Hm, OLSR use plugins to deliver this information. For exmaple plugin
'nameserice'
https://github.com/servalproject/olsr/blob/master/lib/nameservice/README_NAMESERVICE
where we have all  information about Node name, lat lon position etc which
very useful to
show nodes on the maps etc.. Every node have stored in separate files this
information
/var/run/hosts_oslrd where we have:

 ### this /etc/hosts file is overwritten regularly by olsrd
### do not edit

127.0.0.1 localhost
::1 localhost

44.165.33.254 SP2PMK-club.ampr.org # myself
44.165.33.253 SP2PMK-lnk1.ampr.org # 44.165.33.253
44.165.33.1 SP2PMK.ampr.org # 44.165.33.1

or /var/run/latlon.js where is position, ip, end ETX

This file is useful to create information on the map with color line
according to value of ETX.

In BABAEL we can use color of line use value RXCosts ??? or other ?

You can see example

Most for outdoor routers like UBNT Nanostation M2, m5, Bullet etc or
WA5210G which we use don't have USB and
and they have  8MB Flash or for example home router which  we use like
WR740 have only 4 Mb flash and don't have USB.
For this reason I am asking about possibility get information via nc or
telnet and use AWK, etc shell command to create tables on
www page like I do with OLSRD. You cna see simple and useful WWW status
page on example our hamradio network

http://89.76.153.162:8080/cgi-bin/netmesh

I have use http server busybox and LUA to create this page and get
information form OLSR by nc command.
OLSR offer full information about topology, routers, neighbors via TXT or
JASON format which is very nice to
use to create HTML page
