Mississippi Network Diagram and Configuration

Buick serves DHCP and does NAT for our DSL line. All of the metrix boxes run ["STP"]. The whole network is bridged, and in the 10.11.104.0/22 network.

Include(MississippiNetworkNews, "NEWS", 2, from="^.*$")

TODO

  • Add connectable interfaces to eth0, ath0 and ath1 so that recovery from bridge failure is easier.
  • Followup on madwifi.org ticket [http://www.madwifi.org/ticket/166 166], which describes our problems with metrix-west.

  • What's the deal with Broadcom-based client devices connected to Atheros based APs? Why doesn't it work? Under what circumstances (if any) will it?
  • Decommission (redundant) Cisco AP on Commons
  • Ed's is mounted on the chimney, plugged in, talking to metrix-naya-nw. Need to try repointing antenna at Commons roof.
  • Metrix-naya-sw currently does not have line-of-sight from Commons mast due to vegetation, but still a reasonable signal, probably want to use metrix-naya-nw for 11a backhaul instead for better line-of-sight, perhaps even replacing metrix-naya-sw with a single-radio device. Another option is to leave both metrixes pointing at Commons. The spanning-tree protocol (STP) should pick one to use and self-heal if one goes down.
  • Metrix-naya-nw's ath0 is configured as a master for Ed's on ESSID backhaul-nw, channel 161. If we can get Ed's metrix connected to metrix-commons, then we should change metrix-naya-nw's ath0 into client on the 11a backhaul network and point its backfire antenna at metrix-commons.
  • The Sector antennas on Naya might benefit from being repointed...
  • Install link to second DSL line (in bookstore) and setup round-robin load balancing
  • Need to install a "repeater" at Cecily's location, attached to the ethernet port on the PoE injector.
  • Need to install a "repeater" at Amnesia brewing inside and behind the corrogated steel.
