I am not sure how many routing protocols even KNOW the logical name. Olsrd does not... Olsrd2 does not.
from netjson.
@HRogge ok, that's true, but why should a routing protocol be concerned about logical interface names in a DeviceConfiguration
object?
DeviceConfiguration
already has a similar distinction in the radios
section: name
refers to a logical radio name, while phy
refers to a hardware setting.
Let's not forget that the primary goal of DeviceConfiguration
is to configure a device. This setting concerns software like OpenWRT, AirOS, DD-WRT.
For example, I'm using a custom section in DeviceConfiguration
to generate an OLSR2 configuration. For OLSR2 this is completely transparent.
from netjson.
Sorry, didn't saw that it was ONLY for Device Configuration... because interfaces are also interesting for the Network Routes (outgoing interface).
"Logical Interfaces" are something quite restricted to OpenWRT, not sure other Operation Systems use them.
from netjson.
True, logical names are very popular in OpenWRT, I haven't been able to find a lot of information on other systems.
The predictability of interface names has been a problem and is still a problem for many OS, i've found more about it here:
