Raw Normal View History

**Sprint Dates: Fri 29 April 2011 - Sun 1 May 2011**
## Goals
- Revisit sprint 1
- Gather metrics to determine efficiency of protocols.
- Sizes of routing protocols' packets.
- Number of packets per second/minute/hour transmitted by each
protocol.
- Average amount of traffic during normal operation.
- Determine how many nodes can participate in a mesh before
responsiveness or bandwidth begin to degrade.
## Stuff To Bring
- anything that can run babel
- laptops/netbooks
- desktops with wireless cards
- openwrt compatible routers (if you're feeling lucky/adventurous)
## Homework
- install babeld on every machine you plan to bring to the sprint
- \[optional\] install a kernel with support for batman-adv on the same
machines (it's built into the kernel after version 2.6.38+ ) or build
the modules separate from the kernel
- readup on route and ip/ifconfig commands in linux
- readup on ipv6
## Experiments
- network density
- hypothesis: if the nodes are positioned very densely, then the
network quality will degrade.
- test: position nodes at increasing densities starting with evenly
distributed nodes at their maximum effective range, and run tests to
measure network quality at each level of density.
## Suggestions
- Babeld install guide
- LiveCD guide
