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 ?
this script is totally unrelated to ahcp, it was planned to use the
node-id for measurement purposes.
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 ?
sure.
5) How do I tell the mesh node what is the IPv6 prefix of the network
in /etc/config/ahcp ?
you don't, afaik there is no support for this in the openwrt init
script.
use rc.local or commit a better initscript.
for now thats all :)
Thanks for clarifications :)
Saverio
gruss, Alex
P.S.: experimental 6mesh firmware with olsr6 and ahcp grows in git://
dev.dd19.de:6mesh.git
