Limit distance between DtD nodes which are considered at the same site.
Some network setups use non-ham networks to connect nodes over DtD links.
These should not be consider the same site, so we limit how far appart DtDed
nodes can be when optimizing.
* Tidy LQM status
Remove TX Estimate which was duplicating information on the mesh page and
confusing folk.
Sort by name to stop the display jumping around.
* Split out ping and tx qualities and use average of both.
* Improve keeping re-discovered nodes in pending
* Remove .local.mesh from hostname (they're there sometimes)
* Identify why poor quality traffic is blocked
* Link Quality Management experiment (built in)
* Protect LQM pages
* Omit "empty" mac addresses
* Integrate LQM v0.2
Includes proposed UI if this were built-in.
When LQM is enabled (advanced settings) the usual distance inputs are
replaced with "min snr' and "max distance" inputs which are the major
ones you might tweak, as well as a link to the LQM status page.
Other controls are now available (so protected) in advanced settings.
* Improve LQM updating
* Use running snr averages
* Merge app changes
* AREDN-ize the UI
* Improve status language
* Improved DtD detection
* Improve quality reporting
* Link Quality category
* Enable by default
* Better intergration
* Link => Neighbor
* Formatting
* Make sure initial page is populated without extra fetch
* Handle empty lqm.info
* Update with latest experiment algorithm changes
* Validate LQM settings before applying them
* Algorithm updates
* Improve quality reporting
* %% -> %
* Default max distance now 50 miles
* Get actual noise if radio will provide it
* low_snr => min_snr
* Dont print node description if we dont have one
* Remove properties duplicated from setup page
* Localize max distance. Miles in GB and US, Kilometers everywhere else.
* Ping link quality testing
* UDP 'ping' for quality check
* Change Active Settings title
* Expand ping test
* Improve messaging
* Add a ping penalty for neighbors which cannot be contacted in a timely manner.
* Remove user_blocks config option. No one needs to use this anymore.
* Localize distances on lqm page
* Improve status reporting
* First run emergency node setup.
When a node first runs LQM, if the default settings fail to connect to
a node we will now adjust them so that at least one node is viable.
* Restore blocking of mac addresses
* LQM now off by default
fixed#47
Without active clients the server will fail to start. This is okay, except this
error code causes the package installer to incorrectly report an install problem
requiring an unnecessary reboot.
If wifi is disabled, we will be using a "fake" device for the meshrf. However, this requires that the
underlying physical device is attached, and this might not be the case on devices with present
multiple ethernets (e.g. eth0 and eth1). Detect this and add an extra Hna4 config to OLSR to allow it to
keep using the wifi_ip even when no physical ethernet is attached.
* Dont display previous neighbors with empty hostnames
* Use IP address when name missing
* Fix bug where missing names became ever growing string of whitespace
* Improve the firmware upgrade process
The old firmware upgrade process attempted to free up RAM by reusing
the 'upgrade_kill_prep' script which is later used by '/sbin/sysupgrade'.
Unfortuantely this doesn't work as intented. While the script will go about
killing various services, 'procd' just goes and starts them up again using
quite a bit more memory in the process. Instead this script just kills
the various daemons 'no questions asked' and then runs the associated
'/etc/init.d/xxx stop' script to instruct 'procd' not the start them up again.
This gets us to the place the original script was trying to go.
+ A syntax fix in '007' patch (need spaces around the [ .. ])
* Inline the style for the firmware page to avoid sleep before flash
* Minor reliability improvements
* Clear away services even earlier
* Final bits of perl replaced by lua
* Use iwinfo during first boot (api I was using fails this early)
* Retry getting phy device (it can fail as the node is booting up)
* Lua vpn server and client pages
* Lua vpn server and client pages
* Fix reporting of daemon restart errors
* Lua olsrd-config
* Fix reversed client/server ip assignments
* Fix patterns for finding active tunnels
/etc/config.mesh/aredn sometimes gets truncated, although reproducing it is difficult. This
is one of the few places this file is mindlessly written to, so instead use cursors to update it.
* Lua Services
* Lua versions of user page (non-admin)
* Support multiple antenna chains
* Improved led detection
* Fix logging
* Add manager.log files to support tool
* Lua versions of user page (non-admin)
* Dont count default route
* Fix board id for older nodes
* Handle missing node.history
* Check /tmp/snrlog exists
* Per discussion, make the Lua pages the defaults and Perl the backups
* Migrate /etc/config/dmz-mode to /etc/dmz-mode
* Migrate dmz_mode into /etc/config/aredn
* Use cmd append
* Changes should be in /etc/config.mesh
* Add commit
* add uci migration script
* removed debug lines
* added newline to end
* include gridsquare values
* migrate lat/lon/gridsquare to uci format
* remove from sysupgrade kept files list
* Memory and cpu performance improvements
* Fix bandwidth reporting
* Discard large arrays once we're done with them
* Fixup whitespace
* Improve string constructions
* Use available mem
* Print the Remote Nodes as we go (can be big)
* Local variables
* Stop re-reading arp/mac files
* Reduce calls to system 'cat'
* Simply lat/lon read
* Only read route30 once
* Whitespace
* Make meshstatus limits configurable
* and => &&, or => ||
* gzip content if we can
fixes#155
* api: revise localhost function
Revise getLocalHosts() so it doesn't report unwanted hosts.
getLocalCnxType() is no longer needed.
* include new iplookup function too
* incorporate Eric r1de values for getCurrentNeighbors
* use alternative for mac2host()
* get actual wlan interface for arp query
* tested on dualband radio
Tested on dualband radios with active clients on both Mesh RF and Wifi
AP.
* add more error checking
* fix iplookup match
It is possible to have 2-digit "mid" prefixes. Fixes match to account
for 2 possible digits.
* tighten up code
* add extra info values for Eric r1de
* api: add RF IP for non-RF links
Add the RF IP address for non-RF linked devices. This allows the
services to be displayed for non-RF Current Neighbors.
* remove case manipulation
* Remove local.mesh suffix from CurrentNeighbor hostname
* Uppercase hostname for consistency
* Make hostname lowercase for consistency with Local Hosts display in newui
* fix: Local Alert File Read All
Read the entire local_message file rather than just the first line.
* fix: Local Alert File Read All
Also fix the issue with empty alert files showing empty newui alert
dialogs.
* Format Uptime as String
Format uptime as a string with values for days, hours, minutes, and
seconds.
* Format uptime as String
Change code to use the secondsToClock function in utils.lua
Update the alert banner background color to distinguish it from the
"supported hardware" messages. This makes it look more like a standard
sticky note.
Aliases in NAT mode allows the node admin to create alias names for hosts on the LAN and then use those for creating port forwarding rules. The aliases DO NOT effect the rest of the mesh network and are not propagated via OLSR.
NAT Mode aliases are only usable on the local LAN where the IP addresses are known and routable only on the subnet. Since the NAT hides these IP addresses or the node masquerades, other mesh nodes and devices by definition only know about the node’s hostname. Thus aliases on the LAN in NAT mode are not propagated by OLSR across the mesh. You _CANNOT_ use an alias name in a service listing.
You _will_ be able to set an alternate hostname for any host on the nodes' LAN however.
A host named `CBY45-DELLLAPTOP` can also be known as `wxc-shack-laptop`. It may make remembering which host is which a bit easier.
Since OLSR does not propagate the alias, the "Do Not Propagate" checkbox while in NAT Mode is hidden.
