commit d6bd8b36fa1f3d72a6fd5942a6e9bde6ddafcd0d Author: Antonio Quartulli ordex@autistici.org Date: Thu May 9 09:35:45 2013 +0200
batman-adv: make DAT drop ARP requests targeting local clients
In the outgoing ARP request snooping routine in DAT, ARP Request sent by local clients which are supposed to be replied by other local clients can be silently dropped.
The destination host will reply by itself through the LAN and therefore there is no need to involve DAT.
