see below)
Please take a look at:
http://kbu.freifunk.net/index.php?title=Statistik#Ping_innerhalb_des_Freifu…
While the first chart shows the stability of a node connected directly via tincy, the later ones use fastd.
- Chart 2 shows kif -> node1
- Chart 3 shows fastd3 -> node1
- Chart 4 shows kif -> node2
We noticed a few, unusual things:
-> regardless of the link tested (kif or fastd3) and regardless of the node (node1, node2) small interruptions (loss-peaks) are appearing.
-> These peaks appear almost synchronous, a few "noise" comes from different vpn-links and node-wan-uplinks.
-> Since all links are wired, radio-noise won't have an impact
-> The losses appear in batman-adv 2011.2.0 as well as in batman-adv 2012.4.0.
Thus I suspect that batman-adv is triggering theses interruptions.
Have you notice same problems in past? Is there a way to fix these outages?
Thanks,
Keep smiling
