Hi Everyone,

   Please answer, which is Wi-Fi Standard used by MIninet-WiFi in the "meshAP.py" example program?

Request a fast reply from anyone who is kind enough, Thank you.

Sorry, I was asking about which among the following is used by " meshAP.py" program, 802.11a: Up to 54 Mbps 

802.11b: Up to 11 Mbps 

802.11g: Up to 54 Mbps 

802.11n: Up to 600 Mbps 

802.11ac: Up to several Gbps

802.11ax (Wi-Fi 6): Up to 9.6 Gbps

802.11p: Up to 27 Mbps. Please specify. I want to find the maximum throughput (theoretical) of the network.

The mac80211 subsystem uses IEEE 802.11s!

Thank you so much !!!

According to my knowledge, IEEE 802.11s defines how mesh networking should work on top of existing 802.11 standards, the actual throughput will be determined by the underlying 802.11 standard being used and the conditions of the mesh network. If you know the specific underlying standard and the mesh network’s configuration, you can make more accurate throughput estimates.

Ramon, Can you please tell the specific underlying standard and the mesh network’s configuration, so that I can make more accurate throughput estimates. 

The Mesh network topology I have created have 10 wireless stations and five access points. Following is the script, 

 from mininet.node import Controller, RemoteController 

from mininet.log import setLogLevel, info 

from mn_wifi.link import wmediumd, mesh 

from mn_wifi.cli import CLI from mn_wifi.net import Mininet_wifi 

from mn_wifi.wmediumdConnector import interference 

 def topology(): "Create a network." net = Mininet_wifi(link=wmediumd, wmediumd_mode=interference) info("*** Creating nodes\n") sta1 = net.addStation('sta1', mac='00:00:00:00:00:11', position='1,1,0') sta2 = net.addStation('sta2', mac='00:00:00:00:00:12', position='31,11,0') sta3 = net.addStation('sta3', mac='00:00:00:00:00:13', position='1,31,0') sta4 = net.addStation('sta4', mac='00:00:00:00:00:14', position='31,31,0') sta5 = net.addStation('sta5', mac='00:00:00:00:00:15', position='11,21,0') sta6 = net.addStation('sta6', mac='00:00:00:00:00:16', position='21,21,0') sta7 = net.addStation('sta7', mac='00:00:00:00:00:17', position='1,11,0') sta8 = net.addStation('sta8', mac='00:00:00:00:00:18', position='31,11,0') sta9 = net.addStation('sta9', mac='00:00:00:00:00:19', position='11,31,0') sta10 = net.addStation('sta10', mac='00:00:00:00:00:1A', position='21,31,0') ap1 = net.addAccessPoint('ap1', wlans=2, ssid='ssid1', position='10,10,0') ap2 = net.addAccessPoint('ap2', wlans=2, ssid='ssid2', position='30,10,0') ap3 = net.addAccessPoint('ap3', wlans=2, ssid='ssid3', position='20,20,0') ap4 = net.addAccessPoint('ap4', wlans=2, ssid='ssid4', position='10,30,0') ap5 = net.addAccessPoint('ap5', wlans=2, ssid='ssid5', position='30,30,0') c0 = net.addController(name='c0', controller=RemoteController, ip='127.0.0.1', port=6653) info("*** Configuring wifi nodes\n") net.configureWifiNodes() info("*** Associating Stations\n") net.addLink(sta1, ap1) net.addLink(sta2, ap1) net.addLink(sta3, ap2) net.addLink(sta4, ap2) net.addLink(sta5, ap3) net.addLink(sta6, ap3) net.addLink(sta7, ap4) net.addLink(sta8, ap4) net.addLink(sta9, ap5) net.addLink(sta10, ap5) net.addLink(ap1, intf='ap1-wlan2', cls=mesh, ssid='mesh-ssid', channel=5) net.addLink(ap2, intf='ap2-wlan2', cls=mesh, ssid='mesh-ssid', channel=5) net.addLink(ap3, intf='ap3-wlan2', cls=mesh, ssid='mesh-ssid', channel=5) net.addLink(ap4, intf='ap4-wlan2', cls=mesh, ssid='mesh-ssid', channel=5) net.addLink(ap5, intf='ap5-wlan2', cls=mesh, ssid='mesh-ssid', channel=5) info("*** Starting network\n") net.build() c0.start() ap1.start([c0]) ap2.start([c0]) ap3.start([c0]) ap4.start([c0]) ap5.start([c0]) info("*** Running CLI\n") CLI(net) info("*** Stopping network\n") net.stop() if __name__ == '__main__': setLogLevel('info') topology()

It's been a while since I worked with 802.11s but I think it uses 2.4GHz by default and 11g as a consequence. I suggest you to go through the ma80211 stack as well as the open80211s consortium for more detailed information.

Hi Ramon, Thanks, I will.

Hi guys ,

Has anyone added the bridge interface to the mininet Switch ? Please assist me.
