Re: [Vyatta-users] installation

2007-11-07 Thread David Pearce
You use the VC3 live cd, login as user=root/password=vyatta to enter normal 
linux mode.
type install-system

If you already have linux partitions on your hard drive, installation may fail. 
You can remove them first with cfdisk

Subject:[Vyatta-users] installation

I'm a little confused on the issue of installing vyatta.  I'm looking at 
community edition 3, and it's available as a vm and as a live cd iso.  
So I want to install this on a machine to use as a router, but I don't 
see anywhere how to actually get it onto the hard driveCan someone 
point me to where in the documentation this action is mentioned?  Thanks.

The routes were missing from the system table and the Linux "root mode" 
table
My hardware was ancient Compaq PII 266 with Intel eepro NIC and a 
Celeron 768 with Realtek NIC, so I don't think your problem is caused by 
your fast hardware

Re: [Vyatta-users] Static routing and E1 serial

2007-11-06 Thread David Pearce
Stig
I found that the root mode routing table was completely missing and a 
lot of RIB errors being continuously reported
VC3 seems to not like serial ports being deleted and recreated.
Another issue is that Ethernet NICs that are not actually connected 
during installation seem to be overlooked during the route creation
I solved my problem by formatting and starting again with cisco-hdlc 
encapsulation

I have found that VC3 is very fussy about adding routes. Changing an 
interface and deleting the node followed by recreating it with new 
settings leads to no routing table entries for me.
I have found that the only way to get a correct table is to start from a 
clean format

[Vyatta-users] Static routing and E1 serial

2007-11-05 Thread David Pearce
I have two PCs linked by an E1 link wit Sangoma A101 cards
PC1
eth0 10.0.0.0/24
wan0
local 192.168.0.1
remote 192.168.0.2
prefix-length  24

PC2
eth0 10.9.1.0/24
wan0
local 192.168.0.2
remote 192.168.0.1
prefix-length  24

show route does not show the wan ports and I cannot ping them locally

Looking at PC1 /var/log/wan0.1.log I see
"Peer is not authorized to use remote address 192.168.0.2" and 
equivalent also on PC2

The wan link is in PPP mode with authentication type set to none

I changed to serial i/f to ppp encapsulation and now the link comes up 
and packets are flowing
I already have one end internal clock and the other external.
Now to learn how to set up routing so that I can use it

[Vyatta-users] Basic frame relay setup

2007-11-05 Thread David Pearce
I am a Vyatta beginner trying to set up a very simple static network 
with two pcs and a E1 link between them using Sangoma A101 cards.
I have set up the frame relay encapsulation and local and remote 
addresses with vif 16.
The wan cards are linked by a E1 pins 1,2 to 4,5 crossover cable that I 
have made up
Nothing I do seems to bring the E1 link up and I see errors about 
wlan0.1 which I presume is the (unused) ppp vif

Any known problems here?
