ich denk ich kriegt z.B. mal alle "martin" router, wenn ich ihn danach frag,
und babel die router nicht zum crashen bringen wird,..

problemetischer ist es wohl ipv6 in die fff zu kriegen, oder eben ein babel
ohne ipv6 requirement

p.s. die tunnel kosten natürlich wieder ein eck ram und cpu, aber wird sich
schon ausgehen da ja wenig traffic über sie drübergehen wird,..

und wenn die ersten babel-netzchen gut laufen, denk ich danns recht schnell
basieren, das babel auf 2/3++ der router in wien läuft,.. denn olsr performt
mom ja recht weak,..
