It took me a good deal of time to make a way out, but all is well that ends well. Would like to share answer to the below mentioned query as it may be of use for the others;
Scenario: Where we want to create a site-to-site VPN and run kannel on the same machine as VPN implementation and connect with remote end SMPP host 1. make sure that VPN tunnel is already build with our left (X.X.X.X) and leftsubnet(Y.Y.Y.Y) ips mentioned in our ipsec configurations file 2. Now remote end expects our encryption domain to be Y.Y.Y.Y where as kannel always uses the first interface in kernel to be its own host ignoring the others. In order to achieve this; *a) first decalre a virtual interface on the same machine with following command;* # ifconfig eth0:1 Y.Y.Y.Y netmask 255.255.255.255 ...do yourself on how to make this change persistant. *b)with our smpp SMSC configuration in kannel.conf, add following line (our-host=Y.Y.Y.Y)* group = smsc smsc = smpp smsc-id = remote host = *re.mo.te.IP* port = *p.o.r.t* receive-port = *p.o.r.t* our-host = Y.Y.Y.Y smsc-username = "user" smsc-password = password system-type = "VMA" address-range = "" ...and thats it. Now when you run bearerbox; you should see smpp pdu's travelling in log files. regards, Hammad Aslam Khan On Wed, Mar 26, 2008 at 3:37 PM, Hammad <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hello everyone, > Can somebody please share, how to configure Openswan and kannel on the > same machine witha virtual eth interface; > > how do we modify iptables in this case? > > Regards, > Hammad >
