[mpls-linux-general] Mpls for Linux 1.126

[ncc49a <nc...@si...>]

Hi,

  Downloaded the latest patch from the CVS. However, when I 
tried to bind a label to an FEC, an error occurred that 
the -f instruction is no longer supported.

  How then to bind to an FEC? Is the instruction set for 
marking of EXP bits from DSCP same as the 1.108 version?

  Thanks!

[mpls-linux-general] Question about Data structure of Ldp-portable

[Cheng Z. <che...@ya...>]

Hi,All,
  In my reading the codes of ldp-portable-0.060,I was
puzzled by some data structure.I need your help.
1. what does ldp_fs(FS) refer to?
2. what do the
ldp_entity,ldp_adj,ldp_session,ldp_addr,ldp_attr
mean?In RFC 3036,I can not find the defination and
purpose of entity,attr.To me,these structures are too
complex.
what is the relationship among them?I read the
document "ldp_struct",but I still do know what is the
purpose of them,do we need so many structure to
implement ldp?
  Thanks for your reply.

Best Regard 

Cheng

Well, you are right that there isn't a direct correlation but what I'm
anticipating is that, in future there will be more protocols supported in
Zebra (eg., ISIS http://isisd.sourceforge.net/) and possibly RSVP someday.
That way, the mpls-linux developer community may get help from developers of
other packages and as Zebra also has a significant number of users, more
feedback/users of mpls-linux may be found. These are some of my thoughts and
not facts that I can assert in anycase.

Re: [mpls-linux-general] use of *arg in mpls_netlink

I think some protocols register some data to be sent in with each of the
netlink calls.  Netlink will sent this data in via the (void*).
MPLS doesn't need netlink to hold any data for it. So we do not use the (void*).

Since all of the netlink functions must match the netlink prototype
I have no choice but to have the (void*) argument.

mpls-linux-1.0 works on 2.4.13.

the beta mpls-linux-1.126 works on 2.4.17.  This is VERY beta code and
contains LOTs of changes (for instance you use iptables to bind a FEC
to an LSP :-)  The only way to get the beta is to grab the correct versio=
n
from the mpls-linux CVS (i think the tag is mpls-linux_1_126)

Yes you will need to compile the kernel.  You do not need
to do a 'make modules'  but you do need to install the kernel once it's
compiled.

If you plan to do lots of modification of the kernel, I suggest looking i=

Re: [mpls-linux-general] Integration with Zebra?

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

I'm working on a mplsd for zebra.  So far I'm concentrating on 'static'
LSPs and MPLS tunnel interfaces.  Basically I want to provide all of the
functionality of mplsadm in zebra.

Eventual I would like to do more integration.  Yon created a zebra
porting layer for ldp-portable.  After 'static' LSP support is finished I
plan to move on to finishing the LDP support for zebra.  Once that is in place
I can try and make BGP and LDP work together to establish MPLS VPNs.
That is a long way off though, simply because I don't have enough time.

Although if people were will to help ....  :-)

Can you elaborate on that please? How does a tight integration of
mpls-linux and zebra facilitate the implementation of a MPLS signaling
daemon compared to using mpls-linux and (rt)netlink separately in the
daemon.

[mpls-linux-general] Integration with Zebra?

[Sanjeev C. <Sa...@co...>]

Hi Folks,

Since mpls-linux code is fairly robust, I was wondering if there are any
thoughts of integrating it with other open source routing protocol suite
like Zebra. To me both the software are complementary. Some of the pros and
cons:

pros:
1. mpls-linux will be more versatile
2. creation of VPNs will now be possible
3. use of BGP to exchange labels needed in case of VPNs would be possible
4. RSVP-TE or other extensions of MPLS would be easier to implement

cons:
1. kinda vendor specific (Cisco like) implementation
2. some dependency may arise

look forward to hearing your comments,

mpls-linux is an MPLS forwarding plane implementation.  It contains
kernel code to support label switching of packets.  It also has a
utility to statically create LSPs (like the good old days of creating PVCs
through and ATM network, or statically routing a subnet through a network)

If you want a dynamic means to setup LSPs (which is what it seems you are
about) you need an MPLS signaling protocol like LDP, RSVP-TE, or CR-LDP.
The protocols take care of advertising labels. ldp-portable is an
implementation of RFC3036 (label ditribution protocol).

This structure is used to help in the handling of buffers used for
displaying the content of the virtual files in the /proc file system.
'pos' stands for 'position', the current printing position in the
virtual file.  Remember that the virtual file may be larger then the
buffer suplied to the *_print functions, so the *_print function will be
called multiple times, with a different offset each time.  '*_print' can't
translate offset into 'where it left off' so the function just starts over,
but the 'pos' and 'offset' are used to decide when to start filling
the buffer again.

appreciate your help very much.
1.In the mpls_linux,How do the labels are distributed
among the ldp peers?In other words,How does the
mplsadm get to know the infor about FTN,ILM and NHLFE?
What is the relation between mpls_linux and
ldp_portable?Does mpls_linux need ldp_portable to
distribut lables?

Try this:
make clean
make

If you have the same error,
recompile the kernel with support for .out binaries and MISC binaries and
ELF binaries
U can find them in <general setup> tag
With the new kernel go to ldp-portable folder again and:
make clean
make

If (
Is your /usr/src/linux a symlink to /usr/src/linux-2.4.13 ??
And /usr/include/linux(asm) to /usr/src/linux/include/linux(asm)
)
than get another copy of linux-2.4.13
else create the symlinks

[mpls-linux-general] A problem

[farahmand z. <z_c...@ya...>]

Hi all,
I want to compile mpls-linux and LDP-portabel and I 
get linux kernel 2.4.13 and I have applied the
mpls-linux patch.
Now I want to configure linux kernel to turn on MPLS,
but I dont underestand what is wrong?!!!
I ran : make menuconfig in linux directory,but there
is an error: 
No such file or directory 
make : *** no rule to make target
'arch/i386/Makefile'.stop.
Thanks your help.
Farahmand.

Hi Farahmand,


Assuming you installed the kernel at /usr/src/linux; 
Please read "README" and "Documentation/Changes". To compile mpls-linux do:

	"# cd /usr/src/linux"
-configure Linux kernel to turn on MPLS (atleast the following)
	"# make menuconfig"
	under "Code maturity level options"
	turn on "Prompt for development and/or incomplete code/drivers"
	under "Networking Options"
	turn on "Kernel/User netlink socket"
	turn on "  Routing messages"
	turn on "Multi-Protocol Label Switching"
	(do other kernel configuration)
-compile and install kernel (insert a floppy disk)
	make dep ; make clean ; make bzImage; make modules; make
modules_install; make bzdisk
-reboot with the floppy diskette inserted
-change directory to mpls-linux-1.0/utils/
-compile mplsadm
	make

Why are you looking for mpls_nhlfe (etc)?  I use differnt names in my
implementation.  Look in linux/include/net/mpls.h to see what I mean.
