IBR-DTN

This implementation of the bundle protocol [RFC5050] is designed for embedded systems like the RouterBoard 532A or Ubiquiti RouterStation Pro and can be used as framework for DTN applications.

The module-based architecture with miscellaneous interfaces, makes it possible to change functionalities like routing or storage of bundle just by inheriting a specific class.

All documentation, downloads, source-code is available on Github.
