[mpls-linux-general] 2 mall patches for ldpd

[Eran M. <er...@nb...>]

Hi,
The first patch below fixes FEC prefix encoding (well, at least for me).
The second fixes an informational printf.
(the patches are against the CVS tree with the message length patch 
from http://www.geocrawler.com/archives/3/7968/2001/4/0/5654868/
applied).

[mpls-linux-general] Kernel Panic with TCP flows.

[Marcello E. <mes...@un...>]

Hi all,

I'm triyng to reproduce the example described in utils/README.example file. 
Once configured both hosts successfully, if I try to send a TCP flow from 
one host to another, the source host hangs up with a "kernel panic" message.

This doesn't happen with ICMP or UDP packets. I have Linux RedHat 7.0 on 
both hosts with 2.4.2 patched kernel version.

Could someone help me?

Thanks a lot,
Marcello Esposito.

[mpls-linux-general] question about /proc/net/.. files

[yu-xiao j. <yx...@ho...>]

Hi, James

I can see the mpls label with Ethereal when I setup the label in each 
router. But the questions is why the size of the files (/proc/net/mpls_in, 
mpls_out, mpls_fec...) is 0. when I open these files, nothing is there. I 
have choosen the support the proc file system.

Another questions : after I finished one experiment. I want to set up 
different label in the same router. So I need to delete the old label first, 
then setup the new label. My operation is:

mplsadm -v -A -B -O gen:16:eth0:ipv4:10.1.0.1 -f 10.2.1.10/32   (setup the 
label)

mplsadm -v -D -B -O gen:16:eth0:ipv4:10.1.0.1 -f 10.2.1.10/32   (delete the 
label)

each time I need to change the "-A" to "-D". Is there any easy way to delete 
the label. Or How can I make sure the label is deleted completely. Is it ok 
just delete the file (mpls_in...).

thanks in advance,


jenny Jia

[mpls-linux-general] question about skbuff

[Yan, X. Q. (Rex) <re...@lu...>]

Hi James,
I'm going to add some features into your mpls-linux code for our research
use.
I am confused with mpls_opcode_pop() and mpls_opcode_push().

In mpls_opcode_pop()
Why do you need to shift the skb->h.raw and skb->nh.raw? My understanding is
that all the L3/L4 headers remain in the same address, We do not need to
shift skb->h.raw and skb->nh.raw
====================from mpls_opcode.c=======
...
skb_pull(skb, sizeof(u32));
skb->h.raw += sizeof(u32);
skb->nh.raw += sizeof(u32);
...
==========================================
in mpls_opcode_push()
...
/*if we have room between data and end of mac.raw*/
skb->push(o,sizeof(u32));
o->h.raw -= sizeof(u32);
o->nh.raw -= sizeof(u32);
...
/*if we have tailroom, just move the data down...*/
/* My understanding is YOU NEED TO ADJUST ALL TH POINTERS HERE IN THIS CASE
*/
....

I'm new to linux kernel, maybe its a very stupid question.
Thanks in advance.

[mpls-linux-general] Kernel to user space communication.

[Raman S <wea...@ya...>]

Hi all,
     I hope the cross posting is OK.
     The Zebra routing protocol uses netlink sockets
to communicate routing update needs to the Kernel.  
What would be the best way for the Kernel to
communicate info back to any user space module. It 
appears that Netlink does not provide a command that
the user space module can use to say something like,
"let me know if an event happens at your end" or is
there.
    If I understand it correctly the recvmsg in Zebra
is used for getting back error reports for which there
are standard messages defined in Netlink sockets.
    
     In particular, if LDP module is to use the
routing table which Zebra updates, could the Kernel
communicate to the LDP module each time Zebra updates
the kernel routing table.

    Would appreciate the guidance.... 

Thanks much.
Raman

Re: [mpls-linux-general] Linux-LDP configuration

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

Hello,

LDP tries to map your layer 3 topology (reachability) to LSPs.  So if
you can't ping a destination before enabling LDP, LDP can not create an
LSP to that destination.

In your network every LDP speaker needs to have EXACT routes to:
-10.0.1.0/24
-10.0.2.0/24
-10.0.3.0/24
-10.0.4.0/24

Make sure to upgrade to the most recent mpls-linux (0.990) as well.

Jim

[mpls-linux-general] Linux-LDP configuration

[Yvan P. <yv...@vi...>]

Hi,

I would like to try the Linux LDP implementation but I can t make it work.
There has been some discussion on this list about it lately so I hope
somebody will be able to help me...

Here is my topology:

Note: I use networks 10.0.x/24 (x=1..4).

10.0.1.2                                                         10.0.4.3
   | eth2                                                           | eth2
   |                                                                |
   | eth2                                                           | eth2
10.0.1.3 LER A 10.0.2.2----10.0.2.3 LSR 10.0.3.2----10.0.3.3 LER B 10.0.4.2
                eth3         eth3         eth4         eth4


LER A, LER B and LSR are (obviously) MPLS-enabled, but 10.0.1.2 and
10.0.4.3 are just regular BSD, MPLS-unaware, workstations.

I installed MPLS for Linux 0.700 (kernel 2.4.0-test11) and can monitor
MPLS encapsulation thanks to ethereal on one of the MPLS-enabled machines.
To do this, I set up the LSPs manually.

Now, I would like LDP to set up the paths for me. I use the last version
of ldp-linux (grabbed with CVS), I do not use zebra but the linux-port
version compiled with -DMPLS_LINUX.

On LER A:               On LSR:                 On LER B:
add global 10.0.1.3     add global 10.0.2.3     add global 10.0.4.2
add interface eth3      add interface eth3      add interface eth4
                        add interface eth4


Now I still have traffic between 10.0.1.2 and 10.0.4.3 but it does not use
any MPLS LSP, just static routing.
When I cat the /proc mpls files on any MPLS router, only mpls_in is not
empty.

What can I do to get the expected result, ie get linux-LDP set an LSP
between LER A and LER B (and LER B to LER A) ?

This is a very simple topology so I hope that someone already tried it.

Any help deeply appreciated,

 Yvan Pointurier

Not much is changing with the IPV4 code in 2.4.x (so far :-).  I keep my
local repository upto date with the 2.4 series.  I try to release a new
version when I have lots of bug fixes or I get reports that the MPLS patch
isn't clean.

Ethereal supports MPLS.  Just expand on one of the captures packets and
the MPLS shim should be right there.

Hey,

I am wondering how could be managed a project like the mpls support for 
Linux. I mean, how could you follow the mainline of the Kernel ?

For example, the diff file is based on linux 2.4.2, then there are a couple 
of "hunks" when it is applied to linux 2.4.4

[mpls-linux-general] Can't find the ethernet card

[yu-xiao j. <yx...@ho...>]

Hi everybody,

I first installed red hat7.0 (kernel version 2.2.16)in my router, then I 
download new kernel 2.4.2, after compile the new kernel, when I reboot, the 
system give the error message" Bring up interface eth0: Delaying eth0 
initialized [failed]". So when I use" ifconfig" command, it can not find my 
ethernet card. I am not sure what's the problem. My ethernet card is SMC EZ 
Card 10M/100M. Do the kernel 2.4.2 have the driver for that? My another 
router use 3Com 509 ethernet card. it meet same problem. Is there somebody 
have the same problem?

thanks for reply

Re: [mpls-linux-general] CR-LDP source code

Hi James,

Thanks for your prompt answer.

Well, I just want to know if it is possible to apply CR-LDP to your MPLS
implementation. However, since I myself haven't tried it yet (I just saw that
the CR-LDP codes exist), so I wonder if someone has already done it and he maybe
could share his experiences to me.

I think in general people are confused as to what the CR-LDP code from
Nortel does.  I encode and decodes packets.  There is not a state machine
or and notion of LDP peers.  It is simply a utility to encode and
decode packets. (it is very good at it's intended use :-)

I have begun some work to add CR-LDP support.  There is atleast on one
other party that is doing some work on it as well.  In all actuallity it
shouldn't be that hard to add CR-LDP support.

I'm not sure if I understand your question.  If I haven't answered it please
try to re-phrase it.

Thanks,
Jim

[mpls-linux-general] CR-LDP source code

[Victorianus K. <Vic...@ms...>]

Dear all,

Concerning the Sourceforge's MPLS implementation under Linux, I have
noticed that the Nortel's CR-LDP source code had been added in the
ensemble of the LDP portable's source code. My question is, is it really
integrated ? I mean can we apply it to the MPLS implementation like the
LDP portable ? Has someone tried this ?

Many thanks in advance and any reply will be much appreciated.

Best regards,

[mpls-linux-general] How can I know MPLS work?

[yu-xiao j. <yx...@ho...>]

Hi James,

I have setup a small MPLS domain in our lab for testing the implementation 
using your mpls-linux.
            /---LSR1---\
Host1--- LER1           LER2 --- Host2
            \---LSR2---/

I have two question:
1. Since Tcpdump and Ethereal can not see the label, How can I know the 
packet forward is based on IP or MPLS. I mean how can I know whether MPLS 
work or not even though I setup the label using mplsadm in each router.
2.When I setup a mpls testbed. it is a small LAN. In each router I confige 
static routing table to make sure each node can ping each other in this 
local network. Then when I use mplsadm, Do I need to add "route add......" 
command? In the future, I need to use ldp-portable to dynamic setup the 
path. So question is " IP can have static and dynamin routing table, MPLS 
can static or dynamic setup the path, which is the best way to test the mpls 
implementation?"

thanks in advance,
looking forward to you reply,


Jenny (yuxiao)
