R1 of the Commotion Wireless firmware made some incompatible changes to their configuration that we need to suss out and take into account in Byzantium.
All Commotion instances now pick IP addresses from RFC-6958 (Carrier Grade NAT address block) - 100.64/10
Each Commotion instance's client network comes from RFC-1918: 10/8
It no longer uses a default set of wireless settings. When Commotion nodes are first started up, they have to be configured.
BSSIDs for the mesh network are no longer hardcoded, they're deterministically generated. It's now a hash of the ESSID and wireless channel the node is configured for.
I think we have a couple of possible options here.
We can break with Commotion compatibility, at least for a little while.
We can use Scapy (http://www.secdev.org/projects/scapy/) to monitor the local wireless environment for a short time to determine if there are any Commotion nodes nearby, and if there are configure Byzantium for compatibility.
** We'll need to characterize Grumpy Cat's network activity to figure out what to look for first.
We can work out a compatibility mode with the Commotion team, because we're working with one another to build mesh networks first and foremost and not competing wit one another. Beer will probably be required.
We add a user-side configuration tool that reconfigures a running Byzantium instance with some values entered by the user to set things up appropriately.
We change Byzantium to do the same thing. I'm not so sure I like this option.
any progress on this? I have seen ByzPi node show up in the commotion, but rebuilding the setup on wheezy. The Apache2 changes in Jesse are causing issues.
