Dear guys,
I am new to FreeBSD and to this forum as well. I am doing a project on mesh network (finding optimal paths between nodes)
The aim of the project is to create a robust mesh network against link failures. Inorder to achieve the aim, I have to investigate suitable routing protocols and find the most efficient one, which would self organize against such link failures
In order to investigate routing protocols, I am creating an emulation environment, consists of 6 PCs, all connected to a hub.
each PC has Freebsd installed and got 2 wireless cards. THE FREEBSD WILL ACT AS ROUTER.
I have selected 3 routing protocols for this purpose as follows,
- Ad hoc on-demand distance vector routing protocol (AODV)
- Optimized link state routing protocol (OLSR)
- Dynamic source routing protocol (DSR)
My questions are,
a)can I configure the above routing protocols on freebsd router
b) if so, how can I configure the above routing protocols on freebsd router.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Robert
