Issue:
It is well known that flood adverts are not required for the mesh itself. They are mainly useful for some users to visualise the mesh topology. However, flood adverts may consume a significant portion of the available airtime.
Proposal:
Add an airtime limit for repeating flood adverts as a percentage of the repeater’s overall airtime.
The flood advert airtime limit should be configurable via CLI from 0% to 100% of the overall airtime.
The default value could be 10% of the overall airtime.
Example:
- Overall airtime limit: 10% (within one hour)
- Flood advert limit: 10% of the overall airtime
Result: flood adverts would consume a maximum of 1% of the total airtime within one hour.
