FPAC AX25 packet application is using Linux kernel ROSE routing skills in order to connect or send packets to remote stations knowing their ROSE address via a network of interconnected nodes. Each FPAC node has a ROSE routing table that Linux ROSE module is looking at each time a ROSE frame is relayed by the node or when a connect request to a neighbor node is received. A previous patch improved the system time response by looking at already established routes each time the system was looking for a route to relay a frame. If a neighbor node routing the destination address was already connected, then the frame would be sent through him. If not, a connection request would be issued. The present patch extends the same routing capability to a connect request asked by a user locally connected into an FPAC node. Without this patch, a connect request was not well handled unless it was directed to an immediate connected neighbor of the local node. Implemented at a number of ROSE FPAC node stations, the present patch improved dramatically FPAC ROSE routing time response and efficiency.
