| <<TableOfContents>> = Saturday November 14th = == How to not lose all your mesh nodes - Updating incompatible routing protocols with minimal downtime (Talk) == * Scheduled: yes, tentatively * Presenters: Paul (@cuechan) and Philipp (@yksflip) * Affiliation: luebeck.freifunk.net * Duration: 20 min * Preferred date: 14.11.2020 * Summary: Freifunk Lübeck is a community-driven wireless mesh network with more than 250 nodes. Upgrading the routing protocol batadv v14 to v15 is not necessarily easy. Due to their incompatibility and changes needed on the gateway side, we had to split our network in two parts. We will show different approaches on how to operate and bridge two incompatible networks and discuss their pros and cons. Gluon provides handy tools for this kind of complex firmware updates. We'll showcase the auto-updater and scheduled-domain-switcher, that helped us not to cut off our nodes from the mesh-network. Many hours were spent setting up test networks, building firmware and staring on iptables. In this talk, we want to take you with us on this adventurous journey. == RED and https://fsfe.org/activities/radiodirective/ (talk) == * Scheduled: yes * Presenter: Max Mehl * Optional affiliation: FSFE * Duration: 30 min * Preferred date / constraint: Saturday, 16:00-16:30 * Summary (about 200 words): TBD == Weather Radar WLAN Channel Map (Talk) == * Scheduled: yes, tentatively * Presenter: aIbert * Affiliation: funkfeuer.at * Duration: 26 min * No constraints * Summary: This talk describes my work on a Weather Radar WLAN Channel Map. The map displays the nominal coverage ranges (as circles) and approximate 5 GHz WLAN channels (listed below the map) occupied by European weather RADARs. Depending on the exact regulations in your region, WLANs that operate in the 5 GHz band are required to use a technique called Dynamic Frequency Selection (DFS) to avoid interfering with weather (and other) RADARs in the same band. Switching frequencies interrupts connectivity, so you should rather steer clear of WLAN channels used by RADARs in a location to avoid the performace hit. This map suggests which channels to avoid. '''Across Europe, channels 124, 128, and 120 are most likely to be occupied by RADARs.''' |

| * Summary: This talk presents my efforts to compare all mesh routing protocols we could get our hands on. We have tested scalability, traffic overhead and mobility on several topologies of up to 2000 nodes. To achieve this, we created a test framework based on Linux network namespaces to let Babel, batman-adv, BMX6, CJDNS, OLRSD, OLSR2, OSPF (maybe) and Yggdrasil run in different test scenarios. Let the virtual battle begin! :) | * Summary: This talk presents my efforts to compare all mesh routing protocols we could get our hands on.

If there is any time left then we would also like to get into interactive discussion and get feedback and ideas from the audience. |

| * Preferred date / constraint: Sunday * Summary: OpenWrt is well-known for providing ready-made firmware images: anybody can download an image, flash it on his/her own home router, and enjoy a modern and modular router system. However, OpenWrt also addresses a more confidential probleme space: building custom images. This becomes necessary when deploying customized OpenWrt systems on a large scale, for instance as part of an ISP or a wireless community network. This talk will cover several methods to build custom OpenWrt images, and in which situation each one makes the most sense. It will then specifically focus on the ImageBuilder and give an overview of external tools that make it easier to use the ImageBuilder, as well as some ideas to improve the overall experience. == Mesh Routing For Beginners (Talk) == * Scheduled: yes, tentatively * Presenter: mwarning * Duration: 30 min |
