12          B.A.T.M.A.N. (better approach to mobile ad-hoc networking) is
13          a routing protocol for multi-hop ad-hoc mesh networks. The
14          networks may be wired or wireless. See
15          http://www.open-mesh.org/ for more information and user space
16          tools.

18config BATMAN_ADV_BLA
19	bool "Bridge Loop Avoidance"
20	depends on BATMAN_ADV && INET
21	default y
22	help
23	  This option enables BLA (Bridge Loop Avoidance), a mechanism
24	  to avoid Ethernet frames looping when mesh nodes are connected
25	  to both the same LAN and the same mesh. If you will never use
26	  more than one mesh node in the same LAN, you can safely remove
27	  this feature and save some space.

29config BATMAN_ADV_DAT
30	bool "Distributed ARP Table"
31	depends on BATMAN_ADV && INET
32	default n
33	help
34	  This option enables DAT (Distributed ARP Table), a DHT based
35	  mechanism that increases ARP reliability on sparse wireless
36	  mesh networks. If you think that your network does not need
37	  this option you can safely remove it and save some space.
38
39config BATMAN_ADV_NC
40	bool "Network Coding"
41	depends on BATMAN_ADV
42	default n
43	help
44	  This option enables network coding, a mechanism that aims to
45	  increase the overall network throughput by fusing multiple
46	  packets in one transmission.
47	  Note that interfaces controlled by batman-adv must be manually
48	  configured to have promiscuous mode enabled in order to make
49	  network coding work.
50	  If you think that your network does not need this feature you
51	  can safely disable it and save some space.
52
53config BATMAN_ADV_MCAST
54	bool "Multicast optimisation"
55	depends on BATMAN_ADV
56	default n
57	help
58	  This option enables the multicast optimisation which aims to
59	  reduce the air overhead while improving the reliability of
60	  multicast messages.
61
62config BATMAN_ADV_DEBUG
63	bool "B.A.T.M.A.N. debugging"
64	depends on BATMAN_ADV
65	depends on DEBUG_FS
66	help
67	  This is an option for use by developers; most people should
68	  say N here. This enables compilation of support for
69	  outputting debugging information to the kernel log. The
70	  output is controlled via the module parameter debug.
