or so we understand!
If the ethernet is used for mesh purposes uniquely why do you bother running 
the bridge loop avoidance at all instead of adding the ethernet interface as a 
regular batman interface ? The only reason why you would want the bridge loop 
avoidance is when you have ethernet clients that are bridged into the mesh. 
This does not seem to be the case. As far as I understand the ethernet cable 
is used as reliable "wireless cable".
