DESCRIPTION
olsrd
is an implementation of the Optimized Link State Routing protocol for
Mobile Ad-Hoc networks(MANET). The protocol is described in RFC3626.
It is designed to be run as a standalone server process - but as it
is still in an experimental stage most users will prefer running it
with some debug output which is directed to STDOUT.
This manual page only lists the command line arguments. For details
of the configuration file see the comments included in
/etc/olsrd.conf.
Note that none of these options need to be set at the command line -
all these options and others can be set in the configuration file.
The homepage of olsrd is
http://www.olsr.org
OPTIONS
- -i interface1 ... interfaceN
-
This option specifies on what network interfaces olsrd should
run. These interfaces cannot be aliased interfaces such as eth0:1.
- -f configfile
-
This option overrides the default configuration file path used
by olsrd -
/etc/olsrd.conf
- -d debuglevel
-
This option specifies the amount of debug information olsrd should write
to STDOUT. If set to 0 olsrd will run in the background.
- -ipv6
-
This option instructs olsrd to use the Internet Protocol version 6. The
default is version 4.
- -ipc
-
This option allows the GUI front-end created fro olsrd to connect to olsrd
at runtime.
- -dispin
-
This option, when set, causes olsrd to display all incoming packet data
on STDOUT. When using IPv4 the data is displayed in decimal format, when using
IPv6 the data is displayed in hexadecimal format.
- -dispout
-
This option, when set, causes olsrd to display all outgoing packet data
on STDOUT. When using IPv4 the data is displayed in decimal format, when using
IPv6 the data is displayed in hexadecimal format.
- -delgw
-
If this option is set olsrd will remove any default routes set prior
to adding an Internet route based on OLSR routing.
- -bcast broadcastaddress
-
This option specifies what IPv4 broadcastaddress to use for OLSR control
traffic. The only value that currently makes sense when setting broadcast
address mannually is
255.255.255.255.
The default action is to use the broadcastaddres that the network interface
is preconfigured with(per interface).
- -hint seconds
-
This value sets the interval on which
HELLO
messages should be generated. The value is a floating point number representing
seconds.
- -tcint seconds
-
This value sets the interval on which
TC
messages should be generated. The value is a floating point number representing
seconds.
- -midint seconds
-
This value sets the interval on which
MID
messages should be generated. The value is a floating point number representing
seconds.
- -hnaint seconds
-
This value sets the interval on which
HNA
messages should be generated. The value is a floating point number representing
seconds.
- -tos TOS-value
-
This option sets the
type of service
value that should be set in the OLSR control traffic packet IP headers.
- -T seconds
-
This option sets the polling intervall of the scheduler. The default is
0.1 seconds. This option should only be considered if running with really low
emission intervals.
