[Battlemesh] synthetic test results with containers?

[Moritz Warning]

Hi,

has anyone thought about running batman-adv/babel/bmx etc. in containers to simulate mesh networks?

1. create json file that describes a topology along with bandwidth, packet loss etc.
2. create network of containers from that description
3. run different test to test scalability, speed, convergence etc.

So far I have found https://github.com/axn/mlc / https://github.com/aparcar/mlc-ng, but it is not really usable.
Anyway, that way we could make interesting and comparable tests.

Maybe someone here has some lxc skills to create something like that.

Thanks,
