[PATCH] iw: Add support of setting non-forwarding entity in Mesh

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

 



This patch creates a new mesh parameter known as mesh_fwding. Mesh node will become
non-forwarding entity if this parameter is set to 0. By default, it is set as 1.
