Ubnt Nanostation 5 loco Notes

Device data sheet: http://www.ubnt.com/downloads/loco5_datasheet.pdf

After reading http://wiki.openwrt.org/about/history I'm going to try and get this installed and running: http://downloads.openwrt.org/backfire/10.03.1-rc4/atheros/ ( which file(s) do I choose? )

openwrt install instructions: http://wiki.openwrt.org/doc/howto/installing

nanostation specific install instructions: http://wiki.openwrt.org/toh/ubiquiti/nanostation

The file I want from above is: openwrt-atheros-ubnt5-squashfs.bin

one of the reqs for instaling openwrt is a copy of the nanostation firmware. get that from here http://www.ubnt.com/support/downloads

Had AirOS 3.3.2 installed. Latest is 3.6.1.

Wow that was easy. (compared to the wrt54g v6 dd-wrt flash processes.)

  • put options in dnsmaq.conf dns and router
  • installed syslog-ng and sent log message away
  • added static route on cydonia and router to 192.168.20.0/24 ( 192.168.1.20 (mummu) )
  • bssid: 02:b4:55:00:ca:fe

syslog-ng config


options {
        chain_hostnames(off);
        sync(0);

        # The default action of syslog-ng 1.6.0 is to log a STATS line
        # to the file every 10 minutes.  That's pretty ugly after a while.
        # Change it to every 12 hours so you get a nice daily update of
        # how many messages syslog-ng missed (0).
        stats(43200);
};

source src { unix-stream("/dev/log"); internal(); };
source kernel { file("/proc/kmsg" ); };

# destination messages { file("/var/log/messages"); };
destination messages { file("/tmp/messages"); };
destination d_tcp { tcp("192.168.1.64" port(514)); };

# log { source(src); destination(messages); };

log {
        source(src);
        source(kernel);
        destination(d_tcp);
        destination(messages);
};
