Topic: AODV on openwrt

Hi,

I need to get my WRT54G installed and set up with AODV. I know there used to be a third party package for aodv, but now TFM just says that third party modules are not supported.

Does anyone have a package for AODV, or failing that can someone give me some pointers as to how to set it up? Preferably I'd like the kernel-aodv (http://w3.antd.nist.gov/wctg/aodv_kernel/) but I can probably get by with aodv-uu (http://www.docs.uu.se/docs/research/pro … dvuu.shtml).

I've had a look at the documentation on the wiki for creating packages, but both these are kernel modules.

Any help?

Cheers,

Darren.

Cheers for those. I'd tried the nist.gov one before without much luck. I tried again tho', and whilst I couldn't get the latest version to work, I did get the previous version of kernel_aodv to work (2.1).

The latest version (and the aodv-st extension one) both caused my WRT to reboot.

Hopefully this is the first step in getting LocustWorld onto openwrt - http://www.lancastermesh.co.uk/wiki/

Hi,

I had luck in compiling aodv-uu for OpenWrt.
The package is located at:
https://www.comnets.uni-bremen.de/~mab/ … /packages/

Additionally you will need:
kmod-ipt-queue
And it is a good idea to install tcpdump.

insmod ip_queue
insmod kaodv
ifconfig eth2 address 10.11.12.1 netmask 255.255.255.0
aodvd -i eth2 -l -o -D

On a different console:
tcpdump -i eth2

The device eth2 is for Asus Wl-500g.

However until now I only see AODV HELLO messages. I'm suspecting iptable rules.

The discussion might have continued from here.
