ldpd in OpenBSD 4.6

2009-10-27 Thread Nick Davey
Hello,
I noticed the release notes of 4.6 referred to ldpd, and label
switching functionality, but I haven't found any of the binaries or
man pages. Did this feature not make the release?

Thanks,
Nick

  Hi Misc@,
   Last weekend I took a peek at daily changelog. Suprising enough to see
 that
  MPLS actually made it. Wow!
   OpenBSD maybe the only multiplatform OS, that could turn a desktop into
 a
  MPLS router.. Great Job guys!
   (I wonder when you guys start on 802.1ad  802.1ah :D)

 there is a significant amount of work to be done to make OpenBSD a
 usable LER. but yeah, it's very exciting...to me at least.

Re: Trouble using :peer modifier correctly

2008-03-31 Thread Nick Davey
Does it matter that the subnet mask is configured as a /30, or is it the
media type that controls this behavior? Is there any way to use this
mechanism on an ethernet interfaces?

  For some reason we can't get it to work:

  block log
 
  pass in quick on fxp0 inet proto tcp from fxp0:peer to fxp0 port ssh
 
  # pfctl -n -f /etc/pf.conf
  no IP address found for fxp0:peer
  /etc/pf.conf:5: could not parse host specification

:peer Translates to the point to point interface's peer

 dress(es).

 That won't work.  Your fxp is not a point-to-point interface.  It is a
 broadcast interface.  It has many peers, not one.



Re: [OT] cisco switch, router and firewall suggestions

2007-08-09 Thread Nick Davey
You should be deploying OBSD as routers, but since it's for learning :P. Buy
the Cisco 2900XL, as the 1900 runs CatOS and is only 10meg. You can use the
2900XL as a production switch for your network (I do) and the fact that it
runs IOS will be good for learning. For routers just use Dynagen, which is
an IOS emulator, and will allow you to easily build labs. More info can be
found here: dynagen.org/*tutorial*.htm. You need to provide your own IOS
image for it, but I'm sure you'll be able to find one. If not pick up a
Cisco 2610 or a Cisco 3640.

Cheers,
Nick

 I'm trying to buy (from ebay) a cisco switch, router and pix firewall
 for learning purposes. All these will be connected to a Linksys ADSL
 modem which also has wireless capability. The OSs will be OpenBSD4.1,
 Windows XP and Linux distros. I will probably also try IPv6 (not sure
 if that has got anything to do with this). I had a look at cisco
 catalyst 1900 series switch and it looked ok.

 Could anyone recommend anything that would be great for leaning
 purposes and also be able to handle daily Internet traffic? Thanks.



Re: help needed with routed problem

2007-05-29 Thread Nick Davey

I'm scared. You need to use ripv1 as opposed to ripv2 and support network masks?

Hi,

Thanks for your reply.

Quoting Stuart Henderson [EMAIL PROTECTED]:

 routed is an old RIP daemon. you almost certainly don't want it.

Do you know of any other way to publish/learn RIPv1 advertisements ?
I wish ripd would deal with this, but it seems that it doesn't.

Re: ospfd participating in a stub area

2007-02-06 Thread Nick Davey
The passive keyword will advertise a network as a stub area, however as 
the interface is passive it cannot form a neighbor relationship with any 
other router in that area, or on that interface. From the man pages it 
would appear there is no way to specify an area as stub however Claudio 
or Henning would be able to help you out more than I would.


Best Regards,
Nick

Is it possible to configure an area in ospfd.conf to be a stub area?


Yes, use the passive option. It's in the ospfd.conf man page.

Re: Merchandise idea: OpenBSD mug

Please correct me if I'm wrong, but he's not marketing a brand, he's

earned by spending his time, and initially, his money, so that we have

Re: what is openripd?

2006-10-16 Thread Nick Davey
I've done software QA in the past. I can help test it if you can point 
me at a place to d/l it and toss me the documentation. I have a couple 
quagga routers, cisco router, juniper, and some d-link layer3 switches I 
can use.

I just noticed on the opencon website, a mention of openripd.

Is this a routing daemon along the lines of openospf, and openbgp?  If
so, I'm excited. I'm in an entirely rip v2 environment and have long
coveted the bgp/ospf folks. :-)



I've been developing it, with the help of some official developers and
it is in testing phase. Maybe there will be some news in the next weeks.




CARP Backup Interfaces

2006-10-03 Thread Nick Davey

Hi,
I have two firewalls running CARP and pfsync for high availability. The 
physical interfaces do not have IP addresses, only the CARP interface 
do. The problem is is that the backup CARP interface still needs to be 
able to source and forward traffic. Is this possible?
