[leaf-user] adding iproute2 policy on boot
Gurus, I have built a script that configures iproute2 on my LEAF box. I tried placing this script in /etc/network/if-up.d/ and then backing up - which saves my script quite nicely. When I "restart networking" from the menu I notice this script being run more than once, when ideally it should be run once on boot / network-restart. What is the best way to hook this script in ? Basically, it wget's a conf file from a private LAN, and executes it, loading extra addresses, routes into tables, rules etc. The Interface facing the core is not touched by the script - it is set and left in the inital config (too many times during testing I lost contact with the router due to slipups.) Only user-facing interfaces are configured.

Re: [leaf-user] Improving wireless link
Charles, On the basis that there is some distance involved ; (an assumption) My understanding is that some of the cheaper (dlink in particular) wireless gear has 'timing issues' when the A/Ps are physically far apart. In the extreme, you will have to go to a proprietry fix, viz turbocell, or replace the A/Ps with something a little more tolerant of distance. 802.11 was never intended to travel great distances. Indeed it was part of the 802.11 specification to actually prevent (ha ha) this from happening - the reason for the proprietry RF connectors. In summary, many standard 802.11 wireless cards will do great distances without getting flaky, but I have heard that the dlink gear is not of that category. Other cards such the Orinoco PC-cards combined with turbocell work very well indeed at distances up to 20km, and provide true data rates in the order of 9MBit/sec (I am told). I don't like the idea of proprietry *anything*, and I wish there was an open-source 'turbocell'. In answer to your question, I do not think there is a device you can put on the ends of a leaky hose - to make the hose not leak. sorry. I hope someone else has a different version to tell. 8-( /steve Charles Steinkuehler wrote: I've built an IPSec VPN tunnel over a point-point wireless link using a couple of D-Link DWL-900AP+ boxes and some spare ports on a couple of installed LEAF boxes. My problem is I'm seeing *LOTS* of packet loss, duplicate packets, mangled packets (especially longer packets typical of downloads and web browsing), and other nastiness making performance across the wireless link virtually unusable, despite a fair amount of bandwidth. It seems to be fairly well known that TCP doesn't handle the bursty packet loss typical of wireless networks very well, having instead been designed for packet loss typical for congested wired networks (where partly garbled packets are quite rare). I have seen a few proposed mechanisms that operate at layer 3, monitoring the TCP traffic, and "fiddling" with the TCP flow to improve TCP performance (by doing things like requesting re-transmissions of packets that look like they got dropped by the wireless link). Now for my question: Does anyone know of a linux implementation of anything like the above I could possibly get running on a LEAF box? Since I'm tunneling all traffic through a leaf box on each end, it seems like I could implement something to "transparently" deal with the lossy wireless hop, but since I'm kind of new to the whole wireless thing, I'm not sure what software I'm looking for, or if it even exists. Of course I'm also looking at what options I have for increasing the fundamental reliability of the wireless link as well, but I'd still like to find something that can "tweak" TCP operation for running over wireless.

[leaf-user] securing wireless links
Gurus, WISP-DIST (latest) on 500MHz VIA EPIA What are my options for securing a wireless backbone link ? I will be trunking a number of scopes over these links. Also, we are going to try VoIP, and hopefully the EPIA will have enough power to push the VoIP through an encrypted link. I have had a play with IPSec, but I'm getting this ; Trouble openning PF_KEY family socket with error: Algorithm support not available in the kernel. Please compile in support.

[leaf-user] wireless LAN security
Hi Folks, What are we using to secure single point-to-point links? - viz WEP, but actually secure.. AIUI, Ad-Hoc mode must be used for backbones, but this leaves security to be done at the IP level - not really good enough. I have read-up on IPSec, but that seems to be about tunneling all the routers to a central point, or maintaining multiple IPsec dedicated links per router, which is either horribly wasteful on bandwidth, or horribly complicated to configure/maintain. 8-/ I wonder with the opportunistic approach might be used - with each router IPSec forward to the next one. anyone doing this ? I need a few pointers. TIA, Steve --- This SF.net email is sponsored by: VM Ware With VMware you can run multiple operating systems on a single machine. WITHOUT REBOOTING!

Hi All, since WISP-DIST runs read-only off a flash disk, has anyone thought of PXE booting a box (LTSP style http://ltsp.org ) and having WISP-DIST install itself into RAM ? The proceedure should be roughly equivalent to grabbing the packages off DOM and unpacking them into RamDisk.

I'm not keen on the soekris gear. It looks awfully expensive for what it is. The main thing about the wrap1a, is it will take two mini PCI cards onboard, and these cards are only US$50 here (100 bucks local $) which is dead cheap. 12VDC, 0.5A, two 10/100, two miniPCI wireless interfaces.. for around US$250.. ?? nearly unbeatable. 8-/ I wouldn't mind USB too, but a couple of ethernet/wireless bridges on the end of some cat5 is all good.. if not better. /steve --- This SF.net email is sponsored by: VM Ware With VMware you can run multiple operating systems on a single machine.

Depends what you want to do with it. As George says, wireless is not remotely secure, so you should only run secured protocols, or irrelevant protocols over it. You must not plug a WAP directly into your internal firewalled LAN without taking substantial precautions. I have my WAP on a different network scope than my internal LAN, so *nothing* is visible to wireless clients unless I enable a service specifically. ie ; LAN scope 192.168.0.0/24 WAP scope 192.168.10.0/24 Now you may add IPs on the WAP scope to whatever services you want available to the WAP. Other hosts and services are invisible. This is far easier than firewalling everything. Both scopes run simultaneously on the same network cabling.

That is one school of thought. It is no different, as far as the kernel is concerned. Not better, just different, and easier to understand from the hardware point of view. Modern networking techniques make this approach obsolete, however. If you buy a complete Wireless Access Point, and configure it as a bridge, and attach an IP address that is outside the scope of your internal LAN, then there is no way any communication will take place from the wireless scope to the internal LAN scope. The WAP just does not have the know-how to bridge an IP that is no on its' scope. Then, configure only the services you need to listen on the WAP scope. Example ; Your Internal Wired LAN is - 192.168.0.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 Your WAP (bridging mode) IPaddress = 192.168.10.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 Now configure your squid proxy to listen on 192.168.10.254 Add a dhcpd entry to allocate addresses on the 192.168.10.0/24 subnet >From your wireless LAN, there will ONLY be one working address on the LAN, and that will be the squid proxy, for which you will need a password to use. Carefully enable other secured services as required, viz sshd. Your Internal LAN is now separate from your WAP LAN, yet they use the same cabling, and you haven't needed to write one single iptables entry. The above example should just 'work', but there will likely be issues since it was off the top of my head. This is "iproute2" networking, or otherwise called "policy routing". Later on, if you are so inclined, you can fiddle with this some more, by adding rules and multiple routing tables on the basis of "Routing Policy". Rarely do you need to return to iptables to set Networking Policy. Networking is fun again.. 8-)) HTH, Steve --- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf leaf-user mailing list: [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/leaf-user SR FAQ: http://leaf-project.org/pub/doc/docmanager/docid_1891.html

I disable the router function in my D-Link 713P. Yes, you can use a separate NIC, but then the AP must be next to the Bering Router, or run a new long cable. This is inconvenient, and is not required, unless the AP *is* right next to the Bering Box. These are scopes ; 10/8 172.16.1/24 192.168.0.0/24 You may run multiple scopes on one subnet(network cable/switch/NIC) and add rules about who may talk to who. It can be complicated at first, but it is very powerful, and much easier than heaps of iptables entries. /steve --- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf leaf-user mailing list: [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/leaf-user SR FAQ: http://leaf-project.org/pub/doc/docmanager/docid_1891.html

In fact, you may do any type of routing/balancing/unidirectional/bidirectional thing you might like to do. The following will route each *packet* out a different port. ip route add equalize default \ nexthop via DSL1-IP dev eth1 \ nexthop via DSL2-IP dev eth1 If you remove the word "equalize", then it will send each alternate tcp stream out each port. DSLn-IP are the addresses of your DSL connections, and eth1 is the assumed local interface pointing at your DSL modems. please report your success and/or problems with this, so I may amend etc. /steve --- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf leaf-user mailing list: [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/leaf-user SR FAQ: http://leaf-project.org/pub/doc/docmanager/docid_1891.html

WRT routing, my understanding is, NAT is completed before the default route is evaluated, so everything should proceed as usual. There can be 'issues' with 'equalize' when the link latencies are different by an order of magnitude. something about re-assembling out of order or something, so I would say your surmising is correct. In this case, equalize by tcp-stream only. hrm, I am the newbie here, so do not consider me to be a reliable source (yet 8-). /sw --- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf leaf-user mailing list: [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/leaf-user SR FAQ: http://leaf-project.org/pub/doc/docmanager/docid_1891.html

I am considering the same, and I am wondering about CIPE. RedHat and others package CIPE and include a GUI Wizard to set it up. Very tidy. I understand openvpn works over a ssh tunnel.

CIPE is probably the next best, followed by openvpn, on the assumption that openvpn runs over an ssh tunnel.
