Alfred fails to open interface #1

Open msaiducar opened 5 years ago

msaiducar commented 5 years ago

I followed the Option 1 in Batman Adv and Batctl page, however I couldn't able to run either alfred or batadv-vis. I only didn't execute the line batctl gw_mode client which says optional. I used 3 Raspberry Pi3 to build network, and I didn't get any error. I got the following output when I execute sudo batctl o command.

pi@raspberrypi:~ $ sudo batctl o
[B.A.T.M.A.N. adv 2018.4, MainIF/MAC: wlan0/b8:27:eb:1d:0a:57 (bat0/d6:bf:c9:ff:0c:42 BATMAN_IV)]

   b8:27:eb:43:f7:26    0.560s   ( 68) b8:27:eb:43:f7:26 [wlan0]

But, when I execute the following commands, it fails. What am I missing?

pi@raspberrypi:~ $ sudo batadv-vis -i bat0 -s
can't connect to unix socket: Connection refused  
pi@raspberrypi:~ $ sudo alfred -i bat0 -m -p 1 &
can't bind: Cannot assign requested address
Failed to open interfaces

This is the output of network interfaces,

hello @msaiducar

I read somewhere that the iplink.local address and the mac address have to match: https://lists.open-mesh.org/pipermail/b.a.t.m.a.n/2016-May/015169.html

So try to give the bat0 interface a link local address which is matching the mac interface. (There are special calculation rules for that.)

I set the ipv6 link local address in the startup script of Option 3.

# set IPv6 link-local adress
# help link: https://ben.akrin.com/?p=1347
ip -6 addr add fe80::ba27:ebff:fe77:3d38/64 dev bat0

It seems that the ben.akrin page is down. So instead i just found a new one which has a form at the button to calculate automatically: http://www.sput.nl/internet/ipv6/ll-mac.html

Does this work for you then?
