Re: [B.A.T.M.A.N.] Bridging multiple mesh segments across WAN

I would like to join up the separate mesh segments, via the site network, such that a client to one segment can ping a client of another network, having the traffic transparently tunnel via the WAN. Has anyone looked at doing this in the past?

I've successfully added tap interfaces into bat0, with openvpn connecting the sites in a ring, with no problems. It took a little while to get the MTU's right as each layer has its own overhead, but it worked great and clients in one state acted as if they were on the same switched network as clients in the other.

I can dig up some example configs if it's useful to you or the group.

Thanks,
