Check out OLSR.
You can set up HNA announcements for 0.0.0.0 on gateway nodes.

Cheers.

Hi all:<br>
<br>
I&#39;m working on a mesh network project in Eastern WA, and had some<br>
questions regarding the routing system you use. =A0As best as I can<br>
gather, a mesh network loosely managed such as yours (loosely =3D=3D no<br>
one person running all nodes on the network) would need a mesh routing<br>
system, and more importantly for Internet-connected meshes such as<br>
SWN, ways to route to Internet tunnels.<br>
<br>
So, I was wondering how does one set up:<br>
<br>
1) a member mesh node that does NOT have its own local Internet<br>
network;<br>
2) a member mesh node that does have local Internet connection and<br>
wishes to share it<br>
<br>
Not looking so much on a step-by-step detail, but on what protocols<br>
you use, how you do Internet tunnel announcement/routing, how routing<br>
between mesh members work, etc.<br>
<br>
My network is a little different, in that its a ham radio network on<br>
802.11* networks. =A0I&#39;m trying to set it up so that it will be able to=
<br>
go long distances (with multiple hops), allow intermediate nodes to<br>
pass traffic between destinations on the network, and also provide<br>
gateway opportunities to the Internet provided by nodes with local<br>
Internet connectivity. =A0Seattle Wireless Project, from what I<br>
understand, is already doing this. =A0Also from what I understand,<br>
default firmwares will not do the job; I&#39;m just not sure what you<br>
needed to do to OpenWRT or similar to make it participate in the<br>
network fully.<br>
<br>
Thanks!<br>
