ALPHA Software, don't use in production
This tool allows an administrator to manage a voucher system to get through the gateway.
It could be used in a community that wants to share an Internet connection and for that the user's pay a fraction each, but needs the payment from everyone. So the vouchers allows to control the payments via the control of the access to Internet.
This are the currently implemented features:
- Runs directly from the OpenWRT/LEDE router: no need for extra hardware
- Integrates it's administration with Ubus
- Has a command-line interface for listing, creating and removing vouchers
- Voucher database is shared among nodes in the network
All planned features are accesible at: https://github.com/libremesh/voucher/issues
This software assumes that will be running on a OpenWRT/LEDE distribution (because uses uci for config). Needs ip6tables-mod-nat and ipset packages installed.
Not clear yet, but would be something like:
- add the libremesh software feed to opkg
- opkg install pirania
- opkg install pirania-app
It uses iptables rules to filter inbound connections outside the mesh network.
