Re: [OpenWrt-Devel] Change Default IP?
AFAIK you are right. The pre-existing device-specific /etc/config/network defconfig file stops the uci-defaults process, just as planned. The reason for that behaviour is that you might also have included a custom /etc/config/network in your image through the /files mechanism and also in that situation the uci-defaults would need to be stopped. WNDR3700/3800 is currently only router in the ar71xx target with a device-specific netowrk config file and thus deviating from the uci-defaults mechanism. Additionally, the uci-defaults file does not contain a config profile for WNDR3700. The reason for this exception is probably the versatile switch LED config documentation for WNDR3700. In another message in this thread Daniel wondered where the old IP address config option had disappeared. It was removed in April with r31258: https://dev.openwrt.org/changeset/31258/ 12 Apr 2012 [package] base-files: remove network preconfig, it collides with ar71xx network firstboot uci-defaults To supply custom network settings, it is better to embed a complete network config file using the files/ overlay, the old image lan preconfig options are also very limited in scope and actually collide with sysupgrade and firstboot hardware detection on at least ar71xx and possibly other targets, therfore drop this facility. Quoting John Lauro john.la...@covenanteyes.com: Not certain which config option for uci-defaults you are referring to, so perhaps I am not using the right one for it not to matter? Not sure, but looks like network gets established from target/linux/ar71xx/base-files/etc/defconfig/wndr3700/network in the base filesystem (or not? it at least appears to be closer to my running /etc/config/network than most of the other copies of network) and this line is in /etc/uci-defaults/network: [ -e /etc/config/network ] exit 0 (and that would cause uci-defaults/network not to run) (or is that not what runs at first boot that you were referring to?) so I think that would keep the defaults from loading on first boot? If nothing else, I have a few things to try. Will try the target/linux/ar71xx/base-files/etc/defconfig/wndr3700/network first as I think that sounds most promissing. Might be a few days before I gen a new firmware and test it. The flow of all these files/configurations is a bit hard to follow from build system to running system, etc... At least most of it just works, and adding to it is easy enough... just altering some of the defaults can be a bit hard to follow... - Original Message - From: Daniel Dickinson dan...@powercloudsystems.com To: OpenWrt Development List openwrt-devel@lists.openwrt.org Cc: Hannu Nyman hannu.ny...@iki.fi Sent: Thursday, November 29, 2012 5:42:10 PM Subject: Re: [OpenWrt-Devel] Change Default IP?
