IMHO: EFF doesn't yet grok the importance of pushing out good routing protocols to the edge, and the need for mesh networking the edge together in the advent of emergency... or adversity. CeroWrt include every mesh networking protocol available - olsr, batman, and babel, for starters. The default is babel in it's source specific variant, and it's on by default. Tinq is also in there as an optional package, and recently RTT based metrics were added to babel to make meshing over vpns saner. I'm not sure what you mean by "secure mesh networking"? One of the cool features (not in the current cerowrt release) of the quagga-babeld protocol implementation was the ability to securely exchange routes over an insecure medium, which not only has an implementation but is an official RFC. http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7298 http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7298 I am under the impression commotion-wireless is doing something similar. If we are ever to replace BGP we need to start somewhere...
