  12          B.A.T.M.A.N. (better approach to mobile ad-hoc networking) is
  13          a routing protocol for multi-hop ad-hoc mesh networks. The
  14          networks may be wired or wireless. See
  15          https://www.open-mesh.org/ for more information and user space
  16          tools.

  18config BATMAN_ADV_BATMAN_V
  19        bool "B.A.T.M.A.N. V protocol (experimental)"
  20        depends on BATMAN_ADV && CFG80211=y || (CFG80211=m && BATMAN_ADV=m)
  21        default n
  22        help
  23          This option enables the B.A.T.M.A.N. V protocol, the successor
  24          of the currently used B.A.T.M.A.N. IV protocol. The main
  25          changes include splitting of the OGM protocol into a neighbor
  26          discovery protocol (Echo Location Protocol, ELP) and a new OGM
  27          Protocol OGMv2 for flooding protocol information through the
  28          network, as well as a throughput based metric.
  29          B.A.T.M.A.N. V is currently considered experimental and not
  30          compatible to B.A.T.M.A.N. IV networks.

  32config BATMAN_ADV_BLA
  33        bool "Bridge Loop Avoidance"
  34        depends on BATMAN_ADV && INET
  35        default y
  36        help
  37          This option enables BLA (Bridge Loop Avoidance), a mechanism
  38          to avoid Ethernet frames looping when mesh nodes are connected
  39          to both the same LAN and the same mesh. If you will never use
  40          more than one mesh node in the same LAN, you can safely remove
  41          this feature and save some space.

  43config BATMAN_ADV_DAT
  44        bool "Distributed ARP Table"
  45        depends on BATMAN_ADV && INET
  46        default n
  47        help
  48          This option enables DAT (Distributed ARP Table), a DHT based
  49          mechanism that increases ARP reliability on sparse wireless
  50          mesh networks. If you think that your network does not need
  51          this option you can safely remove it and save some space.
  52
  53config BATMAN_ADV_NC
  54        bool "Network Coding"
  55        depends on BATMAN_ADV
  56        default n
  57        help
  58          This option enables network coding, a mechanism that aims to
  59          increase the overall network throughput by fusing multiple
  60          packets in one transmission.
  61          Note that interfaces controlled by batman-adv must be manually
  62          configured to have promiscuous mode enabled in order to make
  63          network coding work.
  64          If you think that your network does not need this feature you
  65          can safely disable it and save some space.

  67config BATMAN_ADV_MCAST
  68        bool "Multicast optimisation"
  69        depends on BATMAN_ADV
  70        default n
  71        help
  72          This option enables the multicast optimisation which aims to
  73          reduce the air overhead while improving the reliability of
  74          multicast messages.
  75
  76config BATMAN_ADV_DEBUG
  77        bool "B.A.T.M.A.N. debugging"
  78        depends on BATMAN_ADV
  79        depends on DEBUG_FS
  80        help
  81          This is an option for use by developers; most people should
  82          say N here. This enables compilation of support for
  83          outputting debugging information to the kernel log. The
  84          output is controlled via the module parameter debug.
