Hi,

We are currently doing research on QoS services provided in MANETs using batman-adv protocol. We want to know are there any similar projects had been done before this in this area.

And does any one have knows is there an alternative in batman-adv for nbar of Cisco.

what does deep packet inspection for traffic type recognition have to do with batman-adv ?

Cheers, Marek

How is your progress? I'm wondering how you are doing the QoS w/ batman-adv.. If this were routed you could use tc or tcng to prioritize DSCP tags, but I don't see that as an option w/ batman-adv.

I'd be really curious about this. I'm exploring batman-adv mesh nodes for extremely dense forested neighborhoods* where my traditional fixed wireless systems can't reach. The catch here is how to handle QoS. With so many potential radios and changing hops I want the radio's queue to prioritize and haven't gotten deep enough into batman-adv to figure out how this might be done.

*looking at mikrotik's rb912 in 5Ghz + R11e-5GacD mini-pcie radios for a single device (running openwrt), two radio node and running the ethernet into the client w/ POE injector. No clients would be on the wireless interfaces, just backhaul.
