[manet] Looking for an RA-OLSR normative reference



Hello,

I am one of the XORP developers: http://www.xorp.org/

I am currently performing initial requirements analysis for an RFC-compliant implementation of the OLSRv1 routing protocol as part of the XORP router architecture.

I have noted that the 802.11s TG are investigating the use of OLSR as a link-state protocol for MP-to-MP forwarding in 802.11s ESS Mesh networks, as 'RA-OLSR', and would like to investigate the feasibility of making the XORP implementation capable of performing RA-OLSR routing functions at a later date; focusing on IPv4/IPv6 unicast forwarding initially, with route redistribution capabilities between MANET domains and existing 'Big-I' Internet routing domains (BGP, IS-IS).

Whilst I can see some of the comments in the 802.11s ratification process on the IEEE web sites, I have not yet found anything resembling a draft specification for how RA-OLSR is transmitted on the wire, or how it is derived from the existing specification of OLSR.

Many thanks for any help you can provide.

Kind regards
BMS
