I've done a bit of work previously to reverse engineering the
provisioning mechanism, and I see nothing that would be a problem
collecting stats via that method. You'd still have to use groundcontrol
to initially connect/provision the units first to exchange SSH keys, and
you'd want it to be on a different ip that your previous aircontrol server.
A nasty thing about ubnt provisioning... if you replace the server on
the same ip or a different ip, all of the radios that were previously
provisioned will always try to connect to the old ip/server,which causes
quite a bit of arp traffic.
.... one thing I'd like to do is create a "cleanup tool" for that,
though pssh (parallel ssh) + wireshark helped me clean up that mess
"manually" in the past.

Would it pay to see if UBNT would allow us to continue to use some of
the provisioning mechanisms built into the radios for aircontrol?
It's nice to have subscriber units "phone home."

I was wondering if that might come about. Maybe another wisp that uses
their own software might offer something.

For those of you who haven't heard, several of us started a new
project yesterday.
https://github.com/esseph/groundcontrol
Licensing is tentatively set as falling under GPLv2.
We have already been offered code snippets, a dev box, a db server,
and several people have decided to volunteer time to make this happen.
The initial idea is that the system itself will be free, with a
possibly paid support/features option, or maybe a model similar to
observium where the is a "community" (free as in beer) version that
comes out every 6mo or so, and a "paid" version with newer features
and direct support. We're not sure yet, but we want to make this
project accessible and fairly vendor-neutral.
If any of you could volunteer time, support, code, documentation,
ideas, etc.it would be greatly appreciated. This is a project by and
for the WISP community. Thank you!
