⚙️ Configuration Guide

Simulation Parameters

{
  "nodes": 12,
  "protocol": "RPL",
  "power_budget": "50mW",
  "failure_sim": true,
  "metrics": ["throughput", "latency", "battery_life"]
}
  • Simulate node failures to test mesh redundancy mechanisms
  • Adjust power budgets to simulate energy constraints

Command Line Setup

ackclub init iot-mesh
cd iot-mesh
ackclub configure --protocol=RPL --nodes=12

Tip: Use the --visualize flag to launch the network topology viewer

📊 Performance Metrics

Network Resilience

99.78% redundancy in mesh connections during simulated node outages

Average Latency

23.75ms under 12-node configuration

Energy Efficiency

54% of nodes remain operational after 10,000 simulated seconds

💻 Configuration Example


< span class="text-green-600"># Configuration for LoRaWAN mesh network
ackcluster configure {
  topology: "mesh",
  nodes: 12,
  protocol: "RPL",
  energy_profile: {
    capacity: "50mW",
    recharge: "300s"
  },
  simulation: {
    duration: "10000s",
    events: [
      { "node_failure": 3 /** random nodes **/ }
    ]
  }
}

This configuration will automatically create a fully self-healing mesh with energy-aware routing decisions. Modify the node failure event count to test different redundancy scenarios.
