Maybe too many users made a lazy setup that routed everything through amprgw and did not setup the tunnel mesh, thus overloading amprgw. Anyway it is not a real problem as the multicasting is now working and the RIP daemon adds the routes. Rob

no more 44-net routing through amprgw?
by Rob Janssen 06 Oct '13

06 Oct '13

During my tests yesterday (to get RIP working with a multicast socket) there was an extended period where there was only a default route in my table 44 which is used to send network-44 traffic. This default route sends the traffic to amprgw as tunneled traffic (ipip). This route is normally used only for traffic leaving net 44 to the internet, and more specific tunnels are used for all gateway stations. But this temporarily did not work while I was debugging and the RIP packets were not being processed. What I noticed was that I lost connectivity to the other network-44 stations during that interval. I would expect that amprgw would forward the traffic to the other stations. Of course this is not a desirable permanent situation, but I think it worked in the past. Has this forwarding been blocked in amprgw? Or is this something that must be caused by a local configurarion error here? (like a firewall issue) Rob

It is not this multicast bit. In fact, ampr-ripd sets it while initializing in multicast mode. The cause of my problems was that the same IP address is used on different interfaces. I have my address 44.137.40.2 on tunl0 but also on a tun interface that provides a tunnel to locally running KA9Q software, which uses address 44.137.40.1 When initializing, ampr-ripd joins multicast group 224.0.0.9 with address 44.137.40.2, but I finally found that this is happening on the tun interface and not on the ipip tunl0. This can be seen using "cat /proc/net/igmp". When I start ampr-ripd after creating tunl0 and before the tun is brought up, it works OK. The 44.137.40.2 address still is unique at that point, and the group is joined on the correct interface. I still have to decide what permanent strategy to use. Maybe I need to allocate another address... Rob

Interesting story. I thought it might be the reason for my battle with the multicast socket on the Raspberry Pi, and I have checked the setting of rp_filter on it, but when I do: cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/*/rp_filter I get: 0 0 0 0 0 0 So it looks like the rp_filter is off for all interfaces on this system. It could be a good idea indeed to turn it on, although I have some DROP rules for obviously spoofed traffic in my firewall, but that is not going to help solving the multicast problem. Apparently there is more than one reason why it could fail... still have not found what is going wrong here. Rob

The flag is only there on my eth0 interface. The kernel is the same version, config of that MROUTE option is also the same. Did you issue a command to get that MULTICAST on tunl0 switched on? Or is that supposed to be enabled by the application, rip44d in this case? I use this: ip addr add 44.137.40.2/32 dev tunl0 ip link set dev tunl0 up maybe I need "ip link set dev tunl0 multicast on"? That could be something to try... tomorrow I will add that command and change the ampr-ripd to use multicast socket instead of raw, and reboot to see what happens. Rob

Re: [44net] DMZ

All, Many stations are suggesting that those with devices behind firewalls simply add the device to the DMZ. This is an unsafe suggestion. I worked on this issue for many months and discovered how to route traffic through Linux Kernel, DD-WRT, OpenWRT and most D-Link based routers. IP Protocol Number Four (4 - IPENCAP) must be allowed. **In DD-WRT 1.) Browse to Administration > Commands 2.) Enter the commands either for either static or dynamic IP configuration 3.) Click "Save Firewall" **OpenWRT CLI 1.) Edit firewall "vi /etc/firewall.user" 2.) Enter the commands either for either static or dynamic IP configuration 3.) Save file and quit vi editor 4.) Reboot Device **OpenWRT LuCI GUI Option #1 (Recmmonded) 1.) Browse to: Network > Firewall > Port Forwards > New Port forward 2.) Enter the following information: - Name:<enter name> - Protocol:<select "other"> - External Port <leave blank, IPENCAP protocol does not use port numbers> - Internal Zone <lan> - Internal IP address <IP of you 44GW Device> - Internal Port <leave blank, IPENCAP protocol does not use port numbers> 3.) Click "Add" 4.) Browse to: Network > Firewall > Port Forwards 5.) Click "edit" on the new entry 6.) Change "protocol" to --custom-- 7.) The protocol dropdown will change to a textbox, enter "4" in the box 8.) Click "Save & Apply" **OpenWRT LuCI GUI Option #2 1.) Browse to: Network > Firewall > Custom Rules 2.) Enter the commands either for either static or dynamic IP configuration 3.) Click "Save & Apply" **On D-Link 1.) Browse to Network Settings > Advanced > Virtual Server 2.) Add name and IP address of 44GW, or select IP from the list and click the "<<" button 3.) Change Protocol to "Other" and enter "4" in the box under Protocol 4.) Click "Save Settings" **Command for Static IP (tested on DD-WRT and OpenWRT): iptables -t nat -I PREROUTING -p ipencap -d <GW Public IP> -j DNAT --to-destination <GW LAN IP> iptables -t filter -I FORWARD -p ipencap -d <GW LAN IP> -j ACCEPT **Command for Dynamic IP - (WAN is vlan1 in DD-WRT in OpenWRT it is usually eth0.1): iptables -t nat -I PREROUTING -p ipencap -i vlan1 -j DNAT --to-destination <GW LAN IP> iptables -t filter -I FORWARD -p ipencap -d <GW LAN IP> -j ACCEPT 73, Lynwood KB3VWG

Rob, I have already answer for you. Yes, my Pi is running Raspbian 3.6.11+ #538 PREEMPT Fri Aug 30 20:42:08 BST 2013 armv6l updated&upgraded as often as possible. Line from config.gz file you're asking about is as follow: #CONFIG_IP_MROUTE is not set But here is my AMPRNet tunnel interface: tunl0 Link encap:UNSPEC inet addr: 44.165.2.2 Mask: 255.255.255.248 UP RUNNING NOARP MULTICAST MTU:1480 Metric:1 I've also 3 ax ifces, 3 nr ifces, 1 rose ifce and tun0 ifce from linux to my JNOS. Traffic flows in both directions IN&OUT just fine. Best regards. Tom - sp2lob

Ok, but as I explained before, my Raspberry Pi is directly on the internet. I don't have problems with routers, NAT, DMZ zones or whatever. I have the issue that Hessu explains (Multicast socket not working; raw socket OK) but in my case it must be caused by something different than rp_filter. Is your Pi running Raspbian? What does it say when you enter: zgrep CONFIG_IP_MROUTE /proc/config.gz Rob

RIP question
by Lakenet 03 Oct '13

03 Oct '13

I run JNOS 2.0i with Ubuntu Linux 12.04. I am set up to receive RIP broadcasts and they are working fine. Along with the encapsulated RIP broadcast is coming non encapsulated data and JNOS is responding Unreachable Port Returned. Is this non encapsulated data something that I asked for in AmperNet registration or does it just come along or have to come along with the encap data? Jerry, N0MR
