[Vyatta-users] Clonezilla Multicast Imaging

2008-01-17 Thread Ken Felix (C)
I bet it has nothing todo with STP. Since your imaging with  mcast, was 
igmp-snooping enable or not?

Suprisely cisco switches works very good with  mcast traffic when configured 
correctly.

[Vyatta-users] Clonezilla Multicast Imaging

2008-01-17 Thread silvertip257
For those of you trying to image computers with Clonezilla and have any
(*dare I say the name*) Cisco switches, you will have timeout issues.

I've recently figured out a resolution and I'd like to share it with
everyone so that in the future someone else does not have to work as hard to
get it accomplished.  [ It's sad - we had to drop to using a 10Mbps hub to
get the Linux lab imaged due to timeout issues - rather slow! Elapsed time
has been cut down from upwards of an hour or more (80GB drive or so) to the
*new record of 20-25 min!!!* ]

I just turned off STP for the whole switch and voila - Clonezilla harmony.

Thanks again,
Mike

PS:  Vyatta Devs, when does the Vyatta Switch debut???

Commands for anyone wondering or wanting how this is done.

*All ports/whole switch *
enable
configure terminal
 no spanning-tree vlan 1
end
show spanning-tree (check to see that it's off)

*Single port(s)*
enable
 configure terminal
interface fastethernet 4
no spanning-tree vlan 1
end
show spanning-tree (check to see that it's off)

I think you've hit bug 2390: RIB: xorp_rib crashed after a static
route with a nextop through an unxisted interface or a route being
configured and committed

See https://bugzilla.vyatta.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2390 ; it's fixed in
the supported version.

[Vyatta-users] latency tool

2008-01-17 Thread Ken Felix (C)
I've used D-ITG also, great for  simulation of VOIP/SIP traffic.

 

One other tools that has a longer history Mgen/Drec. Just like ITG you
will  need sync clocks between  sender ( mgen ) and receiver ( drec ).

 

Both pkgs allows for creation by
src/dst/port/ttl/pps/kbps/etc...

 

Mgen was  mainly used  for multicast  generation  hence the  name mGen,
but it does support unicast flows also.

 

Using udp you can easily  obtain one-way latency results. Also you can
watch how certain task  effect latency.

 

i.e

 

copy tftp flash: on a cisco router will cause the  latency to growth  on
very low end routers ;)

 

or

 

squezze a flash partition:

 

 

btw, if your  very strong in scripting both pkgs  are easy to script for
automation and controls.

 

 

Hope this helps.

It shouldn't. That's one of the big things we're fixing in Glendale. The
Routermanager process did not handle errors well at all. It has been

Unfortunately, not all the log entries are nicely categorized --

"Failed to resolve" is normal on startup, as are the other logged
entries.

Try looking for "assert", "exiting" (use "grep -i" so it's
case-insensitive) to see
what else you find.

Sometimes, it's a matter of commenting out (you can use the C style /*
*/) portions
of the configuration until it comes up, and adding in elements bit by
bit to isolate where the error is.

FYI, the upcoming version will handle configuration file issues in a
much friendlier manner.

Re: [Vyatta-users] Waiting for xorp_rtrmgr...

2008-01-17 Thread Justin Fletcher
Unfortunately, not all the log entries are nicely categorized --

"Failed to resolve" is normal on startup, as are the other logged entries.

Try looking for "assert", "exiting" (use "grep -i" so it's
case-insensitive) to see
what else you find.

Sometimes, it's a matter of commenting out (you can use the C style /*
*/) portions
of the configuration until it comes up, and adding in elements bit by
bit to isolate
where the error is.

FYI, the upcoming version will handle configuration file issues in a
much friendlier manner.

You can enable verbose debugging by changing

VERBOSERTRMGR=

on line 51 of /opt/vyatta/sbin/rtrmgr.init

to

VERBOSERTRMGR=-v

As a caution, this will generate a LOT of output in your log files!!

Hi Shane,

Did you restart the syslog daemon after you modified the syslog.conf

/etc/init.d/sysklogd restart

don't see anything that just pops out at me in /var/log/messages since
the restart. I did truncate the file before attempting to restart the
vyatta-ofr service.

Hi Shane,

Did you restart the syslog daemon after you modified the syslog.conf file?

/etc/init.d/sysklogd restart

Hi Shane,

Most likely the rtrmgr did not start.  The best log file to check when that 
happens is '/var/log/messages'.

Which Vyatta version are you using?

This may also be the result of some sort of misconfiguration. As Justin
says, by default the router just forwards on to what it thinks is the next
hop. If you just configure your Internet router with a default route to
your provider, then when any packet shows up destined to any private
network that it doesn't know about inside your company, it will forward it
to your provider.

Rather than (just) installing a set of filters to block that traffic
(although that would probably be a good idea, too), you might want to
examine the routes on all of the routing equipment in your network to
determine how private addresses are reaching your router in the first
place. You might need to add some static routes somewhere, possibly on
your Internet router, to make sure things are going where they are
supposed to.

[Vyatta-users] Waiting for xorp_rtrmgr...

2008-01-17 Thread Shane McKinley
After entering some static routes and changing some subnetting around I
rebooted. Now the rtrmgr won't start -- the commit took fine before I
rebooted.

Is there a way I can pull the proper error messages to troubleshoot this
problem? What log files would be best to look at?

Any more ideas on why this would happen? I really am dedicated to
getting this router into production, but the odds seem against me this
round.

Flows from Vyatta are not an absolute requirement for me, but I would

There are methods for doing this in kernel using ip_conntrack_netlink
and ulogd2, but last time I looked they weren't incredibly mature.  I
should probably browse the code again and see what the current state of
the state is.

Until then, you can add userspace applications that use libpcap to
generate flow information.  Check out ntop or netramet.  Both of these
applications will require more processor and memory than your average
Vyatta router.  Ntop should include nProbe which allows you to export
the flow data.  Ntop is available as a debian package.  Just add the
debian lenny repo to your config, apt-get update, apt-get install ntop
to check it out.  As a bonus, it generates pretty graphs...

I am looking for Vyatta to be an exporter. Right now I just have a

All of our routers send flow data out to one of our collectors at the moment.

You'll want to create a firewall rule.  By default, a router just
forwards the traffic
it's sent (assuming it can find a route to use for forwarding . . .)

sflow is open, and gives L2 info as well as full bgp path stats rather

But then again, you don't *really* wanna be writing royalty checks to

[Vyatta-users] RFC 1918 Private IP addresses

2008-01-17 Thread Ben Speckien
I am using Vyatta as a gateway to the internet and have noticed that it 
passes un-NATed private addresses out the public interface.  Is there a 
way to turn this feature off or should I make a firewall rule?

Thanks,

Ben

Wooo! Very nice! Man Vyatta sure is going to be one power house of a
router here soon :D

Yup. It's something we're looking at over the next three releases or so.
Don't hold me to this, but hopefully sometime in the summer timeframe.

Re: [Vyatta-users] latency tool

2008-01-17 Thread Jonathon Exley
If you aren't all that worried about microsecond accuracy, then NTP can
be made reasonably accurate, somewhere around +/- 10ms if yoou use
multiple clock sources. See http://www.ijs.si/time/ for more info.

A latency measurement tool that might be useful is D-ITG from
http://www.grid.unina.it/software/ITG/index.php

Hi Troopy,

You want to look at netperf...

There is no widely-used, standard tool that I know of. I’m sure there is
some code you could snarf from somewhere, though.

I think the reason that a standard tool doesn’t exist is that the problem
of latency testing essentially degenerates to one of clock synchronization
between the source and the destination. If you do RTT measurements, the
transmitter and receiver are the same box, so the clocks are automatically
synchronized.

If you do one-way testing, you need to get clock synchronization between
the source and dest nodes. If you need highly accurate measurements, then
you might need something like GPS to help you synchronize (as opposed to
NTP, which is great for basic date/time stuff, but won’t help you much
with microsecond resolution timing).

Once you have the clock synchronization issue nailed, the code to do the
measurement is only about half a page of C on both the source and test:
take a timestamp, transmit a UDP packet out, receive it sometime later,
and take another timestamp.

[Vyatta-users] latency tool

2008-01-17 Thread Troopy .

Hello,

i have a question not directy related to Vyatta but more to networking.

I am looking for a tool that is able to measure the (one-way) latency or delay.
>From what i know ping or traceroute are only able to measure the RTT.

Thanks
