*Mobile ad hoc network*

*better approach to mobile adhoc networking*

*B.A.T.M.A.N. (better approach to mobile ad-hoc networking*) is a new
routing
protocol for multi-hop ad-hoc mesh networks.

The approach of the B.A.T.M.A.N algorithm is to divide the knowledge
about the best end-to-end paths between nodes in the mesh to all
participating nodes.
Each node perceives and maintains only the information about the best
next hop towards all other nodes. Thereby the need for a global
knowledge about local topology changes becomes unnecessary.
Additionally, an event-based but timeless
flooding mechanism prevents the accruement of contradicting topology
information and limits the amount of topology messages flooding the
mesh. The algorithm is designed to deal with networks that are based on
unreliable links.

So I don't have any settings I can tweek. I wanted to know if there was some package out there that could do that.
