## Installing
Run `make install` to install naxalnet.
Run `sudo make install` to install naxalnet.
This will install the naxalnet interface
in `/usr/{bin,share/naxalnet,lib/systemd/system}`.
Enable the naxalnet service on the device `wlan0`:
To install in /usr/local instead, use `sudo make install PREFIX=/usr/local`.
Now enable the naxalnet service on the device `wlan0` (iwd replaces interface
names like wlp1s0 with wlan0):
```
sudo systemctl enable naxalnet@wlan0.service
```
Now naxalnet will configure a batman interface on every boot.
## Uninstalling
Currently there is now way to uninstall naxalnet than to manually removing
the files.
## TODO
- add support for wireless ap (WiFi hotspot)
