Radio Shortest Path First Description

Radio Shortest Path First (RSPF) is a routing protocol for wireless networks. Radio Shortest Path First (RSPF) is a routing protocol for wireless networks. This particular implementation is written for Linux and conforms to version 2.2 of the protocol specification. There are many reasons why our networks are complicated, but one significant thing is that you can no longer assume that just because you hear one station, then they can hear you. This means you can have a lot of unidirectional routes. The current specification is RSPF version 2.2, written by Fred Goldstein K1IO. Until recently, if people were using RSPF at all, they would of been using RSPF version 2.1, which is available in the NOS program, written by Phil Karn and others. The RSPF code itself in NOS was written by Anders Klements.That's why standard protocols don't work very well over amateur packet radio.Now with the knowledge of how his protocol worked in real life, Fred then updated and improved RSPF to version 2.2. And, until late 1995, that was all that happened.What did happen was that I was in my senior years in my undergraduate degree at University of Technology, Sydney and looking for an interesting Thesis. After seeing emails from Carl Makin VK1KCM asking if anyone was going to fix RSPF in NOS, this gave me my idea for my Thesis.What's New in This Release:· Control port speaks IPv6· Made the ChangeLog prettier· Fixed the checksum code so it works.· Put everything through syslog()· :s/t/ /
