Hello, I'm trying to test (again) AHCP on OpenWRT.
I say "again" because I used AHCP in a little testebed about 18 months ago. The configuration was in a .dat file living in: /usr/lib/ahcp/ahcp.dat and it was only IPv6, and it was completely stateless without server/clients. It all worked very good to me, and for a while I did not use it anymore.... I met Alex Morlang at Ninux Day and ad 26C3 and I've been told of many changes: * support for IPv4 configuration * ASCII configuration instead of the binary file So, I'm reading the archives of this list but still there are some questions that I can't find an answer. Most of this questions are yes/no answers... probably some question needs a short explanation: 1) AHCP is a stand alone program, so does not depend on olsr or babel, so its configuration is autonomous, correct ? In openwrt I expect to configure everything in /etc/conf/ahcp 2) is node_id necessary ? I don't understand if this script: http://tinyurl.com/scriptfrom26c3 is necessary to have ahcp work ? So I have to set up something in /etc/conf/system ? 3) If I use AHCP to configure ONLY IPv6, then everything is stateless as in the old AHCP and I don't have to make a difference between server instances and client instances ? I see here: http://www.pps.jussieu.fr/~jch/software/repos/ahcpd/README "setting up a server" and "setting up a client" But this client server difference is also when using only IPv6 ? 4) Il possible to use AHCP only IPv6 + OLSR IPv6 ? 5) How do I tell the mesh node what is the IPv6 prefix of the network in /etc/config/ahcp ? for now thats all :) Thanks for clarifications :) Saverio _______________________________________________ Babel-users mailing list Babel-users@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/babel-users
