When a mesh path timeouts it is marked accordingly and it is no longer valid for routing. In a continuous traffic scenario this means that every five seconds, the route are refreshed. Actually we start refreshing one second before the route expires, so that we have a fresh path before the current one times out. Mesh path timeout does not _remove_ the path from the mesh path table, so you will see it for a while, the table cleanup function which removes from the table paths that have expired long ago has a separate timing. -- Luis Carlos Cobo Rus GnuPG ID: 44019B60 cozybit Inc. _______________________________________________ ath5k-devel mailing list ath5k-devel@lists.ath5k.org https://lists.ath5k.org/mailman/listinfo/ath5k-devel
