Node Manager - Community IP/Name Management - Summary
This project is not part of the GNU Project.
This application helps resolve IP-address and DNS name management issues for community wireless networks.
Currently, many individuals are offering wireless (typcally 802.11b) network access via their own "access points", called "nodes". Groups of "node owners" are now linking their nodes together to form community networks that provide free wireless network access. This means that a certain amount of administration is required in order to coordinate IP address allocation (for both the client networks, and the backbone links) and naming conflicts. This software helps resolve that issue.

However, the need is arising to support several groups at the same time, which means more IP pools, and more administration/management.
