Hello,
I'm trying to add support for PPP "unnumbered" connections which are PPP
connections which don't use a dedicated IP, instead an IP address of
another local interface is "reused" on the PPP interface.
Some Internet providers require this, since their PPPoE server pushes
the network address when routing multiple IPs, and some customers want
to use it to save IP addresses.
Reference: http://www.sustworks.com/site/ipr_guide/unnumbered.html
I have added an UCI option 'unnumbered' 'INTF' which means "reuse the IP
address of INTF" (e.g. unnumbered LAN will put the IP of the LAN
interface on the ppp interface as well), and the following script in
/etc/ppp/ip-up.d/.
It works, but it is not integrated with netifd, e.g. netifd does not
know about the IP address we assigned.
Any ideas how that could be implemented better and integrated with netifd?
Thanks,
bruno
