Ti allego una serie di messaggi scambiati da un altra parte alcune
settimane fa in cui si parla di questa cosa.
Il codice lo trovi qui:
https://gitorious.org/eigennet/gentool
Più precisamente qui:
https://gitorious.org/eigennet/gentool/blobs/master/batman-adv-txtinfo/home/apache/public_html/battxtinfo.php
E genera un output come questo:
http://coppermine.eigenlab.org/battxtinfo.php
Visto che gioacchino è sempre super impegnato e non ha potuto scrivere
uno straccio di documentazione.. se riuscissi a fare funzionare il suo
codice e riuscissi a scrivere due righe su wiki.ninux.org te ne sarei
infinitamente grato...

Tnx a lot for the pointers Gioacchino, that's helpful, i'm probably
going to implement on my ubuntu quantal test server, will let you know
how it goes...
And sure Federico, will let you know as soon as it's up and running!

We use apache with php enabled as web server, you need to enable the

just can give you some hints but don't know how exactly do that on your

Thanks a Mill Federico, very helpful, and yes, plz let me know when you
set up mailing list..
In the meantime, Gioacchino, any notes or docs in implementing this

Basically I'm using a mix of Ubiquiti and Mesh Potatoes - running
batman-adv 2011.2.0 and acting as access points as well - Atheros
chipset.
I've used vis to generate maps using Spud, but it is limited in

is there another way for me to implement measuring link quality and

Hi Mike,
what routing protocol are you using?
Which type of devices are you using? (eg: Ubiquiti, Mikrotic, ecc)
the code of the scripts will need to be customized to suits your needs.

Regarding BATMAN, Gioacchino (added in CC) has written a script which
generates the network topology, like
http://coppermine.eigenlab.org/battxtinfo.php
The script is hosted here: https://gitorious.org/eigennet/gentool
And it's this file (which basically is a wrapper for other stuff):
https://gitorious.org/eigennet/gentool/blobs/master/batman-adv-txtinfo/home/apache/public_html/battxtinfo.php
(Gioacchino, do you have some documentation about that stuff?)
If you manage to make that file work, then you'll have to copy
read_topology_hna.py and edit the list TOPOLOGY_URLS to contain only the
URL of the file.
Once that is done, there's few additional things you have to do in the
admin:
* insert the devices of your network in the database
* for each device, insert the interfaces with the correct mac address
listed in the output of the php file
Regarding snmp.py, for Ubiquiti devices the snmp.py script should manage
to retrieve useful info from your network, provided the server where
nodeshot resides is connected (phisically or virtually) to your local
network *and* that your interfaces have an ipv4 address that snmp can
query. It seems SNMP doesn't support ipv6 yet.
Regarding MeshPotatoe ... never tried it.. try hacking a bit and let us
know.
We'll setup a mailing list for nodeshot, hopefully soon.
