Dynamic routing about ensichat

[deavmi]

Just thought of something. Wireless networks do not actually do dynamic routing, as it's all magnetism. Which means it's a hub to all nodes.

[deavmi]

Oh wait that's only a ring network, sorry.

Dynamic routing would be needed. Especially for #33

The Serval project is similar to what you're proposing. But it's pretty complex and requires more system resources.

[deavmi]

Yeah that is true.

I just think dynamic routing would lead to obviously factually proven less network traffic.

[deavmi]

Use the batman-adv approach where setting aup a route is done on the fly, letting each node along the route calculate the path (something like that).

[deavmi]

As compared to what olsrd does where it calculates the route path and then sends the packets.

I forgot why the first mentioned one is better, but trust me it is.

I've already researched this a bit, and AODVv2 seems like a good option, because it's optimized for mobile devices. However, the draft is around 70 pages, and there are more important things to implement right now.

[deavmi]

Okay. :) Well, it sounds good

[deavmi]

Wow. Did you get dynamic routing implemented?

[Nutomic]

Yes :)
