RE: [Eug-lug] Need help with a 2.4 kernel question

[Bob Carlson]

I found some source called OpenLLDP I believe. When I looked into it, though,
there was not much there. Also none of the LLDP-MED features were included. I
added a lot of stuff to it and got it working on an Ubuntu release.

 

I'll take a look at DSL. Thanks.

 

Where you working now?

 

Cheers, Bob

Bob, 

   You might try "Damn Small Linux".  the last time I checked they are still
using the 2.4 kernel with no plans to upgrade in the near future.  I'm pretty
sure I've seen LLDP of one sort or another running on a 2.4 kernel.  Which LLDP
implimentation are they working with?

them.

 

Does anyone know of an easily available distribution with a 2.4 kernel that I
can run on an Intel VM? I want to do some testing of my own.

 

LLDP runs directly on top of Ethernet. If you have any knowledge of packet/raw
sockets (AF_PACKET, PF_PACKET) especially in 2.4, I would love to talk with you
a little bit.
