Hello list,
I am trying to get some DTN routing working in the lab. My question is: Does IBR-DTN insert any routes into the kernel routing table? After neighbor discovery, how does dtnd store the neighbor info? Do I need to run OLSR or similar adhoc routing protocols along with dtnd? I know for sure that OLSRd for OpenWRT inserts some routes into the kernel.
I ask because I am afraid that dtnd relies on the kernel routes to send a packet down the stack (which may contain a route to the desired DTN destination node via a long route through other neighbors - this may result in the packet going on a longer route instead of the source node waiting till the destination comes within range).
