I used arping, with and without -b , and seemed like i could narrow the problem down to incoming broadcast packet handling, but further tests just left me more puzzled!
Well, seems colmena is the uncooperative bathost another log: http://pastebin.com/FMD9Lieq that can be summarized as follows
### From COLMENA-CASA, can ping bochita but not ana ### From PEREYRA, can ping bochita but not ana ### From COLMENA, works perfect to both destinations
colmena-casa and pereyra must pass through colmena, which is for some reason allowing batctl pings , ogms , and whatnot passthrough in its way to ana, but no ICMP echo requests, or tcp traffic whatsoever if it's final destination is ana. if final destination is bochita, everything works as expected.
Any ideas?
I'm going to delay rebooting colmena as long as i can, in case someone comes up with an insightful test to run :)
