[Babel-users] HEADS UP: Babel port changed to 6696

[Juliusz Chroboczek]

Dear all,

For reasons best left for future generations of historians to work out
on their own, the IANA-allocated port for the Babel routing protocol has
been changed to

  babel 6696/UDP      # Babel Routing Protocol

The previously assigned port, 6697, is now listed as unassigned.  AFAIK,
it is reserved for IRC over TLS.

I'm going to release a new version of babeld that uses 6696 by default
this afternoon.  You will still be able to use the "-p" command-line
flag in order to use the old port.
