Node certification

The Idea behind this is so we can get some form of quality control on our node setups. From wind to routerOS configuration. There are a lot of variances on how we do things, and hopefully we can come to a obvious and logical setup. It must also be functional.

Software Section

DNS Names

• Routerboards must be named in sequency as rb, rb2, rb3, ect
  • This means that if you have one routerboard it would be called rb.node.ctwug.za.net, if you have another it would be called rb2.node.ctwug.za.net
• OSPF link names Must be in the format of 'link-remotenodename.localnodename.ctwug.za.net'
• Network and Broadcast IPs must be filled in aswell. For example network.thefox.ctwug.za.net and broadcast.thefox.ctwug.za.net
• All IPS should be given a DNS name, those without hosts on, should be called unusedX where the X is an increasing number starting with 1.

RouterOS Config

General Setup

• Identity should be the node name with an optional router type/number following.
  • example1: Cervantes-RB433
  • example2: Ironman-RB4

Interfaces

• Comments should be in the form of a;b;c

Where A is the interfaec, bb or client, B is the speed the queue should be, ex: 128, 512, 1024, and C is the rest of the comment.

• • example1: bb;1024;TheFox-Mammon-link
  • example2: client;512;Mammon-Sektor
