MAC addresses
|
|
|
|
|
=============
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Many devices don't have enough unique MAC addresses assigned by the vendor
|
|
|
|
|
(in batman-adv, each mesh interface needs an own MAC address that must be unique
|
|
|
|
|
mesh-wide).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Gluon tries to solve this issue by using a hash of the primary MAC address as a
|
|
|
|
|
45 bit MAC address prefix. The resulting 8 addresses are used as follows:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* 0: client0; WAN
|
|
|
|
|
* 1: mesh0

|
* 2: (unused)

|
|
|
* 3: wan_radio0 (private WLAN); batman-adv primary address
|
|
|
|
|
* 4: client1; LAN
|
|
|
|
|
* 5: mesh1

* 7: wan_radio1 (private WLAN); mesh VPN
