Abstract

This paper aims to present MeshDVNet, a Wireless Mesh Network (WMN)test-bed designed, built, and deployed by the LIP6 laboratory of Université Paris VI. MeshDVNet uses Wireless Mesh Routers (WMR), called MeshDVBox, which have been built using commercial components and open source software. On this platform, routing is performed by MeshDV, our custom routing framework, designed to take full advantage of WMNs' architecture. MeshDVBoxes are able to form a mesh backbone while performing also gateway advertising and natively integrating clients' mobility management.
