Meshtool

[Meshtool -- till 2012/07]

Currently there are no comprehensive tools for management of meshed networks. This project aims at spreading the use of open, community oriented mesh network technology by providing the people behind the mesh with tools to manage and develop it.

Meshtool will assist in mesh network monitoring, administration and research. Current mesh networks are mostly comprised of wireless routers but Meshtool is designed to handling various types of devices, including mobile devices such as mobile phones & Wi-Fi equipped vehicles.

Key Features planned:

1. Mesh Network Monitoring & Administration: mainly wireless routers, but mobile devices as well.
2. Reference implementation of the Common Node Database Schema (CNDS).
3. Geographic Information Systems (GIS) support.
4. Facilitate mesh research through the Live Mesh Test Framework (LMTF).
5. 2D and 3D map viewers via Nasa World Wind Integration.
6. Network data Visualization.
7. Virtualized mesh node Support.
