Batman-adv 2019.4 released

Added by Sven Eckelmann about 5 years ago

Oct 25th, 2019. Today the B.A.T.M.A.N. team publishes the October 2019 update to batman-adv, batctl and alfred! The B.A.T.M.A.N. V implementation can now aggregate OGM2 messages into single messages before sending them out. As usual, this release also contains various bugfixes and code cleanups.

As the kernel module always depends on the Linux kernel it is compiled against, it does not make sense to provide binaries on our website. As usual, you will find the signed tarballs in our download section:
