Hi, Two bugs with grouter were fixed. First is a broken traceroute.
traceroute -I dst_ip from a host to another host (dst_ip) should work. Here you need to use the -I option for traceroute to indicate that it should use ICMP instead of the UDP packets that it uses by default. There was a bug with the previous grouter that prevented this from working. It should work now. I tested it extensively. However, the automatic route computation seems little unstable. Please compile the topology twice or more before running it. This seems to give more stable results. I have seen some routers crash in large network topologies. At least now with few compiles I am getting it to work consistently. Also, there was another bug that prevented pings from router to host. You know that grouter provides a command shell and you can ping a host (UML) from there. This was not working earlier. It is working now. I have posted gini 1.02 on the website. If prefer not to reinstall gini, please download grouter.tar.gz and replace the src/grouter folder with the contents of the tar.gz file. Thanks. -mahes +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Muthucumaru Maheswaran Web: www.cs.mcgill.ca/~maheswar | | School of Computer Science Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | | McGill University Phone: (514) 398-1465 | | 213B McConnell Engineering Building Fax: (514) 398-3883 | | 3480 University Street | | Montreal, QC H3A 2A7, Canada | +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ _______________________________________________ gini mailing list gini@cs.mcgill.ca http://mailman.cs.mcgill.ca/mailman/listinfo/gini
