Hi all,
I'm getting ready to install a BATMAN based MESH node (10dBM omni) in a housing estate connected via a 2KM transparent bridge 5Ghz wireless link to the data centre.
Is it OK to have my base station(s) MESH openwrt boards have BATMAN running on two interfaces? the Ethernet NIC (to bridge) - & WIFI omni.
The reason I'm asking is that I'd like the base station(s) to find their last hop to be the datacentre server (running BATMAN).
I want to keep the Internet NATing in one place (datacentre gateway server) - this would ensure I'd have no problem with flapping routes once I have multiple base stations up.
Does this sound ok to you? Its the BATMAN on two interfaces thing I'm concerned about - will it work I wonder?
thanks for any info
Derek
