Documentation for each module can be found in the Makefile or in the Readme inside its directory, for example: https://github.com/libremesh/lime-packages/blob/master/packages/bandwidth-t… and https://github.com/libremesh/lime-packages/blob/master/packages/bandwidth-t… That's correct! The 17.06 release uses BMX6 and BATMAN-adv while the next release will use Babeld and BATMAN-adv. For getting this for 17.06, you did perfectly as you described checking lime-basic. For the next release, up to now the list of the packages is a not definitive but will likely be the one described on the website development page compilation guide: https://libremesh.org/development.html Will have for sure things like Babeld, BATMAN-adv, shared-state. Regarding the rest of the components (some I didn't even ever try), I don't know. It's not clear how and by who the next release will be defined, I would love to have a community-run process, either on this list or on the Riot/Matrix chat ( https://libremesh.org/communication.html ). I started sorting out the important and less important issues in https://github.com/orgs/libremesh/projects/2 please write me your Github username if you want to edit that table. Ehm... I'm not the most knowledgeable person on the technical details... What I know is that currently BATMAN-adv does not run on ethernet interfaces (I hope this will change soon) as discussed here: https://github.com/libremesh/lime-packages/issues/56 it is also not running on AP (unless the special apbb protocol is used, see lime-example file for documentation about this). So, by default, BATMAN-adv is running only on wireless mesh links (mesh or adhoc) and WAN ethernet port (nonsense?). Never tried BMX7. Yes, there are also layer 3 links. The ultimate goal of LibreMesh is to have local networks with routing at layer 2, while between these networks the routing is on layer 3. This makes sense for large networks. Someone with a deeper understanding should answer here... Goooood question! For BATMAN-adv and for BMX* we had packages checking connectivity (via watchping https://github.com/libremesh/lime-packages/tree/master/packages/watchping ): https://github.com/libremesh/lime-packages/tree/master/packages/batman-adv-… https://github.com/libremesh/lime-packages/tree/master/packages/bmx6-auto-g… in the Babeld case, I have no idea if a check mechanism has been implemented or if it has some internal magic for this. Both this topic and the need for improvements to watchping is being discussed here: https://github.com/libremesh/lime-packages/issues/93 smonit was fixing mainly two things: deaf interfaces, dnsmasq crashes and bmx6 crashes. Especially dnsmasq crashes were extremely frequent but got fixed upstream and at some point the problem disappeared. The deaf interfaces problem happens rarely so is difficult to debug (it could even be that with OpenWrt 19.07 the problem is magically gone... testing is needed), see here: https://github.com/libremesh/lime-packages/issues/144 there's a tool "cotonete" for detecting when the problem happens, here: https://github.com/nicopace/cotonete a solution is available but is not being included neither in LibreMesh development page recommended packages nor in LibreRouterOS. It does not (yet) use cotonete and runs constantly a fast scan: https://github.com/libremesh/lime-packages/tree/master/packages/wifi-unstuc… Seems a super nice router! Never tested :) Please tell us how it works with LibreMesh! And, if it works well, it would be great if you could update the supported routers table here: https://libremesh.org/docs/hardware/ Yessss, lack of documentation is a real issue :/ Feel free to improve or add documentation :D The website is easy to modify (the only thing needed is a Github account) as there are "Edit this page" buttons on every page :) You're welcome!

Thanks Ilario, that is a lot of information. I will need time to check it, compile and test. At the moment, i have one more question. I need to disable DHCP in the mesh, because it's received from "wan" (shoud be called upstream?). According to https://lists.libremesh.org/pipermail/lime-users/2017-November/000971.html, I will need only batadv? I will try ASAP, tomorrow. Regarding flashing process, .... thanks for the advice, but i've seven GL-B1300 with libremesh compiled some time ago. I will keep you informed. Thanks.
