[PATCH 3/8] mac80211: Simulate transmission losses on plinks to aid in testing mesh metrics.

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

 



This enables us to specify a simulated loss probability per mesh peer link.
Useful to simulate and test different mesh topologies and test different mesh
metrics.

The simulated loss rate setting can be configured as a plink action.  The
intended use is:

iw dev mesh station set <MAC> plink_action loss 25
