NetPi Network Analyzer, Mark III
Based on original work first by BlameTheNetwork and later expanded by ITSaDC.
Background
It turns out, the Raspberry Pi makes a handy device for quick and dirty network testing. You don't need to shell out thousands of dollars on <NAMEBRAND> equipment, you can get basic connectivity testing for well under $100 with just a little hardware and open-source software. Standing on the shouldres of the aforementioned giants who started putting this together in 2015, I've made my own modifications and am sharing them here.
What I'm bringing to the table
My contributions in this fork are:
- updating the file structure so that everything can be consolidated in one location (ie
/opt
) - updating scripts so they work using current Raspbian tools
- adding scripts for improved functionality
- adding documentation to get up and running easily
- refactoring php files to improve modularity
- improving display layout to make it more readily scalable
- clean out deprecated scripts
Please see the wiki for details on implementation, installation, and configuration.
