Each node has a macvlan called 'gateway0' which has the IP 192.168.0.1/32 This is just an IP which every DHCP-Client gets for "default-gateway". (so the gateway is the node itself and not the internet-offering-node). This looks like this:
root@node222hybrid:~ ip address show dev gateway0 15: gateway0@br-mybridge: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN group default link/ether 02:00:c0:ca:c0:1a brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
if this mac (02:00:c0:ca:c0:1a) exists on several different nodes that are not connected by a real ethernet backbone (and BLA2 enabled) then batman goes mushroom tripping, since it 'sees' that MAC as a non-mesh-client that is everywhere at the same time, and tries to roam it around, creating funny symptoms (like DUPs and such)
BINGO! thank you Gui - if i read the old mails, i can even see it i the transglobal table. if i look into the mesh, it pop's up on random nodes with random originators. yes: mushroom tripping 8-)
i will try the ebtables approach, but i dont like it. IMHO it's more elegant to just 'ignore' this mac by the daemon itself:
To the devs: is this possible?
