## Padavan custom firmware (The rt-n56u project)

The [rt-n56u project](https://bitbucket.org/padavan/rt-n56u) does not store `dnsmasq.leases` which is used to track devices at `/var/lib/misc/` as `asuswrt` do. However this integration can still be used for the rt-n56u project by linking `dnsmasq.leases` during the boot process of the router.

Follow these steps to setup the link.

1. SSH or Telnet into the router. (default ssh admin@my.router)
2. Run the following command to find the file:

```bash
$ find / -name "dnsmasq.leases"
```
3. Copy or remember the full path of, example: `/tmp/dnsmasq.leases`
4. Create the folder if it does not exist:

```bash
$ mkdir -p /var/lib/misc
```
5. Add the linking process to the routers started script (one line):

```bash
$ echo "/bin/ln -s /tmp/dnsmasq.leases /var/lib/misc/dnsmasq.leases" >> /etc/storage/started_script.sh
```

6. Reboot the router or link the file:

```bash
$ /bin/ln -s /tmp/dnsmasq.leases /var/lib/misc/dnsmasq.leases
```

The started script is also accessible and editable in the Router's web interface. `Advanced Settings -> Customization -> Scripts -> Custom User Script -> Run After Router Started`
The [rt-n56u project](https://bitbucket.org/padavan/rt-n56u) does not store `dnsmasq.leases` which is used to track devices at `/var/lib/misc/` as `asuswrt` do. However this integration can still be used for the rt-n56u project by changing the dnsmasq location using the `dnsmasq` variable to `dnsmasq: '/tmp'`
Also, to get the statistics for the `WAN` port, specify `interface: 'eth3'` as this is the interface used in the rt-n56u project
