Lunced¶

About¶

Lunced is an OpenWrt daemon written in Lua for the NC tool of the Confine OC2 project. It provides information to the NC web user interface about the node itself via Ubus and other nodes in the network using JSON over HTTP.

Requirements¶

Lunced needs the libubox-lua package, available from OpenWrt Barrier Breaker 14.07 on, and iperf3, available on OpenWrt trunk and backported to qMp Clearance 3.1. You can install it on your node by typing:

opkg update
opkg install libubox-lua iperf3

Installation¶

Copy the contents of the packages/lunced/files folder to the / on your device. Then enable the daemon (/etc/init.d/lunced enable) and start it (/etc/init.d/lunced start).
