This program displays information coming from a PAN, using direct access 
(as accessing the IPv6 SNMP sensors), or by requesting the data from a database.

Presently supported data types are:

 -- Temperature and humididty
 -- Direction
 -- Acceleration
 -- GPS
 -- Chat messages

The application can run in three modes:

 -- Server: does SNMP requests and saves them in the database 
    (this mode requires special access to the database and is 
     only used on Nautilus6's server).
 -- SNMPClient: gets the data directly with SNMP requests to the sensors 
    (default mode, requires IPv6 connectivity).
 -- DBClient: gets the data from the database 
    (the mode which will be used in the demo applet).
 -- XML (not yet implemented): like SNMPClient, but gets the session data 
    from an XML file instead of DB (for closed demonstrations).

Tow interfaces are already implemented:

 -- One standard, 900x630, that can be used command-line or in an applet.
 -- One that can be used on a computer inside the PAN, 700x500, with special 
    features for PAN management.

Why do we use a database (FYI, we use PostgreSQL 7.4 database, which works in IPv6) ?

 -- Only one instance of the application connecting to the PAN, useful if 
    low-bandwidth connectivity.
 -- Easy central session administration.
 -- People without IPv6 connectivity can still follow the demonstrations.
 -- We can keep the gathered data for further study.

You need JAVA (>= 1.4) runtime environment installed on your system.
If you are using Windows, the Microsoft Java Virtual Machine (installed by default 
with Internet Explorer) does not work properly with the Applet version of this 
application, you need to install the SUN JVM and reboot your computer.

-- To run the application, type from its installation directory "java -jar MonNemo.jar".

By default, the application runs in SNMPClient mode, and displays information 
about the first valid session it finds on the database, using default login and 
password (only giving reading rights).
You can modify the default behavior with the command line:

  --mode=mode, where mode can be in {server, snmp, db}
  --gui=gui, where gui can be in {none, ebike, vaio}
  --user=user_name and --password=password to change the access user to the database.
  --session=id to display a specific session.
  --update=n to update the sensor information every n seconds, overwriting this 
    session's default frequency (impossible in DBClient mode).
  --url=db to change the URL of the database.
  --ipv6only if you are in an IPv6-only network.
  --overwrite, if you want the server only to keep the last value in the database.

mode, please refer to http://demo.nautilus6.org/.
