From: Antonio Quartulli Date: Thu, 9 May 2013 07:35:45 +0000 (+0200) Subject: batman-adv: make DAT drop ARP requests targeting local clients X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=88e48d7b3340ef07b108eb8a8b3813dd093cc7f7;p=GitHub%2Fexynos8895%2Fandroid_kernel_samsung_universal8895.git batman-adv: make DAT drop ARP requests targeting local clients In the outgoing ARP request snooping routine in DAT, ARP Request sent by local clients which are supposed to be replied by other local clients can be silently dropped. The destination host will reply by itself through the LAN and therefore there is no need to involve DAT.
