networking networkmanager nmcli ad-hoc-network

                          nmcli proposes a connection type olpc-mesh.

**How does it differ from ad hoc networking and in which situation is this connection type used?** 

From man nmcli:

    type olpc-mesh ssid SSID [channel 1-13] [dhcp-anycast MAC]
    
                   ssid
                       SSID.
    
                   channel
                       channel to use for the network.
    
                   dhcp-anycast
                       anycast DHCP MAC address used when requesting an IP address via DHCP.
