Hi all,
till this thread I believed that babeld could do this change of Internet
Connection. And I "think" I saw this as a feature on the website - and was
one of the points why I started using libremesh.
As I remember there were als mentions of bmx6 and bmx7 so this could be the
reason for this misunderstanding. -> I think it came from here:
https://libremesh.org/howitworks.html
There is still bmx as layer 3 routing protocol...
Maybe the documentation should be changed?
Regards,
Andy

In our case I think at some point we would like to
switch to babel, and I
did not know that this is something not present in babel. I copied the
answer of Ilario to my notes, but keeping it simple: can I have more simple
information to track this issue (which I hope includes all the relevant
details), and then I will subscribe to that issue.
In Barcelona we are running bmx6 since years. A subnetwork of it we are
running a pure bmx6 network based on openwrt, and it is a little bit
unstable (daemon crashes), but works fine. I hope soon we can go for the
latest bmx6 version in the whole network (migrations are painful), because
recently we discovered that openwrt packages was using an old and
memleaked version of bmx6 (!!)

There are multiple reasons. In my opinion the most important is that
the babel
protocol is now an IETF standard. Also important is that babel
the protocol and babeld the implementation are being supported/maintained.
BMX6 development stalled and is not maintained (AFAIK) long time ago and we
had some problems with the implementation so it was difficult "to promote"
it as the default libremesh protocol.
Anyway the idea behind libremesh is that multiple
protocols can be
selected/used, so BMX6 and BMX7 and other protocols are supported
at least
as there are community using them to report bugs and help fix them.

Nice explanation, thank you. I will migrate to Babel once this
Internet-sharing thing is fixed.
