Hola!

Desde la universidad del Pais Vasco estamos realizando unas pruebas de
integración MPLS-VRF y para ello usamos nuestro propio kernel compilado y un
entorno virtual con Vnuml. Tal vez te sea más comodo para realizar las
diversas pruebas que lleves a cabo.

Si te interesa informarte sobre como lo hacemos, tenemos 6 escenarios ya
montados y configurados que puedes descargar y utilizar para lo que quieras
independientemente de VRF.

La pagina web es http://det.bi.ehu.es/NQAS/MPLS

------------------
Hi!

In the University of the Basque Country we are doing some tests in order to
mix MPLS-VRF. In order to do that we use our own compiled kernel and a
virtual scenario using Vnuml.

If you are interested on how we do that, we have 6 scenarios ready to be
used that you can download and use. Maybe our scenarios would be useful for
you.

Our website is http://det.bi.ehu.es/NQAS/MPLS

[mpls-linux-general] New to mpls-linux some advices please

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

Hi list,

First of all sorry for my English level, it's not my native language and I
didn't practice for a long...

I am a spanish scholar and I have to investigate the possibility to do a Lab
for testing  MPLS-TE with DiffServ aware in a Linux router environment. I am
completely new on doing routing on linux. I had reading amount of manuals of
MPLS and MPLS-TE and now I'm considering to embark on it. I am trying to
follow this manual (
http://www.elcom.pub.ro/~adrian.popa/mpls-linux/mpls-linux-docs/index.html)
in an Ubunut Gutsy 7.10 distribution and i had an error when recompile the
kernel (I'm trying to fix it, investigating...) but in many other places
I've read that the best distribution to investigate in mpls-linux is Fedora
because it has a native repository for mpls. What do you think about it?  In
case that I need Fedora, wich version would you recommend: a newer or
legacy? Also, in the former manual I havve noticed that I need 9 Pcs for
testing; Do you think that its possible to virtualize in the same machine 9
pcs to do this exercises? (I am new in virtualitzation to:( )

Finally, since I've read,  the state of art of MPLS-TE is very experimental,
I didn't find any RSVP-TE daemon for signaling the protocol or other
signaling protocol. Do you think that is very premature to do a LAB with
mpls-te environment? I know that firstly I have to learn to work in
mpls-linux in general and later investigate the possibility to do some TE
aware but the question is for the future ;)

As you can see  I am very confused tin this world and every hint or advice
that you can say is welcome :)

Thank you very much for your time.

Hi,

Things may have changed for kernel 2.6.22. The examples were for 2.6.15.1.
Perhaps James can help us with this...

Hi ,

 

I have installed only kernel-2.6.22.5-76.fc7.mpls.1.958.src.rpm kernel
package, but I am unable to find the following option in

menuconfig, please let me know if I need to install any additional
packages:-

*         In Network Packet Filtering (replaces ipchains), IP: Netfilter
configuration will be selected

*         In IP: Netfilter configuration menu the following minimum
options will be selected [IP Netfilter Screenshot]:

o        <*> MPLS target support

o        <*> DSCP target support

*         In Network Packet Filering (replaces ipchains) select Bridge:
Netfilter configuration

*         In Bridge: Netfilter configuration menu the following minimum
options will be selected[Bridge Netfilter Screenshot]:

o        <*> ebt: MPLS target support

 

Thanks & regards

Hello,

The part about installing the kernel sources + compiling the kernel is
correct, but to actually use MPLS, you'll need at least the patched
iproute package!

I recommend you install iproute and iptables depending on the
experiments you plan to do. The iproute package provides the mpls
command which allows you to build static label paths.

If you want to use LDP, you need to install quagga from the svn
repository (but It might depend on the existence of the mpls command -
I'm not sure - James, correct me if I'm wrong).

Good luck!

Hello,

In order to use kernel 2.6.22 you'll have to use mpls-linux 1.9.58. You
have 2 options: If you're using a fedora core system, it's much easier
to install the rpms, but if you're using a different type of system
(that doesn't support rpm), you'll have to patch and compile the kernel
and the other tools yourself. You can follow the general steps I used
here:
http://www.elcom.pub.ro/~adrian.popa/mpls-linux/mpls-linux-docs/1-3-inst
allation.html
<http://www.elcom.pub.ro/%7Eadrian.popa/mpls-linux/mpls-linux-docs/1-3-i
nstallation.html>  but adjust the commands to match your version of
mpls-linux and packets. The configuration options for the kernel are
shown in the previous page (also with screenshots)

Good luck!

Hello,

You need to enable NFS support in the kernel (and also network drivers
into the kernel), not as a module.
You can enable this in File Systems -> Network File Systems -> NFS file
system support (must be marked as *, not M).
But... are you sure your root filesystem is mounted through NFS? I
didn't think this was possible (or at least I never heard of it)...

You should check the configuration for your old kernel and activate the
same things in the new kernel and then activate the MPLS related options
in the new kernel.

Google for 'linux howto compile 2.6 kernel' for details and help
(http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/linux-kernel/55612-mini-howto-compile-

Re: [mpls-linux-general] MPLS Kernel Loading problem

[Bhartendu M. <Bha...@co...>]

Hello ,

=20

Please confirm is this the right procedure to get MPLS enable kernel and
working ldp on linux 2.6.22 kernel:-

=20

1.                   Install
kernel-2.6.22.5-76.fc7.mpls.1.958.src.rpm(Is this conatins
kernel-devel-2.6.22.5-76.fc7.mpls.1.958.i686.rpm and
kernel-headers-2.6.22.5-76.fc7.mpls.1.958.i386.rpm files??) as

rpm -i kernel-2.6.22.5-76.fc7.mpls.1.958.src.rpm

2.                   Install
kernel-devel-2.6.22.5-76.fc7.mpls.1.958.i686.rpm as

rpm -i kernel-devel-2.6.22.5-76.fc7.mpls.1.958.i686.rpm

3.                   Install
kernel-headers-2.6.22.5-76.fc7.mpls.1.958.i386.rpm as

rpm -i kernel-headers-2.6.22.5-76.fc7.mpls.1.958.i386.rpm

4.                   Update i686 kernel file and make the changes in
.config file and compile kernel

5.                   Install new kernel on the machine and boot with new
MPLS kernel.

6.                   Then compile ldp-portable-0.900.tar on the machine
and install it.

7.                   No need to install ebtables/iptables/iproute, as
these changes are part of new MPLS kernel. Please confirm?

=20

Please let me know if I am missing any step or any thing is incorrect.

=20

Thanks & Regards

Bhartendu M.

Hello,

In order to use kernel 2.6.22 you'll have to use mpls-linux 1.9.58. You
have 2 options: If you're using a fedora core system, it's much easier
to install the rpms, but if you're using a different type of system
(that doesn't support rpm), you'll have to patch and compile the kernel
and the other tools yourself. You can follow the general steps I used
here:
http://www.elcom.pub.ro/~adrian.popa/mpls-linux/mpls-linux-docs/1-3-inst
allation.html but adjust the commands to match your version of
mpls-linux and packets. The configuration options for the kernel are
shown in the previous page (also with screenshots)

Good luck!

Hello,

You need to enable NFS support in the kernel (and also network drivers
into the kernel), not as a module.
You can enable this in File Systems -> Network File Systems -> NFS file
system support (must be marked as *, not M).
But... are you sure your root filesystem is mounted through NFS? I
didn't think this was possible (or at least I never heard of it)...

You should check the configuration for your old kernel and activate the
same things in the new kernel and then activate the MPLS related options
in the new kernel.

Google for 'linux howto compile 2.6 kernel' for details and help
(http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/linux-kernel/55612-mini-howto-compile-
linux-kernel-2-6-a.html)

Good luck!

This looks like an error that was fixed in the FC6 version, but

Re: [mpls-linux-general] MPLS Kernel Loading problem

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

Hello,

In order to use kernel 2.6.22 you'll have to use mpls-linux 1.9.58. You have
2 options: If you're using a fedora core system, it's much easier to install
the rpms, but if you're using a different type of system (that doesn't
support rpm), you'll have to patch and compile the kernel and the other
tools yourself. You can follow the general steps I used here:
http://www.elcom.pub.ro/~adrian.popa/mpls-linux/mpls-linux-docs/1-3-installation.htmlbut
adjust the commands to match your version of mpls-linux and packets.
The
configuration options for the kernel are shown in the previous page (also
with screenshots)

Good luck!

I have a working .config file for 2.6.22 kernel, I want to modify it for
MPLS kernel.

Hello,

You need to enable NFS support in the kernel (and also network drivers
into the kernel), not as a module.
You can enable this in File Systems -> Network File Systems -> NFS file
system support (must be marked as *, not M).
But... are you sure your root filesystem is mounted through NFS? I
didn't think this was possible (or at least I never heard of it)...

You should check the configuration for your old kernel and activate the
same things in the new kernel and then activate the MPLS related options
in the new kernel.

Re: [mpls-linux-general] Configuring MPLS VPN on linux hosts

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

The documentation and the examples are back online. You can get them here:
http://www.elcom.pub.ro/~adrian.popa/mpls-linux/mpls-linux-docs/
Offline documentation:
http://www.elcom.pub.ro/~adrian.popa/mpls-linux/mpls-linux-docs_v1.950.tar.gz
Offline examples:
http://www.elcom.pub.ro/~adrian.popa/mpls-linux/mpls-linux-labs_v1.950.tar

Sorry for the downtime. I will upload the documentation and examples to
another server and post the new addresses in case this happens again.

Re: [mpls-linux-general] MPLS Kernel Loading problem

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

Hello,

You need to enable NFS support in the kernel (and also network drivers into
the kernel), not as a module.
You can enable this in File Systems -> Network File Systems -> NFS file
system support (must be marked as *, not M).
But... are you sure your root filesystem is mounted through NFS? I didn't
think this was possible (or at least I never heard of it)...

You should check the configuration for your old kernel and activate the same
things in the new kernel and then activate the MPLS related options in the
new kernel.

Google for 'linux howto compile 2.6 kernel' for details and help (

Yes, unfortunatelly the link has been down for about a month now. It should
be up soon (the server had some problems and had to be reinstalled but not
all the home directories have been restored...). I'll try to post the files

Hello List,
   This is my first post to the group. Well, i have just started on mpls-linux and was able to test out the 'IPV4 over MPLS' example. I am actually looking for a few more docs and tuts on the matter to proceed any further, especially a HowTo on configuring MPLS VPN(s) on linux hosts. So if someone can just give me a few pointers, it would be great.
   
  Thanks for your time,
