Have you considered a dynamic routing protocol like rip or ospf using
the routed or zebra daemons for freebsd?  I know some versions of
windows come with, or have a windows component you can add for the rip
protocol.


Actually no, I haven't tought about it seriously.
I suspect it might be overcomplicated for my needs, but I welcome any 
pointers on this, like some introduction or how-to which might get me 
started.
Obviously I'm going to search myself, but just in case you know of a 
very well done document... :)

Sligtly OT: setting static routes on clients

2005-12-09 Thread Andrea Venturoli

Hello.
I've got a network of clients on which I'd like to set static routes; 
these are mainly (but not only) Windows machines, administered through a 
couple of FreeBSD servers.

Is there any way to do this with DHCP?
Or via Samba (netlogon.cmd)?

You can certainly do it with a Windows cmd file, though I think it'd 
be the machine startup script, not the user netlogon (might work but 
would likely require runas if they are not Admins). For details, go 
to a Windows command line and give it a


route /?

Windows has route.exe command. I'm not sure about non administrator
users. 
Are you sure you really need static routes on Windows clients?

You can try using the DHCP Classless Static Route option (#121, see RFC
3442). MSDN claims that Windows XP and Server 2003 will process them.
FreeBSD's dhclient does not, but you should still be able to set its
dhcp server to send them.

Hm, you are right about the privilege problem with netlogon.cmd.
However, with a startup script, I'd have to deploy it to tens of
machines, which I'd like to avoid.

 Thanks anyway

Yeah, quite.
Why wouldn't I want it?

You can try using the DHCP Classless Static Route option (#121, see RFC
3442). MSDN claims that Windows XP and Server 2003 will process them.
FreeBSD's dhclient does not, but you should still be able to set its
dhcp server to send them.



You mean, from man dhcp-options:

   option static-routes ip-address ip-address
 [, ip-address ip-address...];

 This  option specifies a list of static routes that the client 
should
 install in its routing cache.  If multiple routes to the same 
 desti-
 nation  are  specified, they are listed in descending order of 
prior-

 ity.

 The routes consist of a list of IP address pairs.  The first 
address
 is  the destination address, and the second address is the 
router for

 the destination.

 The default route (0.0.0.0) is an illegal destination  for  a 
 static
 route.  To specify the default route, use the routers option. 
  Also,
 please note that this option is not intended for classless IP 
routing
 -  it does not include a subnet mask.   Since classless IP 
routing is
 now the most widely deployed routing standard, this option is 
 virtu-
 ally  useless,  and  is  not  implemented  by any of the 
popular DHCP

 clients, for example the Microsoft DHCP client.


?


Well, I tryed this one, it seemed the most obvious thing.
However I didn't succeed, unless I was trying to specify a route to *a 
single IP*. In case I wanted for example to specify a route to 
192.168.101.*, what should I put in there?


Here's what I tryed:
option static-routes192.168.101.0 10.1.2.13;

Here's what I get on a Windows 2000 client with netstat -rn:
Network destination Netmask Gateway
192.168.101.0   255.255.255.255 10.1.2.13

Now, I don't think that netmask is so good, isn't it?

No, that's option 33, which as you found out only handles a single IP.
Option 121 includes network and netmask fields, but since it's not
known by isc-dhcpd, you will have have to define it yourself (see the
dhcp-options manpage, DEFINING NEW OPTIONS section).
