Introduction

This page will (hopefully) become a place for people to communicate and post information in an attempt to audit most of the known PersonalTelco nodes. Once before a project with a similar purpose existed, called ["AdoptANode"]. For a list of nodes look to the NodeMap or NetworkAddressAllocations. CategoryNode and the Subversion repository (under http://svn.personaltelco.net/svn/ptp/system/trunk/node) are good places to collect data.

For each node we hope to collect:

  • SSID (www.personaltelco.net)
    • If the ESSID doesn't contain this, it's not really a node, according to the NodeStandards.

  • Node Name (i.e. SouthParkBlocks, CrowBar) and Number (i.e. 597)

    • Not all nodes have numbers.
  • Node Address
  • [Contact: phone number, email address?]
    • Get the name of the person to talk to also.
    • It's best to get both a phone number and an email address.
    • Some nodes prefer to remain anonymous, and I think it's a good idea to respect that.
  • Channel (1-11)
    • There are quite a few more channels in 802.11a.
    • It might be nice to document whether an AP supports 802.11g or state exactly what types of interface are supported.
  • ISP
    • Not a very important data point, IMHO.
  • IP address space (see NetworkAddressAllocations)

  • Public IP (Static/DHCP) / Routing Information
  • DNS server addresses
  • Features/Description of Node Location (i.e. coffee house with good lattes)
    • Try and keep these objective...
  • Last Audit Date, By Whom?

Progress

I don't want to have duplicate data lying around, and a lot of this information is stuff we've already collected, so I've gone ahead and updated NodeTemplate to make it clear what pieces of information are relevant and updated a couple of node information pages to match that template. - KeeganQuinn
