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

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
* 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
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.
* enhancement: show the "non propagated" hosts as a grey color in the mesh list on the localnode.
This allows for the node admin to see, at a glance, which of the hosts are "hidden" or not.
* changed colors a little bit for the black background styles.
also assed in the aliases so now they will show up as a different color too.
this only effects the mesh listing on the localnode to where the aliases and/or non propagated hosts are.
the rest of the network does not see this.
* add a tooltip to the aliased/non propagated hostnames to help explain what they mean
Allows for aliased hostnames on the mesh. One IP/Host can be assigned to multiple hostnames.
This is useful for many things including virtual hosts, virtual machines, virtual email addresses, etc.
The possibilities are actually _endless_.
Fixes#516
Allows for the node admin to choose to have DHCP leased hostnames/IP's propagated over the rest of the mesh network or not.
Defaults to allowing the hostname/IP to propagate.
The hostname/IP will *still* be resolvable from the localnode and will show up in the list of hosts on the localnode only.
This allows for selected local mesh devices to be not available over the rest of the mesh network.
ie: switches, routers, cameras, etc.
This will work immediately for *new* DHCP leases when the checkbox is selected.
For *existing* DHCP leases, it may take a while for the network to update, if ever.
To speed up the process of full network OLSR "DNS" updating, reboot all the nearest neighbor device(s) to the node you made these changes to.
That seems to get the changes "out" to the rest of the network faster than normal.
Fixes#508
This reduces message forwarding by OLSR. Without this mode
olsr will forward a message backout the same interface it
was received on, presumably due to hidden 802.11n nodes.
OLSR has rare symptoms of live lock and stops
updating routing and host information. Suspect cause is
single threaded implementation with plugins continually
called from mutiple sources. Prior fixes to ensure
read/write calls are properly written may not have
fully resolved the causes. This change will reduce calls
to retrieve olsr data.
* Add experimental support for the GL.iNet GL-AR150 - https://openwrt.org/toh/gl.inet/gl-ar150
Mesh networking and tunneling have been confirmed working.
This device has been confirmed capable of operating on channel -1, but /etc/config/wireless has to be manually edited to select this channel.
* www/cgi-bin/perlfunc.pm patched to add UI support for the GL.iNet GL-AR150
* www/cgi-bin/perlfunc.pm patched to add UI support for the GL.iNet GL-AR150 - seems like only 18 dBm TX power is possible
* Remove Experimental comments and designate as stable
* Configure Ethernet ports & VLANs for GL-AR150, and update README.md
* Fix misunderstanding re README.md
* Patch Upstream OpenWRT GL-AR150 LAN & WAN LED mapping, configure WLAN LED as mesh linked indicator.

* aredn: hAP ac lite enable 5GHz LAN Access Point
enable ability to bridge LAN physical ports with wireless
LAN Access Point capability. On dual band hAP ac lite,
used in parallel with mesh RF on 2GHz. Enables future
features on single band devices to turn off mesh RF and
repurposed for mesh LAN Access Point.
closes: #215
Add support for the hAP lite model rb952UI-5ac2nD equivilent to
the UBNT AirRouter. The 5Ghz interface will be configured in a
2nd phase. This hAP lite model has double the RAM and Flash
of the AR. the 2Ghz is MIMO (5Ghz is single antenna).
with low memory conditions, typically on 32Mb RAM, the
device would become unresponsive in hours to days. The
symptoms only occured when no RF links. iw processes
would hang in Zombie state. Updates to use iwinfo where
possible and avoid using both iw and iwinfo. crontab
script is implemented to detect Zombie processes and free
up resources in the reduced chance the symptoms are still
occuring.
Wan interface settings are not correctly copied
over after an OTA causing node-setup to fail
when using a static WAN ip.

It is possible for the system to run out of memory when dealing
with large file uploads and installs.
As part of the upgrade procedure shutdown services that are not
essential for node operations to allow more memory for install
to take place.
Includes changes to linkled to indicate this new state as it will
be shutdown as part of the cleanup process.
Memory gain (approximate)
dropbear 100kb
linkled 200kb
logd 200kb
odhcp 100kb
snmpd 500kb
xinetd 100kb
Total(approximate): 1200kb (around %4 on 32mb devices)
This is somewhat similar to files/usr/local/bin/upgrade_kill_prep
except that it kills only a select group of services
so that the system can handle the file upload while
upgrade_kill_prep does the final system cleanup to run the full
upgrade.

Mesh nodes would need a significant amount of configuration
including some operational checks everytime an interface comes up
to be able to handle this.
The more sane method is to only allow a node to be a mesh_gw when
the WAN port is utilized and the node is in DIRECT mode.
This changes the UI to prevent this setup from being allowed.

Some settings would not copy correctly and would fall back to the config default due to faulty if checks logic when the value was set to 0 ending up in if(0) checks.
All devices that respond to an iw scan will be AP's or ADHOCS.
All adhoc devices need to have the adhoc designator so if we don't see this we know its an AP.
Also resolves the "0" signal strength as nodes that have not been seen in long time show up as a 0 for signal.
This is a regression of the issues seen on the iw scan but in this case applies to station dump which we have not used before.
Mainly relates to TP-Link devices which have a roving power level programmed into the hardware.
The datasheets for the hardware may say higher power but the chip has been programmed to not go above these values.
