I am publishing below the script that brings it all together for others to use in case they need it. $ cat sonic-endpoint-update #!/bin/sh # In order for this script to function you have to download and configure a certificate bundle, if you don't have one already: # # $ wget --output-document=/etc/ca-bundle.crt http://curl.haxx.se/ca/cacert.pem # # Verify the sha256 of the ca-bundle.crt file with:A # # $ grep -v "^## Converted at: " /etc/ca-bundle.crt | sha256sum # b9ae94e8cc91d9f8135f0d84dc3cf0d91456e99288fcb7b2ea3bb27d50378a68 # # Configure your wget to point to that ca-bundle.crt file # $ cat >> ~/.wgetrc # ca_certificate = /etc/ca-bundle.crt # ^D # Testing IPv6 connectivity testping () { echo -n "IPv6 ping: " ping -n 1 ipv6.google.com > /dev/null if [ $? == 0 ]; then echo "Success" exit 0 else echo "Failure" fi } usage () { echo "Usage: $0 -u username -p password" >&2 exit 1 } testping echo "Updating sonic.net endpoint tunnel." while getopts 'u:p:' OPTION; do case "$OPTION" in u) USER=$OPTARG ;; p) PASSWORD=$OPTARG ;; esac; done; if [ -z "$USER" -o -z "$PASSWORD" ]; then usage fi # Creating session cookie temp file COOKIE=$(mktemp) trap "rm -f $COOKIE" EXIT TERM INT QUIT printf "members.sonic.net\tFALSE\t/\tTRUE\t0\tPHPSESSID\t" > $COOKIE # Logging in to sonic.net wget --load-cookies=$COOKIE \ --save-cookies=$COOKIE \ --keep-session-cookies \ --post-data="user=$USER&pw=$PASSWORD" \ --output-document=- \ --quiet https://members.sonic.net/ \ | grep --quiet "logged in as <strong>$USER" if [ $? == 0 ]; then echo "Logged in as $USER" else echo "Loggin failure" >&2 exit 1 fi # Retrieving current external IP MY_IP=$(wget --quiet \ --output-document=- \ http://www.whatismyip.com/automation/n09230945.asp) echo "Current external IP: $MY_IP" # Updating external IP to sonic.net ENDPOINT=$(wget --load-cookies=$COOKIE \ --post-data="endpoint=$MY_IP&rdns_server=none&change=1&action=step1" \ --quiet \ --output-document=- \ https://members.sonic.net/connections/ipv6tunnel/ \ | egrep -o '([[:digit:]]{1,3}\.){3}[[:digit:]]{1,3}') echo "New endpoint IP at sonic.net: $ENDPOINT" testping
