[B.A.T.M.A.N.] robin

[B.A.T.M.A.N.] robin

[a.anselmi]

Hi,

I'm using BATMAN routing algorithm on an kamikaze based firwmare,
realizing ROBIN (Routing Batman Inside) MESH: a 0-config, QoS capable mesh
software which targets Atheros AP51 devices such as Meraki Mini or Fonera.

As soon as flashed, mini-routers act as mesh-network appliances: all you
need is power-on the devices and connect almost one of these to a xDSL
DHCP capable router; users in the mesh cloud can associate with mesh nodes
APs (open and WPA-PSK protected ones) and start browsing. ROBIN comes also
with a precofigured NoDogSplash release offering firewalling and
throttling.

If you want test the ROBIN download it (images and docs) from:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/ponte2/
the tarball contains the kernel (vmlinux.gz .lzma) and the root filesystem
(jffs2-64k) needed for flashing Meraki Mini and Fonera.

Many thanks to all for suggestions, reports and bug divering!

Hi, all. Hi, Antonio.

I've made up two ROBIN nodes on LaFoneras.
They works quite well.

Ive allready got a  5Node fonera robin mesh and 8others are waiting to
be installed; first a vis-server;and the most recent updates

I tried ROBIN on the Meraki nodes i have,must say it really looks promising.
Truly 0-config without the need of a central server this is plug-n play :)

I was wondering why dont you use the same essid as ROBIN instead of the
ROBIN_mac/ip.
This would make a mesh repeater network and would completely emulate meraki.

Thanks and

Vinay

The ESSID ROBIN_mac/ip is only for the public hotspotting, ROBIN works on
pseudo-IBSS mode (adhemo) without beacons (invisible), so mesh ESSID is
not necessary.

Antonio,

OK.  Is it OK with you if I md5 the password for ath2 / ssh?

Will you be setting the passwd for ssh using it in this build?

so people are flashing the meraki because they don't want to work with the

Not only. So that, we are writing a server side php interface that will
replace a visualization server and will rely on Meraki dashborad adding
some views taken from nodogsplash daemon... I think it will be ready for
public tests within a couple of weeks.

The other reason was that I think is better starting from scratch with a
totally open, clear and clean root filesystem like kamikaze: I colud build
the needed image with only and only what I want and skilled users can
upgrade adding any desired package.

...personally not any flames against Meraki dashboard !
