NRL has implemented a link-state routing protocol oriented for mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs). NRL OLSR is largely based on the Optimized Link State Routing (OLSR) protocol specification (RFC 3626).
Here are some key features of "NRL OLSR":
Support for IPv6
Operational in Windows, MacOS, Linux, and various embedded PDA systems such as Zaurus and PocketPC.
Full link state topology can be distributed including non-MPR cross links
A "willingness" attribute for localized MPR activation
Support for several MPR selection protocols (Classical flooding, NS-MPR, S-MPR, MPR-CDS, and E-CDS)
Neighbor link quality assessed by a smoothed hysteresis function.
Many run-time parameters available including: HELLO interval, link state update interval, timeout factors, link quality assessment parameters, MPR willingness, and message TOS
Configureable debugging verboseness
Experimental features such as fuzzy-sighted routing and support for Simplified Multicast Forwarding
What's New in This Release:
NS-2 support and various bugfixes.
