[Commotion-dev] dynamic runtime config of olsrd

[Ben West]

In my practice, I've only just restarted the olsrd daemon after changing
olsrd.conf and let a minute or so transpire while it rebuilds the routing
table.

The disruption of any actively routed traffic wasn't that long (e.g. a
minute or less), and I think it would only be noticeable on continuous TCP
streams (aka streaming media) and maybe SSH sessions.

Also, you could try manually setting a default route with a higher metric
(aka lower priority) as a fallback for the period while olsrd restarts.
