`gluon-announced` allows querying neighbouring nodes for their `nodeinfo`.
It is a daemon listening on the multicast address ``ff02::2:1001`` on
UDP port 1001 on the bare mesh interfaces. There is no client yet (but it's
being developed), but you can query the information using tools like ``socat``:
UDP port 1001 on the bare mesh interfaces.
gluon-neighbour-info
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A programm called `gluon-neighbour-info` has been developed to retrieve
information from neighbours.
::
# socat - UDP6-DATAGRAM:[ff02::2:1001%wlan0-1]:1001
nodeinfo
gluon-neighbour-info -i wlan0 \
-p 1001 -d ff02:0:0:0:0:0:2:1001 \
-r nodeinfo
This output is not compressed, but that is likely to change in the future. If
you intent to use ``gluon-announced``, please contact `tcatm` in Gluon's IRC
channel.
On optional timeout may be specified, e.g. `-t 5` (default: 3 seconds).
