-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora EPEL Update Notification FEDORA-EPEL-2018-e3d34f9bd1 2018-01-23 19:59:59.974228 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Name : batctl Product : Fedora EPEL 7 Version : 2017.4 Release : 1.el7 URL : http://www.open-mesh.org/ Summary : B.A.T.M.A.N. advanced control and management tool Description : batctl offers a convenient way to configure the batman-adv kernel module as well as displaying debug information such as originator tables, translation tables and the debug log. In combination with a bat-hosts file batctl allows the use of host names instead of MAC addresses.

B.A.T.M.A.N. advanced operates on layer 2. Thus all hosts participating in the virtual switched network are transparently connected together for all protocols above layer 2. Therefore the common diagnosis tools do not work as expected. To overcome these problems batctl contains the commands ping, traceroute, tcpdump which provide similar functionality to the normal ping(1), traceroute(1), tcpdump(1) commands, but modified to layer 2 behavior or using the B.A.T.M.A.N. advanced protocol.
