babycakes writes "Interesting article over at the BBC about the future of wireless networks. Researchers at Intel are developing mesh networking technology that automatically organizes the best routes between wireless devices for better bandwidth control, now that the number of wireless devices is set to explode." Neat stuff, but they've yet to implement any sort of security controls. Until they do, it's going to be a real party for wireless eavesdroppers. timothy adds: La Camiseta writes "Wired has an article discussing the extent that some people will go to in order to stay connected. My favorite is their 4-way SMP system that fits into a briefcase."

      If they're all working for the same task, like distributed compiling, or just running the same OS, then I think it can be called SMP. If it's just 4 redundant servers, I'd say not.

Unless there is some way of authentication in the mesh (so that only authenticated devices can participate), it would need some trust/rating system so devices can exchange information about the reliability of other devices...

        You should be using encryption at the software level, and the data level, not the hardwire level. Software level encryption and data level encryption can be changed on a daily basis. hardware level security is permanent and once broken you can toss your foolish devices in the toilet.

      The following papers address many of the issues:

Several approaches either use a centralized authority or require secure hardware at each node.

      We should probably note that the a wireless, redundant "mesh" design was part of the ARPA project from the beginning. A lot of old-timers are somewhat disappointed that it's 40 years later, and we still don't have it.

      You can see an example in the first diagram at this historical article [cybergeography.org]. Note that the diagram dates to 1964, and the text mentions a "communications network that would survive a major enemy attacked" [sic].

      Many of the earliest diagrams of the ARPAnet showed planes, ships, plus all sorts of mobile ground vehicles, with wireless random-looking connections. Again, this was 40 years ago.

      Another interesting bit of history: The earliest ARPAnets were mostly on Ethernet. This is a curious term. Why would they use it for a length of coax cable? The reason was that the intention was that it be wireless, with packets being sent "throuh the ether". The wired version was just a temporary kludge until they could get the wireless version working. "Ethernet" was chosen as an unsubtle hint as to what was considered the real packet medium. It was clumsy, limited and kludgey, but the wires were only supposed to be a temporary medium, to be phased out in a few years.

      It's been 40 years, and we're still not there ...

    I have to assume those are the 800mhz versions from the CPU fan, but still, these things have very little power from my experience with them. Cool little toys, maybe enough for a low-end workstation or terminal, but I wouldnt think of using one in a server situation.

      it was outperformed by the P200/MMX I wanted to replace.

      That seems like a rather extreme case, and probably more to do with memory than with the actual processor. On most applications, using similar memory/bus technology, the VIA will come in only a little behind an Intel or AMD processor at the same clock rate. On the measure of "MIPS per milliwatt" it will come out way ahead, and that often matters even more. This is not a platform designed for raw performance. It's designed to balance performance with other factors, and does it quite well.

      Why cluster 4 of those? I'd think a 2 gig Celeron (of course P4 would be preferred) would have more power, faster DDR Ram, be as cheap (if not cheaper).

      Also more power required, more heat, and more space. The nice thing about the Eden boards is that they do well in those three areas, which are more important in this application than raw computes, and yet they run everything that those hotter, more power-hungry processors plugged into bigger motherboards do. There are four of them because this is the sort of application where more slower processors provide benefits that fewer faster ones would not.

      My quibble is not that they went with Eden, but that they didn't get the ME6000 which can run fanless. BTW, that board supports DDR SDRAM, so for a memory-bandwidth-bound application such as your squid server it would probably do quite well (assuming that the app isn't poorly coded to use more CPU cycles than necessary).

      Disclaimer: I do have a VIA-based system (Shuttle SV24) but that's my only association with them. I also happen to know a couple of the Wifi Caravan folks.

If your battery power, as reported through the routing protocol, is low, traffic will be routed somewhere else if possible.

    The problem with security in ad hoc mesh networks built in a cooperative environment* is that you have to worry about who's running the intermediate nodes and whether or not they're doing anything bad with your traffic. Even if you design the wireless link so that non-participants can't sniff your traffic out of the air, the mesh nodes themselves must be secure so that their owners can't snoop on each other. So in the mesh environment, you'll either need to require security to be end-to-end or design a radio that switches packets at a low level and doesn't let traffic passing through to be copied higher into the node OS where it can be snooped. I would opt for the end-to-end security since I can't be sure someone hasn't built a radio that violated a privacy standard.

    (*) By cooperative environment, I'm talking about mesh networks that are built by many independent entities, with each node carrying the traffic of multiple participants. e.g., your laptop participates in a cloud of laptops that ultimately carries all participants' Internet traffic back to an access point somewhere.

    Mesh Routing [waterloowireless.org] links.

    MeshAP/MeshBox from LocustWorld is based on AODV routing module. There are also userspace versions of AODV. Plus there are at least two other competing mesh routing algorithms, and there are other hardware mesh solutions, but MeshAP has a lot going for it.
  • ... Dont let your choice of wireless transport dictate the method and depth of the security (best is large key VPN). Some users will want to use open (unencrypted) traffic. Don't hold up the deployment of the wireless infrastructure waiting for things that should be a part of the node's app stack.
  • Didn't Apple already create a self configuring wireless network? How is this different then rendezvous? Doesn't Apple own patents to this concept, or at least have prior art?
  • This reminds me of something a friend was working on a few years back, hardware that would search for the other like wireless cards in range, and they would self-configure to form a network with all the computers in range, no need for a base station.
    Not high bandwidth, but still interesting. Of course, I haven't seen him since then.
