[mpls-linux-general] Any advance on integrate rsvp-te in mpls linux?

[J. N. <oc...@gm...>]

Hi all again,

I have been in exams during last months and now I am gonna to go back in my
purpose to integrate RSVP-TE in MPLS-Linux machine to do some proves on it.
I'm wondering if there is any advance on it?

Thanks a lot

Re: [mpls-linux-general] [mpls-linux-devel] Does zebra have multitable support?

[Zaida V. <za...@gm...>]

Do you have any references (links, docs,...) about network namespaces? You
mentioned it before but I haven't been able to find it.

It would be really interesting to take a look at that info, as we have
already proposed two alternatives based on different tables in zebra but we
are not taken into account that project (the one about network namespaces).
It's no sense to implement something that will not work with it at all.

About the two alternatives we were contemplating:

The first one consisted on creating different tables in bgp based on a 'tag'
wich would be associated with a vrf in zebra, and each vrf with a different
socket (netlink) to install the routes in the kernel in separate tables
(FIB). We are still not sure if this is possible (I'll have to investigate
the code a little bit more )


The second solution would be to create different zebra process' one per vrf,
and each of them will be associated with a different socket. The problem
here will be mainly how the one and only bgpd daemon should manage more than
one zebra. Is this a too crazy idea? I mean, having many zebrad at the same
time for different vrfs? Will everything crash?  =)


Note that we came accross this ideas just looking at raw code and have no
idea of how it will get on with what you just said.

I hope I explained myself,

Yeah i am ready to help i am thinking of having one version of linux
kernel as a starting point for MPLS VPN and want to implement VRF
support also for quagga.

Re: [mpls-linux-general] MPLS Session in Linux

[James R. L. <jl...@mi...>]

MPLS BGP VPN support does not exist in quagga.  Many of the components
for it exist, but no work has been done to bring it all together into
one implementation.

If you are willing to help out with the effort I can give you some
guidance.

Re: [mpls-linux-general] Quagga MPLS Problem

[James R. L. <jl...@mi...>]

Just to confirm Adrian's thoughts, the quagga RPM you downloaded is not
MPLS enabled.

To further that, the quagga.diff you are trying to work with is
incredibly old.  If you are determined to use quagga-mpls
you best bet to it use perforce (p4) and pull down the quagga-mpls
and ldp-portable source and use the 'make-rpm-jleu' script in quagga-mpls.

Good luck.

Re: [mpls-linux-general] Quagga MPLS Problem

[Adrian P. <adr...@gm...>]

I'm not qualified to help you with the compile problems, but from what I
remember - the patch requiered you to run some scripts that changed
(somehow) files from /usr/include/linux (or from somewhere near that)...

Please take into consideration that these sources depend on you kernel -
meaning that /usr/include/linux should point (from what I remember) to your
kernel source/include (the kernel you compiled with mpls support).

James can help you more with this.

PS. Have you tried to get the src rpm for the patched quagga? It should be
easier to compile.

Also, please remember that when you compile quagga, you should disable ipv6,
and I couldn't compile it with vtysh...

Cheers,
Adrian

Re: [mpls-linux-general] Quagga MPLS Problem

[Adrian P. <adr...@gm...>]

I'm not 100% certain that the quagga you installed is the patched quagga
version.

Please issue the following commands on you system (as root):

updatedb
locate ldpd

These will search for ldpd - which is a binary file that comes with the
patched quagga. If you have it in a bin directory, you're most likely
running the correct quagga version.

I don't remember if vtysh has the commands used by ldpd, but if it doesn't,
you can start ldpd, bind it to a port ( -P I think), and telnet to that
port, and you will get a shell with the relevant ldp commands.

Good luck!
Adrian

Kernel 2.6.15.1 (Compiled with the MPLS Patches)
IPtables - 1.3.5-1.2.1 (Compiled with the Patches)

I have the following problem after installing quagga rpm i dont get
all the CLIs infact i dont see the LDP binary at all with quagga ? Am
i missing something ?

Kindly help me with a solution

Hello,

[mpls-linux-general] MPLS beginner - A question about seeting basic MPLS lab

[Nguyen A. D. <se...@gm...>]

Hi All,

I'm new to MPLS for Linux and I'm doing my first lab as described in:
http://sourceforge.net/docman/display_doc.php?docid=31116
<http://sourceforge.net/docman/display_doc.php?docid=31116&group_id=15443>
&group_id=15443

For dummy0 I set it as: ifconfig dummy0 add 255.0.0.0 10.0.0.1

 

However, when I complete configuring, I cannot ping from host A to host B
(ping 10.0.0.2).

Anyone who did this lab plz give me your advices (I checked the
configuration twice before posting this letter).

 

Regards,

Dzung.

Re: [mpls-linux-general] Problem while installing iptables

[Adrian P. <adr...@gm...>]

Hello,

It *may* work, but I wouldn't hold my breath. I managed to patch the correct
iptables version on debian (the version the patch was intended for), but I
never managed to get it to compile...

You should try to force install the rpm (rpm --force-all -ivh
iptables*.rpm), because you will have more chances with this approach.
Please note that if you do this, you won't be able to use iptables with the
default kernel, it would work only with 2.6.15.1...

Good luck!

[mpls-linux-general] Problem while installing iptables

[\G\ <bal...@gm...>]

Hi

I ve installed Fedora Core 6 in my system as i dont have Fedora 4 and
5 and ve compiled the kernel version 2.6.15.1 with MPLS enabled. I ve
patched the kernel as given in the tutorial.

The version of iptables installed in Fedora 6 is  as follows

iptables-ipv6-1.3.5-1.2.1
iptables-1.3.5-1.2.1

I am not able to downgrade to iptables-1.3.0 by installing the rpm. So
can i download the version 1.3.5 and patch it ? Will it work ?

Thanks for your help !

Cheers,
Balaji

Re: [mpls-linux-general] Not able to download kernel source for MPLS

[Adrian P. <adr...@gm...>]

Hello,
you can download the kernel from kernel.org and patch it yourself with the
mpls code, and then compile it. From the looks of it what you have there is
a standard kernel image, unpatched. You can get the patched version from
sourceforge (as rpm).

Good luck,
Adrian

Re: [mpls-linux-general] MPLS FEC port

[Adrian P. <adr...@gm...>]

Hello,

To classify packets based on something else than destination IP (like your
case), you need to use iptables/ebtables. So, instead of:
ip route add 129.175.237.24 via 129.175.237.21 mpls $var
you would need to add a iptables rule that uses the $var. Look for examples
in the QoS experiments (e-LSP and l-LSP) for iptables syntax (the matching
there is done based on DSCP, but you can easily match ports instead).

Good luck!
Adrian

[mpls-linux-general] Not able to download kernel source for MPLS

[\G\ <bal...@gm...>]

Hi

I am not able to download the kernel source code from the following location.
  ftp://ftp.roedunet.lkams.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/linux-2.6.15.1.tar.bz2

Should i download the code only from the above path or can i just
download 2.6.15.1 from kernel.org ?

Cheers,

I would like to know this as well. I am going to be deploying Quagga
onto a Zeroshell server. For BGP/OSPF and hopefully MPLS.

As would I.

Check out www.netkit.org for some useful UML/quagga stuff.

[mpls-linux-general] MPLS Session in Linux

[\G\ <bal...@gm...>]

Hi

I would like to know with Mpls-linux package is it possible to use a
linux box as a Provider Edge router ? I would like to test a basic BGP
MPLS VPN setup with Quagga. Is it possible ? if someone has done it
before, it would be really helpful if some one could share some steps
for the same.


Has anyone tried using this with User Mode Linux ?

Balaji
