Re: [Vyatta-users] DHCP

What are the destination addresses that are being forwarded?

Broadcasts shouldn't be forwarded, but the router needs to know that they're
broadcast addresses.  It'll only recognize 10.1.255.255 and 10.2.255.255 as
broadcast addresses.  If a system is sending requests to, say, 10.1.12.255
where a system is set up as a /24, that address is recognized as a perfectly
valid address and will be forwarded.

 I've set up a very basic router with only two interfaces: eth0 is my
 10.1.0.0 subnet and eth1 is my 10.2.0.0 subnet. The router's default gateway
 is my Internet router.  The subnets are in different buildings on our campus
 connected via a wireless link.  I use them mainly in conjunction with
 Windows Server 2003 sites to control replication of the of the Active
 Directory and the Distributed File System set up for user home folders.
 Internet access, internal routing between my two subnets, and replication of
 the AD and DFS work fine.

 My problem is that dhcp request broadcasts are being forwarded to the
 10.2.0.0 subnet from the 10.1.0.0 subnet.  Each subnet has its own dhcp
 server (implemented on 2003 machines not the router).  Hosts that should
 receive 10.1.x.x addresses are receiving 10.2.x.x addresses.  dhcp
 forwarding is not configured on the router.  My understanding from the
 documentation is that the router should automatically block broadcasts.  I
 would appreciate any help in discovering what I'm missing.   Below is my
 configuration.

Re: [Vyatta-users] DHCP pool questions

2008-01-14 Thread Dave Roberts
Exactly. Why should anybody care? This is DHCP we're talking about. As
long as a node receives a currently unused address from the pool, you're
up and done.

If you want to control the assignment of nodes to addresses, well, that's
what static addressing is for.

I do think it's a bit odd that the ISC DHCP server would allocate stuff
from the end of the pool rather than the beginning, but that's perfectly
legal, IMO.

This is just a guess, but the ISC server may be using the hash table to
try to reassign the same address back to the same client if it's still
available. As new clients with new MAC addresses come in, they are
assigned a new address in decreasing order, but when a client returns, it
will be assigned the same address as before unless another client is using
it. This probably helps eliminate accidental duplicate corner cases with
things like laptops that go on and off net, machines that go into a
low-power sleep state, etc. In a former company, we used the standard
Windows Server DHCP server and I remember having some issues with
duplicate addresses being handed out. I think the server always got it
right, but I think clients would sometimes miss the fact that their lease
had expired. You can't completely eliminate this problem if the client is
buggy, but you can mitigate it if you try to hand out the same address to
the same clients each time.

From the dhcpd.conf (5) man page:
quote
The DHCP server generates the list of available IP addresses from a hash
table. This means that the addresses are not sorted in any particular
order, and so it is not possible to predict the order in which the DHCP
server will allocate IP addresses. Users of previous versions of the ISC
DHCP server may have become accustomed to the DHCP server allocating IP
addresses in ascending order, but this is no longer possible, and there is
no way to configure this behavior with version 3 of the ISC DHCP server.
/quote


So it looks like it is actually non-deterministic what IP you may receive.
If you have a fresh dhcpd.leases file, you will initially get leases in
descending order, but after a few are assigned and some are expired, it
will become somewhat random(ish). This is how the ISC dhcpd daemon works
(which happens to be the most popular (by far) linux dhcp daemon) and isnt
specific to vyatta. If you install dhcpd on a redhat system, you'll see
the exact same behavior.


As for *why* this was done starting with v3 of dhcpd, I dunno. I'm curious
as to why it leasing in descending order is a show-stopper for you? This
seems like a (very) trivial thing to nitpick over. What difference does it
make as long as your clients get addresses?

I've got a Cisco routing/switching class this semester, so I should be able

You guys haven't figured out how to put Vyatta on Cisco 2811s yet have you?
Then I could have Vyatta in the lab in a covert package!

 What interface is the network connected to that you wish to serve DHCP

 need to add eth1 to the dhcp-relay configuration.

 To make this more clear, if your win 2k3 server is configured with a
 DHCP scope for network 192.168.10.x, it will only serve requests made
 from the interface configured with 192.168.10.x.  The dhcp-relay adds
 the IP address of the interface that requests are seen on into the BOOTP
 request packets so the DHCP server knows which scope to serve addresses
 to.

Re: [Vyatta-users] DHCP relay

2007-12-06 Thread Robyn Orosz
Hi Damien,

Thanks for the extra info.  I think the problem may be due to your 
masquerade rules.  Rule 1 is masquerading all traffic that leaves eth2.  
So, anything with a source address of 192.168.10.x will be changed to a 
source address of 192.168.2.10. 

Rule 2 looks like it's basically doing the reverse.  Why do you have 
these masquerade rules configured?  You shouldn't need any NAT for the 2 
connected networks and this will confuse things as I think it may be 
doing now.

Thanks,

Robyn

 Hi Sergio,

 There is a limitation in the VC3 release in that only 'ethX' values 
 can be specified for DHCP relay interfaces.  This is due to overly 
 stringent validation checks.  I just opened a new bug on this:

 https://bugzilla.vyatta.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2473


 A temporary work-around can be implemented using the attachments just 
 added to Bug 2473.

 There is the attachment id 238 that should be copied over the runtime 
 file '/opt/vyatta/share/xorp/templates/rl_dhcp.tp' on your router.  
 You will also need to apply the patch in attachment id 239 to the 
 runtime script file '/opt/vyatta/sbin/dhcrelay-starter.pl' to disable 
 another validation check. You will have to reboot the router for the 
 validation checks removals to take effect, so make sure you're running 
 off a disk rather than CDROM, or the changes will be lost.

 Hope this works for now,

 Hi all.
 I hope you can help me with this doubt :)
 I want to relay dhcp requests incoming from tree eth1 vif's to a dhcp
 server but Vyatta VC3 only allows me to select ethX interfaces (X goes
 from 0 to 23).

 Is it possible to do this? Launching dhcrelay manually is not a good
 solution, but if it is the only way I will accept.

 Thanks in advance

Hi Tony,

You should be able to put the allowed ports in the destination 
port-number/portname fields in the DNAT rule. This  way, only packets with 
those destination ports will be DNATed and be able to access the 10.1.1.2 
server.

Thanks for the answer.

 background comment
I have done a bit more readying since I sent the last
two messages and found an old message to the list back
in 10/2006 which mention about state {established: enable}
thus answering the question about reflector lists. (note:
this is not covered in the Configuration Guild, I had to
read about it in the Command Reference to come close to
understanding it).

I also understand now that the firewalls really sit at the
very edge on the interfaces. So in my above case I would
need to use the 10.1.1.0/24 addresses in the rules.
/background comment


Now this brings up a couple of new question, if I have a
firewall on eth1 (which would be the LAN interface) which
uses reflector lists ( state {established: enable} ) and I
specified the ports in my DNAT ... does this now 'punches'
those ports through the firewall?

Or are the ports now blocked by the firewall for any
'new' connections?

Hello,

I am sorry i have another question.
This time not a stupid one (i hope)

I don't find the dhcp exclude command too.

This time i am looking at the right place, i am at the dhcp subnet level and 
cannot
 see the set exclude command. i can see everything like 
 domain-name,start,default-router but not exclude

second thing when i just confiugure the dhcp shared-network-name and the 
subnet,i have the following thing:

not configured to listen on any interfaces!

Did i miss something, 
i could try to play on the Debian and add

DHCPDARGS=eth0

to the dhcp.conf file but i think this is not a solution

Thanks again

Thanks very much

We though that set start and set stop were at the same config level.

THANKS again

TRoopy

Hello Troopy,

The DHCP range stop address is specified under the DHCP range start address.

Here's an example of a command to set the start and stop IPs of the DHCP 
range leased out on shared network named dhcp1:

'set service dhcp-server shared-network-name dhcp1 subnet 192.168.2.0/24 
start 192.168.2.100 stop 192.168.2.200'


If you do a 'show service dhcp-server', this is what the output would be:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] show service dhcp-server
   shared-network-name dhcp1 {
   subnet 192.168.2.0/24 {
   start 192.168.2.100 {
   stop: 192.168.2.200
   }
   }
   }



Hope this works, let me know if you have any more problems.

Subject: [Vyatta-users] DHCP settings




Hello,

We are trying VC2.2 with DHCP settings.

We can use set start ip_address but not set stop ip_address, the command 
is not recognized. (!)

When we try to commit with only set start ip_address, vyatta complains 
that set stop is not configured 



Thanks

The Openmaniak Team, http://www.openmaniak.com

We will try to release new tutorials on
- DHCP (VC2 was bugged)
- BGP (VC2 was bugged)
- VRRP authentification (VC2 was bugged)
- IPSec (new vc2.2 functionnality)

Re: [Vyatta-users] DHCP ip address on ethernet interface

2007-08-28 Thread Dave Roberts
 Hello Vyatta,
 
 I found vyatta for a few days and i installed it successfully 
 on my box.
 It runs all fine and i updated it to the latest state.
 
 But i have a simple question, it ist possible to recive a 
 dynamic ip from an dhcp server on an vyatta ethernet 
 interface ? i didnt find a solution in the past ? ...like on 
 linux dhclient eth0
 
 best regards
 
 Michael

Michael,

DHCP client addressing on interfaces is a highly requested feature but it
isn't yet in the software. We're working on some changes to the system
that will get it there in a couple of releases. The actual feature itself
it relatively trivial to implement using the standard DHCP client packages
but it has to wait until we make some other changes to the way that
interfaces are handled in the system such that we don't interfere with the
DHCP operation. Unfortunately, this other work is taking longer that we'd
like. Look for this change in a  few months.

In the mean time, feel free to add your vote to the list of top-requested
enhancements on the wiki:
