Hi,

is there a way to get the mac address of the station that sent the bat_packet? We want to get hold of parameters such as signal strength. We could do this by using the radiotap header, or by looking at the iw station dump of a neighbour. The second option requires the use of the mac address.

Hm? What is a bat_packet? And the sender is encoded in the ethernet mac header before any batman-adv header fields.

Ok, next time please write that you are speaking about batmand. But it is still the same. The mac is part of the ethernet mac header at the beginning of the frame.

Kind regards, Sven
