Hello, I tried to configure the vis server. All is ok but i can't see the mesh network with the tool s3d (i installed the last version). I try to test batmand. Is there a bug ? Is there an another graphics server to see the global mesh ?
Thank's for your answer.
Michael.
Hi Michael,
Hello, I tried to configure the vis server. All is ok but i can't see the mesh network with the tool s3d (i installed the last version). I try to test batmand.
batmand is still officially maintained, although there is no development going on anymore. For the vis server of (layer 3) batmand, this software is not maintained anymore. You could consider switching to batman-adv + alfred + batadv-vis.
Also please note that you need the tool meshs3d running along with s3d. s3d is just a 3d display server, like for example your X server. You need an application to feed graphical data.
Is there a bug ?
We can't exclude or confirm that from your report.
Is there an another graphics server to see the global mesh ?
Since the various vis versions all output graphviz data, you can also use graphviz tools like dot or circo to print 2d maps of your mesh. That won't be that pretty though, I'm afraid. :)

Hello, 1) I can't creat the 2 files: cat /sys/kernel/debug/batman_adv/bat0/log echo 2 > /sys/class/net/bat0/mesh/log_level
then when i write this line, i have the result: sudo batctl log Error - can't open file '/sys/kernel/debug//batman_adv/bat0/log': No such file or directory To read the debug log you need to compile the module with debugging enabled (see the README)
WWW@ubuntu:~$ sudo batctl ll Error - can't open file '/sys/class/net/bat0/mesh/log_level': No such file or directory To increase the log level you need to compile the module with debugging enabled (see the README)
How can i compile it ?
2) The MTU = 1528 is not need to be set on the computer ?
3) How can i lauch batman-adv in debug mode to see all node ?
thank's for your reply,
Hi,
Hello,
- I can't creat the 2 files:

Read the README, it's documented there.
- The MTU = 1528 is not need to be set on the computer ?
No, batman-adv can also fragment the packets for you. But it's a good idea to set this MTU value to the hard interface used by batman-adv.
- How can i lauch batman-adv in debug mode to see all node ?
There is no such thing as debug mode. Compile batman-adv with debug turned on (either set CONFIG_BATMAN_ADV_DEBUG=y in the Makefile if you compile the module externally or select debug in "make menuconfig" when using the module from the in-kernel tree).
You can "see" other nodes e.g. by using "batctl o", which will print the local originator table.
