Dear all, I've just replied (by private mail) to two users who have been asking me about how to redistribute a NAT-ed dhcp route with Babel.
In order to avoid misconfigurations, babeld will refuse to redistribute a route with a protocol number of ``boot''. If your dhcp implementation is able to use a different protocol number, use that. If your dhcp implementation cannot use a non-default protocol number, you should manually install a static route: ip route add default proto static via 1.2.3.4 onlink dev eth0 metric 2 Some people, however, complain that this won't disable the route when the dhcp client loses its lease. For those people, I recommend babel-pinger: http://www.pps.jussieu.fr/~jch/software/files/ You may run babel-pinger as so: babel-pinger -i eth0 -P dns 1.2.3.5 where 1.2.3.5 is the address of your name server. Then, in your /etc/babel.conf, do something like this: redistribute 0.0.0.0/0 le 0 proto 43 allow For more information, please see the babel-pinger manual page: http://www.pps.jussieu.fr/~jch/software/babel/babel-pinger.html Juliusz _______________________________________________ Babel-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/babel-users
