Summary : B.A.T.M.A.N. advanced control and management tool

License : GPLv2
Description : batctl offers a convenient way to configure the batman-adv kernel module
: as well as displaying debug information such as originator tables,
: translation tables and the debug log. In combination with a bat-hosts
: file batctl allows the use of host names instead of MAC addresses.
:
: B.A.T.M.A.N. advanced operates on layer 2. Thus all hosts participating
: in the virtual switched network are transparently connected together
: for all protocols above layer 2. Therefore the common diagnosis tools
: do not work as expected. To overcome these problems batctl contains the
: commands ping, traceroute, tcpdump which provide similar functionality
: to the normal ping(1), traceroute(1), tcpdump(1) commands, but modified
: to layer 2 behavior or using the B.A.T.M.A.N. advanced protocol.
