As already done with other config mode texts, the altitude field now has default texts that are used when they are not set in the site i18n files. The altitude-help text has been removed from site i18n; instead, the geo-location-help text now overrides the whole section description including the part that mentions the altitude.

Site configuration
|
|
==================
|
|
|
|
The ``site`` consists of the files ``site.conf`` and ``site.mk``.
|
|
In the first community based values are defined, which both are processed
|
|
during the build process and runtime.
|
|
The last is directly included in the make process of Gluon.
|
|
|
|
Configuration
|
|
-------------
|
|
|
|
The ``site.conf`` is a lua dictionary with the following defined keys.
|
|
|
|
hostname_prefix
|
|
A string which shall prefix the default hostname of a device.
|
|
|
|
site_name
|
|
The name of your community.
|
|
|
|
site_code
|
|
The code of your community. It is good practice to use the TLD of
|
|
your community here.
|
|
|
|
domain_seed
|
|
32 bytes of random data, encoded in hexadecimal, used to seed other random
|
|
values specific to the mesh domain. It must be the same for all nodes of one
|
|
mesh, but should be different for firmwares that are not supposed to mesh with
|
|
each other.
|
|
|
|
The recommended way to generate a value for a new site is:
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
echo $(hexdump -v -n 32 -e '1/1 "%02x"' </dev/urandom)
|
|
|
|
prefix4 \: optional
|
|
The IPv4 Subnet of your community mesh network in CIDR notation, e.g.
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
prefix4 = '10.111.111.0/18'
|
|
|
|
Required if ``next_node.ip4`` is set.
|
|
|
|
prefix6
|
|
The IPv6 subnet of your community mesh network, e.g.
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
prefix6 = 'fdca::ffee:babe:1::/64'
|
|
|
|
node_prefix6
|
|
The ipv6 prefix from which the unique IP-addresses for nodes are selected
|
|
in babel-based networks. This may overlap with prefix6. e.g.
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
node_prefix6 = 'fdca::ffee:babe:2::/64'
|
|
|
|
node_client_prefix6
|
|
The ipv6 prefix from which the client-specific IP-address is calculated that
|
|
is assigned to each node by l3roamd to allow efficient communication when
|
|
roaming. This is exclusively useful when running a routing mesh protocol
|
|
like babel. e.g.
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
node_client_prefix6 = 'fdca::ffee:babe:3::/64'
|
|
|
|
timezone
|
|
The timezone of your community live in, e.g.
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
-- Europe/Berlin
|
|
timezone = 'CET-1CEST,M3.5.0,M10.5.0/3'
|
|
|
|
ntp_server
|
|
List of NTP servers available in your community or used by your community, e.g.:
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
ntp_servers = {'1.ntp.services.ffac','2.ntp.services.ffac'}
|
|
|
|
This NTP servers must be reachable via IPv6 from the nodes. If you don't want to set an IPv6 address
|
|
explicitly, but use a hostname (which is recommended), see also the :ref:`FAQ <faq-dns>`.
|
|
|
|
opkg \: optional
|
|
``opkg`` package manager configuration.
|
|
|
|
There are two optional fields in the ``opkg`` section:
|
|
|
|
- ``openwrt`` overrides the default OpenWrt repository URL. The default URL would
|
|
correspond to ``http://downloads.openwrt.org/snapshots/packages/%A``
|
|
and usually doesn't need to be changed when nodes are expected to have IPv6
|
|
internet connectivity.
|
|
- ``extra`` specifies a table of additional repositories (with arbitrary keys)
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
opkg = {
|
|
openwrt = 'http://opkg.services.ffac/openwrt/snapshots/packages/%A',
|
|
extra = {
|
|
gluon = 'http://opkg.services.ffac/modules/gluon-%GS-%GR/%S',
|
|
},
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
There are various patterns which can be used in the URLs:
|
|
|
|
- ``%d`` is replaced by the OpenWrt distribution name ("openwrt")
|
|
- ``%v`` is replaced by the OpenWrt version number (e.g. "17.01")
|
|
- ``%S`` is replaced by the target board (e.g. "ar71xx/generic")
|
|
- ``%A`` is replaced by the target architecture (e.g. "mips_24kc")
|
|
- ``%GS`` is replaced by the Gluon site code (as specified in ``site.conf``)
|
|
- ``%GV`` is replaced by the Gluon version
|
|
- ``%GR`` is replaced by the Gluon release (as specified in ``site.mk``)
|
|
|
|
regdom \: optional
|
|
The wireless regulatory domain responsible for your area, e.g.:
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
regdom = 'DE'
|
|
|
|
Setting ``regdom`` is mandatory if ``wifi24`` or ``wifi5`` is defined.
|
|
|
|
wifi24 \: optional
|
|
WLAN configuration for 2.4 GHz devices.
|
|
``channel`` must be set to a valid wireless channel for your radio.
|
|
|
|
There are currently three interface types available. You many choose to
|
|
configure any subset of them:
|
|
|
|
- ``ap`` creates a master interface where clients may connect
|
|
- ``mesh`` creates an 802.11s mesh interface with forwarding disabled
|
|
- ``ibss`` creates an ad-hoc interface
|
|
|
|
Each interface may be disabled by setting ``disabled`` to ``true``.
|
|
This will only affect new installations.
|
|
Upgrades will not change the disabled state.
|
|
|
|
Additionally it is possible to configure the ``supported_rates`` and ``basic_rate``
|
|
of each radio. Both are optional, by default hostapd/driver dictate the rates.
|
|
If ``supported_rates`` is set, ``basic_rate`` is required, because ``basic_rate``
|
|
has to be a subset of ``supported_rates``.
|
|
The example below disables 802.11b rates.
|
|
|
|
``ap`` requires a single parameter, a string, named ``ssid`` which sets the
|
|
interface's ESSID. This is the WiFi the clients connect to.
|
|
|
|
``mesh`` requires a single parameter, a string, named ``id`` which sets the
|
|
mesh id, also visible as an open WiFi in some network managers. Usually you
|
|
don't want users to connect to this mesh-SSID, so use a cryptic id that no
|
|
one will accidentally mistake for the client WiFi.
|
|
|
|
``ibss`` requires two parametersr: ``ssid`` (a string) and ``bssid`` (a MAC).
|
|
An optional parameter ``vlan`` (integer) is supported.
|
|
|
|
Both ``mesh`` and ``ibss`` accept an optional ``mcast_rate`` (kbit/s) parameter for
|
|
setting the multicast bitrate. Increasing the default value of 1000 to something
|
|
like 12000 is recommended.
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
wifi24 = {
|
|
channel = 11,
|
|
supported_rates = {6000, 9000, 12000, 18000, 24000, 36000, 48000, 54000},
|
|
basic_rate = {6000, 9000, 18000, 36000, 54000},
|
|
ap = {
|
|
ssid = 'alpha-centauri.freifunk.net',
|
|
},
|
|
mesh = {
|
|
id = 'ueH3uXjdp',
|
|
mcast_rate = 12000,
|
|
},
|
|
ibss = {
|
|
ssid = 'ff:ff:ff:ee:ba:be',
|
|
bssid = 'ff:ff:ff:ee:ba:be',
|
|
mcast_rate = 12000,
|
|
},
|
|
},
|
|
|
|
wifi5 \: optional
|
|
Same as `wifi24` but for the 5Ghz radio.
|
|
|
|
next_node \: package
|
|
Configuration of the local node feature of Gluon
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
next_node = {
|
|
name = { 'nextnode.location.community.example.org', 'nextnode', 'nn' },
|
|
ip4 = '10.23.42.1',
|
|
ip6 = 'fdca:ffee:babe:1::1',
|
|
mac = '16:41:95:40:f7:dc'
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
All values of this section are optional. If the IPv4 or IPv6 address is
|
|
omitted, there will be no IPv4 or IPv6 anycast address. The MAC address
|
|
defaults to ``16:41:95:40:f7:dc``; this value usually doesn't need to be
|
|
changed, but it can be adjusted to match existing deployments that use a
|
|
different value.
|
|
|
|
When the nodes' next-node address is used as a DNS resolver by clients
|
|
(by passing it via DHCP or router advertisements), it may be useful to
|
|
allow resolving a next-node hostname without referring to an upstream DNS
|
|
server (e.g. to allow reaching the node using such a hostname via HTTP or SSH
|
|
in isolated mesh segments). This is possible by providing one or more names
|
|
in the ``name`` field.
|
|
|
|
.. _user-site-mesh:
|
|
|
|
mesh
|
|
Configuration of general mesh functionality.
|
|
|
|
To avoid inter-mesh links, Gluon can encapsulate the mesh protocol in VXLAN
|
|
for Mesh-on-LAN/WAN. It is recommended to set *mesh.vxlan* to ``true`` to
|
|
enable VXLAN in new setups. Setting it to ``false`` disables this
|
|
encapsulation to allow meshing with other nodes that don't support VXLAN
|
|
(Gluon 2017.1.x and older). In multi-domain setups, *mesh.vxlan* is optional
|
|
and defaults to ``true``.
|
|
|
|
Gluon generally segments layer-2 meshes so that each node becomes IGMP/MLD
|
|
querier for its own local clients. This is necessary for reliable multicast
|
|
snooping. The segmentation is realized by preventing IGMP/MLD queries from
|
|
passing through the mesh.
|
|
|
|
By default, not only queries are filtered, but also membership report and
|
|
leave packets, as they add to the background noise of the mesh. As a
|
|
consequence, snooping switches outside the mesh that are connected to a
|
|
Gluon node need to be configured to forward all multicast traffic towards
|
|
the mesh; this is usually not a problem, as such setups are unusual. If
|
|
you run a special-purpose mesh that requires membership reports to be
|
|
working, this filtering can be disabled by setting the
|
|
optional *filter_membership_reports* value to ``false``.
|
|
|
|
In addition, options specific to the batman-adv routing protocol can be set
|
|
in the *batman_adv* section:
|
|
|
|
The optional value *gw_sel_class* sets the gateway selection class. The
|
|
default is class 20, which is based on the link quality (TQ) only; class 1
|
|
is calculated from both the TQ and the announced bandwidth.
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
mesh = {
|
|
vxlan = true,
|
|
filter_membership_reports = false,
|
|
batman_adv = {
|
|
gw_sel_class = 1,
|
|
},
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
|
|
mesh_vpn
|
|
Remote server setup for the mesh VPN.
|
|
|
|
The `enabled` option can be set to true to enable the VPN by default. `mtu`
|
|
defines the MTU of the VPN interface, determining a proper MTU value is described
|
|
in the :ref:`FAQ <faq-mtu>`.
|
|
|
|
By default the public key of a node's VPN daemon is not added to announced respondd
|
|
data; this prevents malicious ISPs from correlating VPN sessions with specific mesh
|
|
nodes via public respondd data. If this is of no concern in your threat model,
|
|
this behaviour can be disabled (and thus announcing the public key be enabled) by
|
|
setting `pubkey_privacy` to `false`. At the moment, this option only affects fastd.
|
|
|
|
The `fastd` section configures settings specific to the *fastd* VPN
|
|
implementation.
|
|
|
|
If `configurable` is set to `false` or unset, the method list will be replaced on updates
|
|
with the list from the site configuration. Setting `configurable` to `true` will allow the user to
|
|
add the method ``null`` to the beginning of the method list or remove ``null`` from it,
|
|
and make this change survive updates. Setting `configurable` is necessary for the
|
|
package `gluon-web-mesh-vpn-fastd`, which adds a UI for this configuration.
|
|
|
|
In any case, the ``null`` method should always be the first method in the list
|
|
if it is supported at all. You should only set `configurable` to `true` if the
|
|
configured peers support both the ``null`` method and methods with encryption.
|
|
|
|
You can set syslog_level from verbose (default) to warn to reduce syslog output.
|
|
|
|
The `tunneldigger` section is used to define the *tunneldigger* broker list.
|
|
|
|
**Note:** It doesn't make sense to include both `fastd` and `tunneldigger`
|
|
sections in the same configuration file, as only one of the packages *gluon-mesh-vpn-fastd*
|
|
and *gluon-mesh-vpn-tunneldigger* should be installed with the current
|
|
implementation.
|
|
|
|
**Note:** It may be interesting to include the package *gluon-iptables-clamp-mss-to-pmtu*
|
|
in the build when using *gluon-mesh-babel* to work around icmp blackholes on the internet.

|
Configuration for the autoupdater feature of Gluon.
|

All configured mirrors must be reachable from the nodes via IPv6. If you don't want to set an IPv6 address
|
|
explicitly, but use a hostname (which is recommended), see also the :ref:`FAQ <faq-dns>`.
|
|
|
|
config_mode \: optional
|
|
Additional configuration for the configuration web interface. All values are
|
|
optional.
|
|
|
|
When no hostname is specified, a default hostname based on the *hostname_prefix*
|
|
and the node's primary MAC address is assigned. Manually setting a hostname
|
|
can be enforced by setting *hostname.optional* to *false*.
|
|
|

|
|
password form can be displayed by setting *remote_login.show_password_form*

|
|
|
|
roles \: optional
|
|
Optional role definitions. Nodes will announce their role inside the mesh.
|
|
This will allow in the backend to distinguish between normal, backbone and
|
|
service nodes or even gateways (if they advertise that role). It is up to
|
|
the community which roles to define. See the section below as an example.
|
|
``default`` takes the default role which is set initially. This value should be
|
|
part of ``list``. If you want node owners to change the role via config mode add
|
|
the package ``gluon-web-node-role`` to ``site.mk``.
|
|
|
|
The strings to display in the web interface are configured per language in the
|
|
``i18n/en.po``, ``i18n/de.po``, etc. files of the site repository using message IDs like
|
|
``gluon-web-node-role:role:node`` and ``gluon-web-node-role:role:backbone``.

},
|
|
|
|
setup_mode \: package
|
|
Allows skipping setup mode (config mode) at first boot when attribute
|

Build configuration
|
|
-------------------
|
|
|
|
The ``site.mk`` is a Makefile which defines various values
|
|
involved in the build process of Gluon.
|
|
|
|
GLUON_FEATURES
|
|
Defines a list of features to include. The feature list is used to generate
|
|
the default package set.
|
|
|
|
GLUON_SITE_PACKAGES
|
|
Defines a list of packages which should be installed in addition to the
|
|
default package set. It is also possible to remove packages from the
|
|
default set by prepending a minus sign to the package name.
|
|
|
|
GLUON_RELEASE
|
|
The current release version Gluon should use.
|
|
|
|
GLUON_PRIORITY
|
|
The default priority for the generated manifests (see the autoupdater documentation
|
|
for more information).
|
|
|
|
GLUON_REGION
|
|
Region code to build into images where necessary. Valid values are the empty string,
|
|
``us`` and ``eu``.
|
|
|
|
GLUON_LANGS
|
|
List of languages (as two-letter-codes) to be included in the web interface. Should always contain
|
|
``en``.
|
|
|
|
GLUON_WLAN_MESH
|
|
Setting this to ``11s`` or ``ibss`` will enable generation of matching images for devices which don't
|
|
support both meshing modes, either at all (e.g. ralink and mediatek don't support AP+IBSS) or in the
|
|
same firmware (ath10k-based 5GHz). Defaults to ``11s``.

Feature flags
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
|
|
With the addition of more and more features that interact in complex ways, it
|
|
has become necessary to split certain packages into multiple parts, so it is
|
|
possible to install just what is needed for a specific usecase. One example
|
|
is the package *gluon-status-page-mesh-batman-adv*: There are batman-adv-specific
|
|
status page components; they should only be installed when both batman-adv and
|
|
the status page are enabled, making the addition of a specific package for this
|
|
combination necessary.
|
|
|
|
With the ongoing modularization, e.g. for the purpose of supporting new
|
|
routing protocols, specifying all such split packages in *site.mk* would
|
|
soon become very cumbersome: In the future, further components like
|
|
respondd support or languages might be split off as separate packages,
|
|
leading to entangled package names like *gluon-mesh-vpn-fastd-respondd* or
|
|
*gluon-status-page-mesh-batman-adv-i18n-de*.
|
|
|
|
For this reason, we have introduced *feature flags*, which can be specified
|
|
in the *GLUON_FEATURES* variable. These flags allow to specify a set of features
|
|
on a higher level than individual package names.
|
|
|
|
Most Gluon packages can simply be specified as feature flags by removing the ``gluon-``
|
|
prefix: The feature flag corresponding to the package *gluon-mesh-batman-adv-15* is
|
|
*mesh-batman-adv-15*.
|
|
|
|
The file ``package/features`` in the Gluon repository (or
|
|
``features`` in site feeds) can specify additional rules for deriving package lists
|
|
from feature flags, e.g. specifying both *status-page* and either *mesh-batman-adv-14*
|
|
or *mesh-batman-adv-15* will automatically select the additional package
|
|
*gluon-status-page-mesh-batman-adv*. In the future, selecting the flags
|
|
*mesh-vpn-fastd* and *respondd* might automatically enable the additional
|
|
package *gluon-mesh-vpn-fastd-respondd*, and enabling *status-page* and
|
|
*mesh-batman-adv-15* (or *-14*) with ``de`` in *GLUON_LANGS* could
|
|
add the package *gluon-status-page-mesh-batman-adv-i18n-de*.
|
|
|
|
In short, it is not necessary anymore to list all the individual packages that are
|
|
relevant for a firmware; instead, the package list is derived from a list of feature
|
|
flags using a flexible ruleset defined in the Gluon repo or site package feeds.
|
|
To some extent, it will even allow us to further modularize existing Gluon packages,
|
|
without necessitating changes to existing site configurations.
|
|
|
|
It is still possible to override such automatic rules using *GLUON_SITE_PACKAGES*
|
|
(e.g., ``-gluon-status-page-mesh-batman-adv`` to remove the automatically added
|
|
package *gluon-status-page-mesh-batman-adv*).
|
|
|
|
For convenience, there are two feature flags that do not directly correspond to a Gluon
|
|
package:
|
|
|
|
* web-wizard
|
|
|
|
Includes the *gluon-config-mode-...* base packages (hostname, geolocation and contact info),
|
|
as well as the *gluon-config-mode-autoupdater* (when *autoupdater* is in *GLUON_FEATURES*),
|
|
and *gluon-config-mode-mesh-vpn* (when *mesh-vpn-fastd* or *mesh-vpn-tunneldigger* are in
|
|
*GLUON_FEATURES*)
|
|
|
|
* web-advanced
|
|
|
|
Includes the *gluon-web-...* base packages (admin, network, WiFi config),
|
|
as well as the *gluon-web-autoupdater* (when *autoupdater* is in *GLUON_FEATURES*)
|
|
|
|
We recommend to use *GLUON_SITE_PACKAGES* for non-Gluon OpenWrt packages only and
|
|
completely rely on *GLUON_FEATURES* for Gluon packages, as it is shown in the
|
|
example *site.mk*.
|
|
|
|
.. _site-config-mode-texts:
|
|
|
|
Config mode texts
|
|
-----------------
|
|
|
|
The community-defined texts in the config mode are configured in PO files in the ``i18n`` subdirectory
|
|
of the site configuration. The message IDs currently defined are:
|
|
|
|
gluon-config-mode:welcome
|
|
Welcome text on the top of the config wizard page.
|
|
|
|
gluon-config-mode:pubkey
|
|
Information about the public VPN key on the reboot page.
|
|
|
|
gluon-config-mode:novpn
|
|
Information shown on the reboot page, if the mesh VPN was not selected.
|
|
|
|
gluon-config-mode:contact-help
|
|
Description for the usage of the ``contact`` field
|
|
|
|
gluon-config-mode:contact-note
|
|
Note shown (in small font) below the ``contact`` field
|
|
|
|
gluon-config-mode:hostname-help
|
|
Description for the usage of the ``hostname`` field
|
|
|
|
gluon-config-mode:geo-location-help
|
|
Description for the usage of the longitude/latitude fields (and altitude, if shown)
|
|
|
|
gluon-config-mode:altitude-label
|
|
Label for the ``altitude`` field
|
|
|
|
gluon-config-mode:reboot
|
|
General information shown on the reboot page.
|
|
|
|
There is a POT file in the site example directory which can be used to create templates
|
|
for the language files. The command ``msginit -l en -i ../../docs/site-example/i18n/gluon-site.pot``
|
|
can be used from the ``i18n`` directory to create an initial PO file called ``en.po`` if the ``gettext``
|
|
utilities are installed.
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
|
|
An empty ``msgstr``, as is the default after running ``msginit``, leads to
|
|
the ``msgid`` being printed as-is. It does *not* hide the whole text, as
|
|
might be expected.
|
|
|
|
Depending on the context, you might be able to use comments like
|
|
``<!-- empty -->`` as translations to effectively hide the text.
|
|
|
|
Site modules
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
The file ``modules`` in the site repository is completely optional and can be used
|
|
to supply additional package feeds from which packages are built. The git repositories
|
|
specified here are retrieved in addition to the default feeds when ``make update``
|
|
it called.
|
|
|
|
This file's format is very similar to the toplevel ``modules`` file of the Gluon
|
|
tree, with the important different that the list of feeds must be assigned to
|
|
the variable ``GLUON_SITE_FEEDS``. Multiple feed names must be separated by spaces,
|
|
for example::
|
|
|
|
GLUON_SITE_FEEDS='foo bar'
|
|
|
|
The feed names may only contain alphanumerical characters, underscores and slashes.
|
|
For each of the feeds, the following variables are used to specify how to update
|
|
the feed:
|
|
|
|
PACKAGES_${feed}_REPO
|
|
The URL of the git repository to clone (usually ``git://`` or ``http(s)://``)
|
|
|
|
PACKAGES_${feed}_COMMIT
|
|
The commit ID of the repository to use
|
|
|
|
PACKAGES_${feed}_BRANCH
|
|
Optional: The branch of the repository the given commit ID can be found in.
|
|
Defaults to the default branch of the repository (usually ``master``)
|
|
|
|
These variables are always all uppercase, so for an entry ``foo`` in GLUON_SITE_FEEDS,
|
|
the corresponding configuration variables would be ``PACKAGES_FOO_REPO``,
|
|
``PACKAGES_FOO_COMMIT`` and ``PACKAGES_FOO_BRANCH``. Slashes in feed names are
|
|
replaced by underscores to get valid shell variable identifiers.
