I'll send soon an email to write together the topics agenda, I remember
last year we were in a hurry for GSoC (google summer of code)
applications with Freifunk, maybe this year we can speak about this more
relaxed :)

see you soon

Cristina

ci vediamo al prossimo Incontro Tecnico

        mercoledì 15 febbraio 13UTC


Ma....... la prossima riunione sarà

    sabato 4 febbraio 13UTC


http://libremesh.org/communication.html

Invierò presto una mail per scrivere insieme gli argomenti dell'Agenda,
anche perchè ricordo che febbraio scorso eravamo di fretta per proporre
i progetti per il GSoC (google summer of code) con Freifunk,
magari quest'anno riusciamo a parlarne con più tranquillità


ciao a presto

TECH MEETING

Attendees:
Cri, Hiure, Elektra, Eric, Tania

Agenda

     Services


     debug connectivity problems with local services (Hiure) 2 router 
connected by wifi and both cable, interest most BATMAN (level2),


     Integration w/ local services and content (LokaLR and beyond)


     Hiure: Looping issue investigation. Sanketh found solution? 
https://www.open-mesh.org/projects/batman-adv/wiki/Bridge-loop-avoidance


     Is a new version needed where this is included? What work is entailed?


     Elektra: Potential easy Fix. Shellscript to execute. LM system 
doesn't currently enable this. Workaround: Add the line "batctl bl 1" to 
/etc/rc.local



     UCI: add commands to change /etc/config/batman, or manually edit this.


     Hiure: need to find this in LM.


     Elektra: To investigate and propose way forward and any support 
required. (Done. See 1.5 ;)


     Cristina: network profile of our community, and to show where some 
comunity configuration can be written and applied: 
https://github.com/libremesh/network-profiles/blob/master/valsamoggia.ninux.org/vs-ninux-generic/root/etc/config/lime-community



     Next meeting dates:


     * 4th february Organization of LiMe 
http://libremesh.org/communication.html


     * wednesday tech meeting 1 of February  (same week of the other 
meeting) or 8 of February (just near to the other) or 15 of february


Hardware

     "Legacy hardware that is actually in use in real world community 
networks"


     What hardware are others already using.  What hardware CAN be used.


     Where is the most up to date list? Should/how can this be 
organized, and shared on LM website/github, etc


       http://libremesh.org/docs/en_quick_starting_guide.html


     Compatible Hardware


     It is recommended that the router has at least 8 MB of flash memory 
and 64 MB of RAM. For routers with 4 MB flash memory or 32 MB of RAM, 
use the special firmware named -mini or compile one yourself excluding 
some heavy packages (e.g. opkg or the LuCI and lime-app web interfaces).


     Not all the OpenWrt supported routers work with LibreMesh (at 
least, not with its default configuration), for a list of the tested 
hardware, see our hardware page. 
http://libremesh.org/docs/hardware/index.html


     Tested Hardware (from the list in the website)


     This is a list of devices that were tested by the community and 
reported as fully compatible with LibreMesh, it is by no means a 
complete list of the working devices.

     openwrt-19.07 branch (git-21.044.30835-34e0d65) And we have the 
same firmware also on CPE 510 v2



     Updated Hardware List:

C50v4, CPE210v1-3,


     Equippment ported only to owrt22 - Archer C50 v5, Archer C6 (to 
test new LIME version)


     bologna appennino:  Ubiquity Litebeam M5 - TPlink CPE 510 (ath79)



https://antennine.noblogs.org/post/2021/12/15/tipi-di-antenne-che-usiamo/

     Hiure - Brasil / India : Cpe510/v1,v2,v3, Cpe210/v1,v2,v3 Cpe220, 
A7v5, tl-wdr3500, tl-wdr3600, tl-wdr4310, C60, C7, C5



     Are we limited to the devices on the OpenWRT list? 
https://openwrt.org/toh/start


     How are people porting new devices?


     Big changes w/ new OpenWRT version.  Sometimes previous LM versions 
on OpenWRT 18 worked, now with v.19, things break.


     How do we define the process of using more hardware, including 
hardware not on OpenWRT list.

     ## QoS,using TC (traffic control)


what do yuo think about aplly QoS in a mesh network, how to know how
much bandwith do you share with the others. can you set a distribution
of this.
on AP and Client, but difficult in nodes of mesh, because that are
running the mesh routing

Bologna: we collect the data by Prometheus + Graphana and show to the
community, we have meeting to show with the others, 1 meeting closed
with everyone inside the mesh network; ither 3 public meeting in a
public place, and we have every season a public tech meeting. we started
to do that meeting for show the privacy problem but at he end is usefull
for the know the consumtion of bandwith
in my island we are 15 with a connction of 30Mbs down /10Mbs up

Elektra: traffic shaping to go on AP that clients are using.
Is there a more centralized way to do this?

Who else is doing this, or interested in this?

Hiure:
Pirhana, in Brazil. Allow people to access by Voucher. PiHole - to block
sites.

## support for OpenWrt 22.03

A the moment, about the support for OpenWrt 22.03, from
Bologna/appennino we have in use a link done on Tplink CPE 510 v2.3

working to merge this https://github.com/libremesh/lime-packages/pull/959
