Dear Sven,
I would like to ask generic system and topology questions:
1-)Generic System Question According to info at the "https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/networking/batman-adv.txt" (referred from the troubleshooting page) , if following "batman-adv" folder do not exist, your interface might not be supported. -->"/sys/class/net/eth0/batman_adv/"
If that folder does NOT exist in a system but interfaces can be add/removed via "batctl if" command, and outputs indicates interface active, can we consider this system works properly?
2-)Generic Topology Question Consider multiple batman nodes, each have 1 bridge interface, bridge have two ports, one "bat0" and "eth0", and IP is assigned to the bridge port. At each node, multiple wired/wireless interfaces are assigned to "bat0" which have stable connections to other nodes bat0 interfaces. These interfaces are indicated as "active" via batctl. Can local process of batman nodes and external non-batman nodes connected to "eth0" port of the bridge, have IP connectivity to each other via IP addresses assigned to bridges?
best regards MuDe
