[OLSR-users] Re: Topology Question

[Sven-Ola Tuecke]

Hi,

it's automatic. Each OLSR daemon knows the routes + quality (ETX) of each 
link and node. You need to correlate with the geopos (not part of OLSR). If 
you have a table with IPs and geopositions, you can correlate the dotdraw 
plugin output (wget -O - http://localhost:2004) or txtinfo-plugin output 
(wget -O - http://localhost:2006) with that table. Write a simple perl 
script or simlar. Your favorite script language may provide PNG output also.

Here's another example: 
http://olsrexperiment.de/sven-ola/Freifunk-Berlin.kml. Of course, you need 
google-world installed to load that file. Use File/Open. File is refreshed 
once per hour.
