Re: [Server-devel] Mesh Portal Question
Waqas, Are you explicitly blinding the laptops to force that network configuration ? Can XO-2 talk to XO-1 fine ? Can XO-1 talk to the server ? We do this regularly --- it has been tested and works.

Re: [Server-devel] Mesh Portal Question
Hello All, first let me define the scenario of my test, The distance between XO1 and my active antenna is 350 meters and the distance between XO2 and XO1 is almost 700 meters XO1 and XO2 can talk with each other very fine by simple mesh portal, i.e. i used chat activity between them XO1 gets connected with the school server without any hassle ( automatic ). Now what i am trying to get is to ping School server from XO2. I havent yet done any configuration or assigned any IPs, what i am testing is that of autoconfigurations XS -- XO1- XO2 now how to access XS from XO2 using Hop of XO1 Regards On Feb 12, 2008 11:40 PM, John Watlington <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Giannis, > Waqas indicated that he is not blinding his laptops. > > wad > > > On Feb 12, 2008, at 11:08 AM, Giannis Galanis wrote: > > > I believe in the blind table of XO-1, you have to include the > > anycast address C027C027C027. > > I think the last digits of the address are custom, but not sure > > though. > > > > Still, in your case, you should only blind XO2 to XO1, and dont > > forget to invert the blinding table. > > > > On Feb 11, 2008 11:41 AM, John Watlington <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > > Waqas, > >Are you explicitly blinding the laptops to force that network > > configuration ? > > > > Can XO-2 talk to XO-1 fine ?

Giannis, Waqas indicated that he is not blinding his laptops. wad On Feb 12, 2008, at 11:08 AM, Giannis Galanis wrote: > I believe in the blind table of XO-1, you have to include the > anycast address C027C027C027. > I think the last digits of the address are custom, but not sure > though. > > Still, in your case, you should only blind XO2 to XO1, and dont > forget to invert the blinding table. > > On Feb 11, 2008 11:41 AM, John Watlington <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Waqas, >Are you explicitly blinding the laptops to force that network > configuration ? > > Can XO-2 talk to XO-1 fine ?

Re: [Server-devel] Mesh Portal Question
I believe in the blind table of XO-1, you have to include the anycast address C027C027C027. I think the last digits of the address are custom, but not sure though. Still, in your case, you should only blind XO2 to XO1, and dont forget to invert the blinding table.

Re: [Server-devel] Mesh Portal Question
G'day, I have reproduced this test in a silent radio environment, using three XOs on build 656, in simple mesh mode, and I see no problem. I was able to ping fine from one end of the chain to the other. The software and firmware function okay in that configuration. Let's look into your radio environment further, using the tools on the laptops. > XS -- XO1- XO2 In my test I was able to type at XO1: # watch -d "iwpriv msh0 fwt_list 1;iwpriv msh fwt_list 2" ... and monitor the signal strength of each link. As the units moved, the signal to noise figure changed accordingly. I was also able to type the same at XO2 and see that it had an entry for XS via XO1, and that it did not list XS as a neighbour once the units were spread out. What do you see? You will need to identify the MAC addresses of each node and find them in the forwarding table. Perhaps I should configure a real XS. Anyone got any quick instructions? I've a couple of active antenna I can use. -- James Cameronmailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://quozl.netrek.org/ ___ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel
Re: [Server-devel] Mesh Portal Question
Kept this test running overnight, total of 6% loss over 33600 packets, each link with an snr of 50 to 60. The end node reported "libertas: tx watch dog timeout" ... so I'm not confident the test reproduced anything. -- James Cameronmailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://quozl.netrek.org/ ___ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel
Re: [Server-devel] Mesh Portal Question
Thanks James, I will perform my test again today, I hope what you told helps. My main test theme is the just be able to reach the school server from the hops of other XOs. I will later tell the over all progress and steps I took to perform the test.
