Admin: OLSR

Tip1: Offering internet access for others made easy: connect the internet jack of the device to a standard internet router. The internet router will configure the internet interface via DHCP. The internet access will be announced by OLSR/HNA4. Specific firewall rules exists for this service. To realize the internet access, the "dyn_gw_plugin" is activated in the OLSR daemon. The plugin will ensure the connectivity of the internet access with "arping" and will disable the HNA4 announcement accordingly.

Tip2: It is possible to connect a second device with an ethernet line. This is useful if the two devices cannot communicate via WLAN but over the ethernet line. Copy the OLSR IP address to the Ethernet IP setting on the Ethernet page. If the two address settings have the same value, the Ethernet/WLAN bridge is not deleted and the firewall is disable during restart. Setup the second device accordingly but with another OLSR IP address. Attention: Please use only, if no WLAN connection is possible. Otherwise, a feedback effect takes place, where every broadcast packet is circulation in the internal network until TTL is zero!
