Orangemesh: An Open-Source Dashboard for ROBIN-based Networks

Important Notice

We have moved this project to Sourceforge, as our project is released under the Affero GPL, which is not supported on Google Code (despite being an OSI-approved license from GNU). We are almost done moving. Visit our new project page: orangemesh.sourceforge.net!

For an overview of wireless mesh technology and information about how OrangeMesh fits in, click here. (Note: thanks for the temporary wiki space donated by UNC Student Government - we will be moving soon.)

You can look at our development server before you install to see a working installation.

Orangemesh is a joint project between Orange Networking and a group of students in the UNC-Chapel Hill COMP 523 Software Engineering course to develop an open source dashboard server for ROBIN mesh networks.

You can now grab our latest development release. It's available in our downloads section.

Features

• Seamless Integration with Open-Mesh: You can use Orangemesh together with your existing control at Open-Mesh.com. Soon, you'll be able to migrate all your network settings and infromation from Open-Mesh to an Orangemesh server with just a click of a button.
• Completely Open Source: Change anything you want. Help build the final piece necessary for a completely open-source and affordable mesh network.
• Customizable checkin script: Have access to every configuration option available in ROBIN. Make those pesky custom /config changes outlast the next firmware update.
• Advanced Community Features: (currently in development) Make real, organic, community mesh networks. Empower non-administrators and give your users a stake in the network -- if you want to!
• Coming soon: Improved Google Maps status view, custom CSS skins (in 0.2a!), advanced node management! Stay tuned!
