There are a few Freifunk communities in Germany running babeld allowing roaming in ipv6 only using host routes. We have been able to break it (100%CPU on nodes) with a very old version while we had 1000 clients. After the fix was implemented we have not been able to break it since.

Hi,

how good does babeld scale? Let's say in an optimal environment with
only 10G fiber links and potent hardware (with openwrt) like this:

https://shop.opnsense.com/product/dec740-opnsense-desktop-security-appliance/

What do you think how well would a dynamic routed environment with
babeld scale?

I'm working on an idea for a community network called pplznet. Every
household is getting its own OpenWrt devices and we build mainly
multiple rings and those rings are interconnted to each other on some
points. Like a mixed ring / mesh topology in order to achieve both
redundancy but the least possible overhead.

Do you think such a network could handle up to 1.000 OpenWrt nodes or
even more?

What real world bitrate would I be able to achieve?

Thank you
