Hi all, I've been trying to set up some olives running inside qemu to practice for Juniper exam. I came across the multicast issue when enabling VRRP
After lots of googling and reading forums, where people have being doing hacky patches, I found a page that suggests this has been fixed now, just not in a formal release (here for reference) http://www.internetworkpro.org/wiki/Using_QEMU_with_Olive_to_emulate_Juniper_Routers#Getting_and_Installing_QEMU I had a look through gitweb and can see there has indeed been a commit to fix multicast in eepro100 and so I've built a qemu based on latest git (as of yesterday). Unfortunately it doesn't seem to fix things for me, however I do have a different error now.... eepro100: feature is missing in this emulation: Multiple IA bit The setup of this link is quite simple, I have 2 qemus running using tap mode for network, and I have bridged them together on my host (Linux) When I configure the network I can successfully ping across the link with no problems, but as soon as I enable VRRP on either end, I start to get the above error at regular intervals (I assume it's each time VRRP sends a multicast hello), and also my link stops pinging altogether. When I remove VRRP config, the link pings again. Does anyone know what's going on, or if I'm doing anything wrong? Thanks in advance, Dunc
