Hello DC3! Seeking Advice Re: Open Source Monitoring/Dashboards for Community Networks

by Alexis Cullen

Hello DC3! Hello, I'm new to the group. My name is Alexis Cullen, and I'm from the USA originally, but am now living in Vanuatu & have been for the past 4 years (I was a Peace Corps Volunteer here in a remote village and my husband and I decided to try and stay in Vanuatu rather than return to the USA after our service, as we love it here) I've been working for the past three years with Maewo Island and together we've built a community network (after advocating for connectivity through traditional routes failed). Some of our information is on this website mtc.invanuatu.com and facebook page here: https://www.facebook.com/ MaewoWifi/, but we are in dire need of updating. I'm writing because I was hoping to find out what people were using for dashboards to monitor their networks?? I have a friend who codes, and he created a custom solution for us. He's planning to share it open source on Github. It pulls data from the network through a mikrotik router & raspberry pi combo. Happy to send our documentation to anyone who is curious. He started helping because we use Kacific Broadband Satellite for our backhaul and OpenDNS wouldn't work with their configurations . . .we were trying to get access to our own data and having a really hard time. Thus the custom script. Now we have data coming back to us, but no dashboard to interpret the raw data. My friend was going to code this for us, but he's flat out at the moment, busy with a lot of other projects. I suppose my question is whether or not we reinvented the wheel with our custom code, and what others are using to monitor their networks. Is anyone developing any solutions that they would be willing to share with us? We'd be so grateful! Thank you! Alexis

Fwd: [bestbits] Request of information: public wifi and personal data protection

by Michael Oghia

FYI ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: <rafaelzanatta(a)usp.br> Date: Wed, Aug 2, 2017 at 12:11 AM Subject: [bestbits] Request of information: public wifi and personal data protection To: "bestbits(a)lists.bestbits.net&gt &lt" <bestbits(a)lists.bestbits.net> Dear members of BestBits list, I'm not sure if you know about this, but the new mayor of São Paulo (João Dória) wants to change the rules of the public policy that sustains open and free Wi-Fi access in squares and public spaces. His plan is to monetize over the metadata and personal data of those citizens that access the "open wifi". The plan has been heavily critized by digital rights activists (see here <https://jota.info/colunas/agenda-da-privacidade-e-da-protecao-de-dados/expa…> and here) <http://www1.folha.uol.com.br/colunas/ronaldolemos/2017/07/1903596-sao-paulo…>. Now the City Hall has opened a public consultation about the rules of the partnership with the private sector. We need urgently some good examples of other cities that implemented partnerships with the private sector and respected privacy and personal data protection. If you have some materials (official documents or papers that explains the personal data protection policies in such open wi-fi initiatives), can you please send me? Thanks for your attention.
