AP with Radius and VLAN?

2015-09-29 Thread Frank Rizzo

Hey guys!

I'm using Ubuntu 14.04 LTS, and using the applet I am able to do basic  
configuration of an AP.  I can then start it, connect to it, and use it.   
But this base config is very simplistic.  I need something more.  I need  
Radius server authentication, and VLANs.  (Things that are supported  
through hostapd).


Does anyone have an example config that I can base mine upon?

Thanks!
-Frank

Re: How to configure a DHCP + (2nd) Static address (eg on eth0+eth0:0)?

Don't do this with interface aliases; the kernel is perfectly capable of
using more than one address on the same interface.  Simply do:

ip addr add 192.168.x.y/24 dev eth0

and magically you'll have two.




This makes addresses invisible in ifconfig output and that may confuse 
legacy software (I know about at least one such case). Adding "label 
xxx" will emulate legacy aliases enough to make them appear as "normal" 
interface.

Correct.  DHCPv4 cannot provide more than one IP address.  (DHCPv6 can,
however).

Don't do this with interface aliases; the kernel is perfectly capable of
using more than one address on the same interface.  Simply do:

ip addr add 192.168.x.y/24 dev eth0

and magically you'll have two.

This is exactly what you do.  Keep the ipv4.method = "auto" however,
that's how DHCP gets signaled.

What should happen is that DHCP will provide everything it currently
does, including the primary IP address, gateway, DNS, etc, and the only
change will be that a second IP address is added to the interface.  You
won't see this address with ifconfig though, because it's stupid.
Use /sbin/ip to see it.

How to configure a DHCP + (2nd) Static address (eg on eth0+eth0:0)?

2015-09-29 Thread Derek Atkins
Hi,

I've got an esoteric NM question.  I've got two distinct networks that
share an ethernet fabric (poor man's vlans).  I have a F22 server that I
want to put on both networks.  It's currently configured to use DHCP for
the primary network (and my DHCP server provides a static address).

AFAICT there's really no way to get DHCP to provide two addresses, so
I'd like to set up a secondary IP statically using nmcli (I did say this
was a server, right?)

Basically I want to automate NM doing, effectively:

  ifconfig eth0:0 192.168.x.y

I know how I would do this using the old /etc/sysconfig/networking
config files, but I have NO CLUE how to do with with nmcli.  I've spent
the last hour googling and reading about it and still haven't figured it
out, yet.  I suppose I could just add something to rc.local, but I'd
rather do it the "right way" (and maybe learn something along the way).

I know I can add a second IP to eth0 via:

  nmcli con mod "Wired connection 1" +ipv4.addresses "192.168.x.y/24"

But I have no idea how this would interact with the primary address
being obtained by DHCP.

So, what nmcli magic command(s) do I need to run to do what I want?

Thanks,

-derek

You have to use nmcli to configure that.
I think, there is no knob in the GUI. It seems that it should be added.

I don't think there is a known serious issue.

Yes, bridge configurations are supported. You might got confused by
the fact bringing up a bridge profile does not automatically bring up
its slaves. Basically, you need to connect all slaves (bridge master
will be connected as a dependency).

But, as you have found there is a new property to influence the
behaviour (connection.autoconnect-slaves). When you set it to '1' you
can activate bridge and its slaves will be activated too.

NetworkManager does not use iproute2 package, but NETLINK interface to
the kernel.

What is the issue with localization/no-localization?
