using 'ifconfig -a'
## Setup ad-Hoc network
1. Disable NetworkManager
1. Right-click on NetworkManager applet, un-check "Enable
networking".
2. Fedora:
# /etc/init.d/NetworkManager stop
3. Ubuntu:
# stop network-manager
2. Disable the firewall
1. # iptables -F
3. # ifconfig wlan0 down
4. # iwconfig wlan0 mode ad-hoc essid hacdc-batman channel 8
5. # ifconfig wlan0 up
## Setup BATMAN-Advanced
In the unpacked 'batman-adv' directory:
1. # insmod batman-adv.ko
In the batctl directory:
1. # ./batctl if add wlan0
2. # ifconfig wlan0 mtu 1527
3. # cat /sys/class/net/wlan0/batman_adv/iface_status
Should read "active".
4. # ifconfig wlan0 0.0.0.0
5. # ifconfig bat0 up
6. give bat0 an IP address
1. ifconfig w.x.y.z netmask a.b.c.d up
2. dhcp
3. dhcp6
4. dhclient
5. Avahi/zeroconf
6. IPv6
## Testing BATMAN-Advanced
Display local table of known peers (by MAC address of node):
1. batctl o
Ping by batX MAC address of nodes:
1. batctl p uu:vv:ww:xx:yy:zz
Monitor traffic of batX interface:
1. tcpdump -i bat0 -s 0 -v -X -n
Test connectivity between nodes:
1. ping6 -p DEADBEEF -I bat0 (IPv4 address of host)
2. ping6 -p DEADBEEF -I bat0 (IPv6 address of host)
