By the way, I couldn't get GlobalRouting to work correctly if I used
BridgeHelper to set up a switch. Connecting all nodes to a shared csma
channel worked all right, but if I used bridge in between, only the
routes behind the first link got distributed to other networks. Routes
behind second, third, ... links didn't get into the first one or each
other. (See my comments at end of
http://www.nsnam.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=614
). Any idea why this happens?
