The Mach Node Slum is a network of HotZones. A HotZone is an area of wireless coverage larger than a HotSpot. |
The Mach Node Slum is a single logical IPv6 network created by interlinked topological areas using 802.11b radio networking. Each topological area is called a HotZone. |
The Mach Node Slum is my take on a wireless cloud build-out. (DonPark)
The Mach Node Slum is a single logical IPv6 network created by interlinked topological areas using 802.11b radio networking. Each topological area is called a HotZone.
The core of a HotZone is a unix server with routing capabilites and at least one network interface connected to a radio/air interface. The local radio coverage of a HotZone can be expanded at layer 2 with repeater access points.
The implemenation of a HotZone today (28Feb2003) is powered by a soekris box with either a pcmcia radio or an ethernet connected AP. There is the option to extended the radio coverage at the layer 2 level with single or back-to-back DWL-900AP+.
A HotZone is linked to another HotZone by participating in the same VPN. All HotZones communicate via IPv6 only, using IPv4 tunnels where necessary.
