Emulating Huge Mesh Routing Networks

Playlists: 'rc3' videos starting here / audio

A year ago I set out to test various existing mesh routing protocols on different topologies. Especially emulating huge networks are tempting, since real hardware for this is too expensive (for me). I present the story, the projects [1] and my findings while testing emulated mesh networks of up to 2000 nodes.

Protocol implementations tested:

* Babel
* batman-adv
* BMX6
* BMX7
* CJDNS
* OLSRd
* OLSR2
* OSPF
