Just to be clear here, when you say "hnetd configuration" you are 
referring to babeld.conf that gets installed when you install hnetd-full? 
So it's really the babel configuraton that you get when installing hnetd?

Because as far as I understand, hnetd doesn't do any redistribution into 
the routing protocol, this is done by configuring the routing protocol to 
look at interface addresses/prefix and communicating this to other 
participants in the routing protocol?

hnetd does address configuration on interfaces, the routing protocol 
picks this up because that's how it's configured...? Hnetd doesn't 
communicate directly with the routing protocol at all, right? It just sets 
up the landscape so the routing protocol can come and survey it and 
communicate the contents.
