Aside hop penalty you can also play with other layer 3 options to manipulate the routing. Some are:
* using cryptography for the nodes while having some nodes connecting only to others with the same password. * using different channels for the nodes you want to follow only specific routes. * specifying which gateway you may want a node or client to be using/exiting * decreasing or increasing signal intensity as per need and per node * defining mcast_rates may also help when defining which route to take based on node rate.
although none of these options are exactly what you are looking for and they are not batman-adv related; they can help out in some scenarios depending on your mesh needs at least until better options are available.

Hi Krishna,
not exactly at the moment. The only way is currently the hop-penalty knob for things like that. But maybe that's sufficient for your use-case?
Cheers, Linus

hi all,
Is there any way to crate a static route in batman-adv algorithm. Like telling other nodes to avoid a certain node.
