Ad-hoc On-demand Distance Vector Routing
-For real world and simulation
Implementation Features:
- Runs on Linux 2.4 and 2.6 kernels and in the ns-2 simulator.
- Crosscompiling for ARM/Mips based devices like the iPAQ, Zaurus and WRT54G router is supported.
- RFC3561 compliant
- Implemented as a user-space daemon with kernel component.
- Optional feature such as unidirectional link detection and avoidance (not specified in draft).
- (Multiple) Gateway support through tunneling.
