Hi, After failing to setup LVS-Tun on Windows 2003 ( no ip-in-ip support ). I'm trying to config LVS-Tun on a pfsense device where the windows machine sits behind. hoping that pfsense could act as the decapsulation ip-in-ip protocol and later forward it to windows using its port forwarding.
I'm not too sure how many people here are familiar with pfsense. but, basically it's a fw software that sits on top of a FreeBSD system. There are docos on setting up LVS-Tun on FreeBSD on HOWTO as well as in the mailing list. but I found that sometime they offer different settings for LVS-Tun. for example : are we using interface tunl0 or gif0 under FreeBSD ? some are suggesting to put the VIP in lo0 as well as in tunl0. some are suggesting to set up IP-tunnel from linux box ( as director ) -> free bsd ( as real server ) and the other way around. I believe 'ldirectord' does the ipvsadm/ip-in-ip wrap internally and send it to the realserver and hence there's no need to set a separate tunnel just for this, no ? I've managed to setup LVS-Tun Linux ( director ) -> Linux ( realserver ) previously. and on Linux real-server i'd just need to do the following ( this is after getting the director up and using 'ipip' forwarding method ): root# modprobe ipip root# ifconfig tunl0 192.168.2.72 netmask 255.255.255.255 broadcast 192.168.2.72 up 2.72 being the VIP address I'm just wondering what would be the FreeBSD equivalent of those 2 commands ? for example, i can't create a tunl0 interface on FreeBSD. ifconfig tunl0 create ifconfig: SIOCIFCREATE: Invalid argument Any help is appreciated : ) - Arief - _______________________________________________ LinuxVirtualServer.org mailing list - [EMAIL PROTECTED] Send requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED] or go to http://www.in-addr.de/mailman/listinfo/lvs-users
