Hello All, I am working on using UML and the LEAF Bering Small Footprint Linux Distribution to create a virtual routing environment. I have read through the networking documentation but I am still unsure of some of the capabilities. Here are a few questions that I have come up with. Can you create a connection between two UML Instances without the the use of UML_Switch or tying them to the host system. This configuration for example: ---[uml-router1]-- | | [uml-router2] [uml-router3] | | ---[uml-router4]-- Is it possible to run multiple instances of UML_Switch. This configuration for example: [uml-router1] | [uml-switch1] / \ [uml-router2] [uml-router3] \ / [uml-switch2] | [uml-router4] Thanks in advance, Eric Kiser |

You can either do; 1) uml_switch 2) bridged tap devices 3) multicast I'm not sure what you mean by 'tying them to the host system' though. > Is it possible to run multiple instances of UML_Switch. Sure - I do that. Just give them different socket filenames as the '-unix' switch. David -- David Coulson http://davidcoulson.net/ d...@vi... http://journal.davidcoulson.net/ |

David, Thanks for getting back to me so quickly. This was just the information that I was looking for. I think that I misunderstood the usage of the -unix switch. I will definitely reread that section.

I will definitely reread that section. Not a problem - I found the best documentation for uml_switch was uml_switch.c :-) David -- David Coulson http://davidcoulson.net/ d...@vi... http://journal.davidcoulson.net/ |
