It is very important for us to stress test our equipment because we can never know how many people are going to connect to our network and we need to know how to prepare for every situation.

For that reason we are logging every data necessary to run our mesh network at full strength and find any weaknesses that could arise and cause the network to slow down or break. That is a big problem because in crisis situations it is very important that everything works as planned.

For logging our data we use custom made scripts that record the number of users, data usage and bandwidth and send all of that data to a server running InfluxDB (used for recording time sensitive data) and Grafana for the representation of the data. We also have a dedicated page that is much simpler and accessible to everyone else to see the data in real time.

In the pictures included you can see some of the data that we gather and a screenshot of our page for representing the data.
