Layer 2 Fail-over w/ CARP?

2007-04-28 Thread Clint Pachl
I was working on a network design and was wondering if CARP can provide 
fail-over for a group of layer 2 firewalls?


I was thinking one could just associate an interface using carpdev 
without specifying the IP address or netmask. Would that work?


firewall 1
# ifconfig bridge0 create
# ifconfig fxp0 up
# ifconfig fxp1 up
# brconfig bridge0 add fxp0 add fxp1 up
# ifconfig carp0 create
# ifconfig carp0 vhid 1 carpdev fxp0
# ifconfig carp1 create
# ifconfig carp1 vhid 2 carpdev fxp1

Am I on the right path, or will this just not work?

Listen to spanport from another box

2007-04-28 Thread michel bédard

Hi,

I've installed OpenBSD as a bridge to allow network monitoring for my 
network. So, I put 3 network cards inside the box. Two cards are 
actually part of the bridge. The third one is a spanport that takes all 
the traffic from the bridge. The purpose is to listen on the spanport 
from another OpenBSD box with snort. From the machine itself, I can do a 
tcpdump on the spanport and I see traffic ... However, from the other 
box that listens, there is nothing. I have connected a straight cable on 
that interface from the other box.


Questions:

1. What would be the state of the interface that listens on the second box?

2. Does the interface (on the second box) needs to be in a promisc mode? 
How can I do that with Open?


Here is the configs of the OpenBSD/Bridge:

/etc/bridgename.bridge0

add ne3
add ep1
addspan xl0   - The interface where the second box is 
connected.

up


Thanks,

Mik



OSPF + BGP + emX watchdog timeout - box freezes

2007-04-28 Thread Falk Brockerhoff
Hello,

I played around with two boxes and installed OpenBSD 4.1 from CD,
configured OSPF und BGP between this two boxes (I connected them via a
crossover cable) and finally tested everything doing a reboot:

both boxes are booting fine 'till the login-prompt. But one of the two
boxes always freezes. No keyboard input, no network acitivity. I can
reproduce this behavior. When I disconenct the direct link, everything
is fine.

I disabled ospf and bgp on both boxes, plugged in the direct link and
tried again. Oh, what a surprise! Both boxes boots fine, and there is no
freezing! Now I can start ospfd and bgpd manually, no problems.

Sometimes I can read a message concerning emX - watchdog time out -
resetting.

Does anybody have a idea, what's going on here?

Regards,

Falk

no, but you can use stp bridge + pfsync. 4.1 has rstp, which is
considerably faster at failing-over.



Virtual consoles : device not configured, ultrasparc IIi

2007-04-28 Thread Pierre-Etienne Meunier

Hi,

I'm trying to install openbsd on an ultrasparc IIi, and I need to run an 
X server on it. Unfortunately, I can't get several consoles :


# echo Hi, console  /dev/ttyC0
Hi, console
# echo Are you configured ?/dev/ttyC1
ksh: cannot create /dev/ttyC1 : Device not configured

Is this a bug, or is there a way to get it to work ?

Thanks,

At layer 2, shouldn't spanning tree handle redundant paths correctly?

Besides, by all indications in carp(4) it is only a method for fault
tolerance at the IP (layer 3) level.

Re: : HP ProLiant DL140 G3 problems

2007-04-28 Thread Darth Lists
No.  Basic 80x25 console redirection is free.  You only need to pay  
for the graphical interface bit.  Honestly, it blows big-time  
compared to a real serial console since it has a more or less useless  
scroll-back buffer.  I have only ever used the iLO console for the  
initial installation process and the occasional visit to the ddb  
prompt when 3.7 crashed.


That said, when I installed OpenBSD on my machines here, I needed to  
netboot them since the cd and floppy redirection thing was not  
working too well.  It's better than nothing, that's for sure, but I  
would take a serial console over that any day of the week.


Cheers,

/Jason

Could you give me some pointers on how to use the

Do I need a license for LO 100i something?
And what is (ESC+Q)?

I have used a snapshot of OpenBSD amd64 from April 24.

HP ProLiant DL 140 G2 works like a charm with OpenBSD 4.0.

The problems:



i have seen similar problems on the DL145 G3 with OpenBSD 4.0 and
OpenBSD 4.1.


1) something with keyboard interrupts. When booting with a
   PS2 or USB keyboard attached BIOS, CDBOOT and boot(8) works
   fine, but the kernel gets no keyboard. using
   boot boot cd0a:/4.1/amd64/bsd.rd -c gives an
   UKC promt but does not respond to keystrokes.

   First changing the console using
   boot set tty com0
   and then
   boot boot cd0a:/4.1/amd64/bsd.rd -c
   gives a serial console that is usable. The dmsg is attached



ukc works fine for me but the final system keyboard doesn't work. the
redirected console via iLO (ESC+Q) works without problems, i didn't
try the serial console.


2) something with internal USB devices. The axe(4) driver
   mistakes something in the server for an USB network card
   and fails to configure it. Therefore the disabling of
   the axe device in the following dmsg output. I can live
   without an axe device so this is not a big problem.



it is not an axe device, it is some internal serverworks virtual  
stuff

(and i don't need it). the interesting thing is that it reports an
empty device and vendor id (see last line) which is not handled
correctly in the usb stack:

Controller /dev/usb2:
addr 1: full speed, self powered, config 1, OHCI root hub(0x),  
ServerWorks(0x1166), rev 1.00

 port 1 powered
 port 2 addr 2: full speed, power 100 mA, unconfigured, SE USB  
Device(0x), ServerEngines(0x), rev 0.01


the attach as axe is mostly random, it sometimes attaches as axe(4)
and sometimes as uberry(4) in my DL145 G3...

uberry0 at uhub2 port 2
uberry0: ServerEngines SE USB Device, rev 1.10/0.01, addr 2
uberry0: Charging enabled


At the end of the dmsg there is something concerning keyboard
interrupts. What can I do about it?



we need to fix this ;)

more, vs less, for default man pager - why?

2007-04-28 Thread Jeffrey 'jf' Lim

hi, folks, i've been thinking about this for some time now, but havent
actually figured it out - is there any reason why more should be
preferred over less as the default MANPAGER? I cant think of any
reasons myself, and just recently discovered that 'more' is the same
binary as 'less' as well! So to me, any previous considerations that i
may have held about more being more secure than less just go flying
out the window. But perhaps it is a different behaviour then? Well the
only difference that i can tell, from more(1)/less(1) are:

This version of less also acts as more(1) if it is called as more.  In
this mode, the differences are in the prompt and that more exits by de-
fault when it gets to the end of the file.

So it's just a difference in prompt, and behaviour when the pager gets
to the end of the file? does anybody have any insight into this issue?

There's only the one on sparc64, no switching to other virtual consoles.
But you can run X fine. I had some issues getting my xorg.conf tweaked
for my Ultra 5 (IIi like you), but that's the only trouble I had.

I think it's just always been that way in UNIX, there are valid points
on both sides of the issue, and it's trivial to set PAGER yourself.

Sometimes it's very nice that `more' returns to the prompt with the man
page still on the screen, for instance.

 I'm extremely interested in binary updates as I don't yet have the resources
 to put together a build server and compiling updates in qemu is very painful.
 
 Until these binaries are trusted by the OpenBSD project though (which is
 to say, possibly never), I can't really afford the risk of putting them on
 live machines. Sorry.

Like Mal is saying this is the problem. 

Someone from the devs wrote me at the beginning of this thread saying 
that it was a matter of resources and people. He also wrote that the devs 
was not commenting on this thread because, like most times, they recieve 
a lot of good ideas, and people talk, but nobody ever does any work, 
he said that people should stop talking and then just get the work done.

Someone has now done the work and more are willing to contribute.  

 I expect you'll receive other replies along the same lines.

bgpd crash

2007-04-28 Thread Jon Morby
I've updated to the latest snapshot and am seeing the following from  
bgpd

Apr 29 03:35:18 l3-c1 bgpd[28142]: fatal in RDE: aspath_count: bula bula
Apr 29 03:35:18 l3-c1 bgpd[30043]: Lost child: route decision engine  
exited
Apr 29 03:35:18 l3-c1 bgpd[765]: fatal in SE: pipe write error:  
Broken pipe

As far as I can tell there have been no major changes to bgpd.conf in  
between upgrades

Any ideas?

I did a port of it end of last year:
http://marc.info/?l=openbsd-portsm=116733769109609w=2

I will update it one of these days and send the new version out to
ports@, BUT I didn't pursue this any further since steven@ ported
cad/kicad, which seems to be equal useful.
