MESH Nodes with Amprnet Hi, I have switch my local nodes from IP 10/8 to 44.165.xx from AMPRNET and it is look better solution for us because our local nodes have direct access to wide Amprnet network and any host from AMPRNET have access to our Mesh BBHN nodes. I must change rules firewall on our one WRT54 which is gateway to Amprnet to pass 44/8 traffic to local nodes. We can use Amprent IP addresses on Mesh Nodes and setup local AmprNet gateway by register on http://portal.ampr.org. 73 Waldek sp2ong PS. It may be more desireable to build a Mesh Node from a scratch OpenWRT install.

I have computer hamnet server which is AmprNEt gateway which have 2 ethernet card. On one ethernet card I have connected one WRT54 with BBHN 1.0 which is MESH -<-> Amprnet gateway. I have setup all mesh nodes with setup menu to use IP adress 44.x. On the client mesh nodes users ony setup own IP address 44.x and not more. Whta I do with main WR54 MESH-AMPRNETGW. On wifi setup IP address from WIFI amprent network for example 44.165.32.254 and all my WIFI network is 44.165.32.0/24 On WAN port I have setup other IP 44.165.33.2 with mask 255.255.255.252 and ethernet PC card with IP 44.165.32.1 Now I have change files on WRT54 use vi editor: ------------------------------------------- /etc/config.mesh/olsrd.conf ------------------------------------------- I have add and modify follow: Hna4 { 44.0.0.0 255.0.0.0 } It is tell other that this WRT54 Mesh node is main router for 44/8 network on WIFI And in http://meshnode:8080 in SETUP menu I have switch ON in WAN port "Mesh gateway" After changes of files /etc/config.mesh/olsrd.conf you must got to http://meshnode:8080/cgi-bin/setup and push save and next reboot -------------------------------- I have modify file /usr/local/bin/olsrd-config I have add use suffix " ampr.org" with mesh node: # add the nameservice plugin push @file, qq(\nLoadPlugin "olsrd_nameservice.so.0.3"\n); push @file, qq({\n); push @file, qq( PlParam "sighup-pid-file" "/var/run/dnsmasq.pid"\n); push @file, qq( PlParam "suffix" ".ampr.org"\n); -------------------------------------------------------------------------- I have add ampr.org to menu in file /www/cgi-bin/setup if($config eq "mesh") { print "   "; print "\n"; print "   "; print "
