[PATCH] mac80211: Learn about mesh portals from multicast traffic

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

 



Mesh portals proxy traffic for nodes external to the mesh.  When a
proxied frame is received by a mesh interface, it should update its mesh
portal table.  This was only happening for unicast frames.  With this
change we also learn about mesh portals from proxied multicast frames.
