Libre-mesh on events

by al

Hey people, some Libre-mesh presence on this events? I think if Libre-mesh wants to be "The Meta-Firmware for Community Mesh Networks" has the obligation to be there: * Wireless Battle of the Mesh v7 in Leipzig (Germany) - May 12-18 http://battlemesh.org/BattleMeshV7 * Salut, Amor i Xarxa (SAX) in Morella (Països Catalans) - June 7-8 https://sites.google.com/site/sax2014morella/home (yeah, incredible: in google sites!) * Backbone 409 in Calafou (Països Catalans) - June 14-15 http://backbone409.calafou.org/

Lost password form on the site

by Ilario Gelmetti

Hi all! I'm Ilario from NinuxVerona (Italy), in NinuxVerona we use Libre-Mesh but up to now we have only one wireless link (UbiquitiPicoStationM2-wire-switch-wire-UbiquitiNanoStationM5-wireless-UbiquitiNanoStationM5). I registered on the libre-mesh site but the confirmation email never arrived, now the "lost password" page says "An email with instructions to choose a new password has been sent to you." but I can't see any email. Is it possible to become an editor of the libre-mesh site? Thanks, Ilario Gelmetti -- Ilario Gelmetti iochesonome(a)gmail.com ilario.gelmetti(a)sns.it

Ipv4 editing

by Gioacchino Mazzurco

I have seen this commit from guii, does it permit editing ipv4 in /etc/config/lime or does it edit /etc/config/network ? https://github.com/libre-mesh/lime-packages/commit/9aa4fcceade64db4abafba31…

I have installed the firmware. Now what? =)

by Ramiro Polla

Hi, I have compiled the firmware using lime-build for tl-mr3020, and then installed the firmware on two routers. The mesh works, they can see each other and I can connect to them as Access Points. Now I have two questions: 1. How do I connect a router to the Internet? 2. How do I share this connection with the mesh? For (1), I tried scanning for wifi networks but I got an error that libiwinfo-lua was missing. I connected to a network through ssh using wpa_supplicant and installed libiwinfo-lua, so now I can properly connect from the web interface. It seems libiwinfo-lua should be installed by default, shouldn't it? For (2), I'm not quite sure how to proceed. Ramiro

Issue: asymmetric bmx6 tunnels break PMTUD

by Gui Iribarren

Hey axel! so, we've scratching our heads today, facing some MTU issues on our shiny new libre-mesh network, and after a few hours debugging, tcpdumping and discussing, we came to these conclusions: * the invented src-addr in the bmxOut tunnel makes it impossible for hops along the path to return "Packet Too Big" to the originating node. So, if a particular link has a smaller MTU than the first link (say, a VPN is involved), the packet will be silently dropped. A==1500==B---1400---C===1500===D A wants to send a packet to a network announced by D; so it creates a tunnel with D as destination, and a "D-derived" fake address as src, that matches the bmxIn "catchall" tunnel peer-addr in D Then sends a 1460 + 40 = 1500 bytes packet through that tunnel, B cannot push that packet to C, then tries to send back a ICMPv6 PTB... but the src-addr it finds in the encapsulation is not A, but instead the "D-derived" fake addr. Then, the ICMPv6 PTB is lost and A can never find out about the smaller MTU. This fundamentally breaks PMTUD which is a bad idea in IPv6 to avoid this there are 3 options: * set mtu=1280 on every bmxOut tunnel (yuck! :( ) * probe before establishing each tunnel, with the real src-addr so that PMTUD can happen correctly, until it reaches the desired endpoint node. Then, use discovered PMTU for new tunnel. (*downside*: this will only work as long as path doesn't change to pass through some thinner link. In that case, PMTU will not be rediscovered, and packets will be dropped again.) * use the current bmxIn "catchall" tunnels only for sending special bmx6 control packets, that ask for a symmetric tunnel. i.e. 1) A sends to D (2001:db8::D) a packet (encapsulated with a fake src-addr, to be catched by the catchall @ D) with content "I'm A and this is my real address 2001:db8::A; please make a dedicated tunnel for me" 2) D gets that packet and creates a tunnel with "peer 2001:db8::A", then sends back an ACK to A, again using "A-derived" fake-addr as src 3) A gets the ACK and creates the tunnel with "peer 2001:db8::D" *** now both ends have a symmetric tunnel between them, with real src and dest address *** 4) A finally sends the real payload through the symmetric tunnel, this payload (may be bigger than 1280, say... 1450) will be encapsulated with the real src-addr of A, so if any node in the path needs to send back a Packet-too-big, will be able to, and PMTUD will happen correctly. (at the cost of a full RTT latency before the first payload packet, but with a reasonable tunnel expire time as it has currently, that shouldn't be terrible) back in April, i remember we discussed the idea of symmetric tunnels, and you brought up this "control connection" idea which i'm simply redescribing here. But that discussion was in another context, more like a 'feature', and finally didn't really solve the idea we had originally, yet, this PMTUD issue was not taken into account AFAIR, so the "symmetric tunnel" idea now becomes more like a bugfix (i.e. don't create PMTUD blackholes) what do you think? Cheers!! gui

Working on Libre-mesh HowTo for Guifi.net workers

by al

Hi from Garraf (Barcelona). Here we are with Gioacchino installing Libre-mesh nodes around and we are going to train a local group to lead Libre-mesh. People here use, understand and install guifi.net infraestructure nodes (RouterOS, AirOS, AP-WDS and BGP in both 5GHz and 2.4GHz), and they don't know more. So I just start to write a Libre-mesh HowTo oriented to this kind of base knowledge. I'm writing it in spanish and later I'm going to translate it to english and catalan. It's going to become a first approach to concepts like OpenWRT, ad-hoc, BMX6 and BATMAN-adv (without miths) for Guifi.net people. It is based on questions and answers, so, if you want to help, you can write some questions or try to write some answer. I'm doing it ehterpad here: http://pad.marsupi.org/manual-de-libre-mesh-para-guiferos

Post for the GSoC 2014 blog

by Gioacchino Mazzurco

I have written the post for the GSoC 2014 on a pad http://pad.eigenlab.org/p/gsoc2014_blog_post1 As politics often permeate what I say I ask yours reviews to see if something should be said in a more "politically correct" way before publication Moreover I am not a native english speaker so correction are welcome too :) If you choose to edit the pad please choose a color with good contrast in repect to the one i choosed so i can spot esly differences Thanks everyone :)
