802.11s mode without HWMP

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

I would be interested in running the 802.11s mode of the linux wifi
stack without the mesh switching protocol.

802.11s with its 6-address frame format could be a great improvement
over IBSS mode because it allows to attach the local wifi card to a
bridge. We are using Layer-3 routing for establishing the mesh, so
HWMP would just interfere with out usecase.

Is there an easy way to stop HWMP in the 802.11s implementation? This
would restrict unicast and multicast communication to just direct
connections like IBSS mode.
