Hi Bernhard,

Thanks for your response,

Yes i have a status indicator, the led for the wifi is always orange, i 
think if it's work that the led become white.
I try to load/unload a few times but nothing changes, always the same

Another idea ?

Nicolas.


I have no clue.. Do you have any status indication for the button, LED or

dhclient stops trying to get a new lease

2005-01-28 Thread Nicolas
Hi,
I have a cable modem with dynamic IP, and a FreeBSD 5.3 server just 
behind. This server gets its IP with the help of dhclient.

Today I got a huge down because of a problem on the ISP side. During 
that time, dhclient made his job trying to get a lease every 4 minutes, 
unsuccessfully of course.

But at 10 AM, after 10 hours of trying to get a lease every 4 minutes 
(unsuccessfully of course), dhclient completely stopped trying. Thus, 
when the line came back up, it didn't got its lease. I had to manually 
tell him to get that new lease...

Why did it stopped trying ? What should I do to tell him to try forever 
until it can acquire a lease ?

Here is a part of my /var/log/messages :

Any reason to not implement VRRP in FreeBSD?

2023-01-26 Thread Nicolas MASSE
Hi all,

Currently, i'm investigating solutions in order to ensure some
redundancy at the IP level. More specifically, i'm looking into CARP and
VRRP.
As i'm having a look at the CARP implementation, one question did arise:
Is there currently any reason to not have an implementation of VRRP
inside FreeBSD?
I understand that this made sense at a time due to CISCO patents, but
according to Wikipedia, it seems that those patents did expire some
years ago.
So, would there still be legal issues about this or is FreeBSD now free
to have its own VRRP implementation?

Regards,
Nicolas Masse.

In mpd.conf, you need to set the interface to a valid netgraph interface name, 
e.g. ng0. mpd will create it for you if it does not exist. The physical 
interface (e.g. nve0) is specified in mpd.links, not here.

Additionally, you have a blank line between the "new" command and the first 
"set" command. I suspect that's causing the "no bundles defined" errors:

I used to have the same problem with my FreeBSD dedicated servers in the U.S. 
when I was living in South America with a latency of ~200 ms. Given identical 
hardware and connectivity, I could max out my download speed when downloading 
from a server running Linux, but would get no more than 100-150 KB/s when 
downloading from an otherwise identical FreeBSD box.

The solution was to increase the size of the TCP send window on the FreeBSD 
server to about 128 KB--the default of 32 KB turned out to be way too small.

# sysctl net.inet.tcp.sendspace=131072

After modifying this value, you need to restart any processes (e.g. Apache) 
that you want to take advantage of the change.

Hope it helps.

Unfortunately, this does not work as expected. I just tested with my
workstation (Linux 2.6), with NFS filesystems mounted with TCP; when
the station rebooted abruptely, mounting the same NFS filesystems hung
more than 1 minute (15 minutes just now). During this hang, I saw on
the server, using netstat, the nfsd process related to my workstation
in ESTABLISHED state.

Any other tip?

Many Thanks in advance,

gateway+multi-PPPoE

2001-05-11 Thread nicolas beauchesne


Hi!

I'm triyng to set-up a Gateway that will use 3 different PPPoE (to 
the same provider) adsl connection (3 modem , 3 account),  to 
distribute it back to a soho network.  In instance to get the more 
bandwith possible.

 I've been able to set-up the gateway with one modem by using netgraph 
and PPP. 

I tought that using mpd would allow me to to get the maximun of these 
three connections.
It seem to work well on the gateway.  But the rest of the network is 
dead (the gate way see everybody and vice versa) but station dont see 
the net.   

If somebody have any idea how to make that thing work it will be a 
great help.

P.S. I try that solution, if there's other who work better, please tell 
me .
thanks

Interrupts / No interrupts

Hi!

I'm working on an IP encapsulation protocol, a la IPSec. Since I need to
manage sessions, I have "shared datum" among several IP packets, so I need
to splnet() / splx() the code. A simple way to do it is just to protect my

I that a bad idea? Should I only protect some portions, and why?

True, but John is right, it's too generic a name. The argument "it's
been forever so we can't change it" seems a bit fallacious to me:
that's with that line of thinking that one ends up with breakages no one
can figure out years down the road. You end up having to keep pieces of
code no one really knows what they're doing anymore, but if you take
them out, the whole thing crashes and burns. Not that I'm saying it
would be the case for something as obvious as MSIZE, but still...

> Renaming MSIZE to ISA_IVAR_MEMSIZE seems right to me.

I agree. Don't use something like MSIZE at all. The name is not explicit
enough.

For a transition period, one could define both an MSIZE and an MBUF_SIZE
equivalent to MSIZE for a couple of versions (say the whole 5.x series),
clearly stating MSIZE is deprecated and shouldn't be used anymore, and
then it could be completely removed in 6.x.

I'm not that familiar with the code, but I'd be surprised if ICMP

Hmmm, can you provide output of hping -v and your command with -D switch?
I have the same problem using pppX interfaces.

If you do not use -I, hping should select the correct interface.

Well, I have had problems with it. I can't remember the exact wording of
the error message I was getting, but under a very high load (all four
ports spitting out about 90 Mbps), the card would frequently complain
that some buffer was full and it couldn't send anymore. The only way to
get the card back was to do an ifconfig down up on all four ports...
It looked very much like mbuf exahustion except that mbuf's were still
available according to what I was seeing. I guess there is a small
problem in the sf driver, but I didn't get around to trying to fix it.
(Device driver tweaking is not really my area of expertise...) If there
is interest I can try to dig up the old email in which I was describing
the problem... I don't think I posted it to this list at the time, it's
more likely I sent a private email to the driver's author. Then again,
these problems occured under 4.3 and 4.5, can't tell if this was fixed
in more recent revisions of the driver.

Best,

Following is a more accurate description of the problem I saw with the
card mentioned in this thread. I don't seem to have a printout of the
available mbuf's at hand, but I distinctly remember that everything
looked fine on that front.

--Nicolas

I am experiencing some problems with the sf driver, which I use on the
following quad card:

Adaptec ANA-62044 SGLQuartet 64  10/100Base TX

The driver works just fine most of the time, I can transmit/receive data
on all four ports. However, when the link governed by the sf driver gets
overloaded, I sometimes get the following error:

nc2y@tin $ ping 10.0.4.2
PING 10.0.4.2 (10.0.4.2): 56 data bytes
ping: sendto: No buffer space available

where sf0 is configured as follows:

nc2y@tin $ ifconfig sf0
sf0: flags=8843 mtu 1500
 inet 10.0.4.1 netmask 0xff00 broadcast 10.0.4.255
 inet6 fe80::200:d1ff:feee:3ff1%sf0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x3

 media: 100baseTX  status: active
 supported media: autoselect 100baseTX  100baseTX
10baseT/UTP  10baseT/UTP none

Interestingly enough, when pinging 10.0.4.1 from 10.0.4.2, I do not get
any error, and ICMP replies actually manage to make it.

This experiment was run on an Intel Pentium III running FreeBSD 4.3. (I
don't think there are any changes to the sf driver in FreeBSD 4.4.)

[Note: the same problem is present in 4.5.]

Mike Hogsett and Cejka Rudolf seems to have found also this problem.

So I wounder if there is a solution to this problem ?

Samba: Marginal performance & pauses in transfers

2003-07-24 Thread Nicolas Gieczewski
Hello everybody,

I have a FreeBSD 4.8-STABLE server running Samba 2.2.8a and a workstation
running Windows 2000 SP4. Whereas FTP transfers between these boxes average
700 KB/s (10 mbps LAN), Samba transfers are never beyond ~120 KB/s.

Trust me, I have tried *everything* I've run into as far as tuning goes, but
this is a different problem. The main problem lies in the fact that transfers are
not consistent and undergo VERY long, random pauses. My hub's activity LED
shows that, during a Samba transfer between these two boxes, no packets
are transferred about 70% of the time. Yep, only during about 30% of the total
time a transfer takes there is actual network activity--the remaining 70% of
the time is taken up by random (both length- and interval-wise) pauses.

All my network cards are propery configured, both media- and duplex- wise.
There are nearly no collissions, and the 700 KB/s rate I can achieve in FTP
transfers shows that Samba has the problem. I can do SMB transfers between
the Windows 2000 box and another Windows 98 box at about 600 KB/s, so the
culprit is obviously Samba on the FreeBSD box.

Because most of the time a transfer takes to complete is wasted on those
random pauses, anything I could tune concerning buffer sizes and the like is
almost useless because it only takes effect while data is actually being
transferred, not during the pauses. I have fiddled with buffer sizes and, by
looking at the hub's activity light, I could (visually and easily) see how
more or less data was transferred in between the pauses depending on the
buffer sizes I chose. However, the pauses stayed consistent throughout all
my tests. By using larger buffer sizes, all I could do was push more data
through in between the pauses, but my tuning never affected the length or
interval of the pauses themselves.

Does anyone happen to know what could be causing this problem?

Cheers,

Well - it has been discussed (especially on netbsd-tech, and
sometimes in pretty harsh terms), and it is the road that
is seemingly followed, according to the recent commits in the
KAME tree. See for instance the changelog for July 10 at

TCP IPv4 connections problem

2003-10-18 Thread Nicolas DEFFAYET
Hello,

I have a very strange problem on a router (R1): it stop to reply to TCP
IPv4 connections on one of its network interfaces after a random time
but it don't stop to reply to TCP IPv6 connections and ICMP IPv4/IPv6.

The network is composed of 3 routers with the same hardware and software
(FreeBSD 5.0): R1, R2 and R3.

Interfaces on R1:
ti0: to R2
ti1: to R3
ti2: to LAN1

Interfaces on R2:
ti0: to R1
ti1: to LAN2

Interfaces on R3:
ti0: to R1
ti1: to LAN3

Each interface have both IPv4 and IPv6 address.

R3 <-> R1 <-> R2


When the problem occur (between 3 and 24 hours after reboot):

LAN3 <-> R3: ICMP IPv4/IPv6 and TCP IPv4/IPv6 is OK
LAN3 <-> R1: ICMP IPv4/IPv6 and TCP IPv6 is OK, TCP IPv4 is not OK
LAN3 <-> R2: ICMP IPv4/IPv6 and TCP IPv4/IPv6 is OK
R3 <-> R1: ICMP IPv4/IPv6 and TCP IPv6 is OK, TCP IPv4 is not OK
R3 <-> R2: ICMP IPv4/IPv6 and TCP IPv4/IPv6 is OK
LAN1 <-> R1: ICMP IPv4/IPv6 and TCP IPv4/IPv6 is OK
LAN2 <-> R1: ICMP IPv4/IPv6 and TCP IPv4/IPv6 is OK
LAN2 <-> R2: ICMP IPv4/IPv6 and TCP IPv4/IPv6 is OK
R1 <-> R2: ICMP IPv4/IPv6 and TCP IPv4/IPv6 is OK


When i try to establish a TCP IPv4 connection directly to R1 through the
ti1 interface of R1 it dont work, but when i try to establish a TCP IPv4
connection directly to R1 through the ti0 or ti2 interface of R1 it
work. I can establish from R3 a TCP IPv4 connection directly to R2
through R1.


Do you have an idea how fix the problem ?


Thanks

Adding IP_PEERCRED?

2014-10-17 Thread Nicolas Braud-Santoni
Hello,

I would like to enquire about the possibility of adding an IP_PEERCRED
socket option to ip(4) which would be similar to LOCAL_PEERCRED for
unix(4).

Such a option, when requested via getsockopt(2) on a not-connectionless IP (v4 
or v6) socket, would either
- return credentials of the remote side (as a xucred structure) in the
case of a loopback (non-cross-jail) socket;
- fail (with EINVAL?).


The intended use-case of such a functionnality would be for processes
to provide services only to a given user, instead of the local host,
while using IP sockets.
For instance, an SSH client could use this feature to provide port
forwards for a given user, instead of providing it to all users.

While bapt@ thought at first glance that it might be a good idea,
neither of us know whether it would be reasonable to implement.
Any though on this?


Best,

Nicolas

PS: Credit for this idea should go to David Madore (in CC), who blogged
about it (in French):

FRR 7.1, the last release have a lot of ospf6d issues making it very
unreliable. The only way to have reliable ospf6d is to keep quagga
unfortunately.

I have troubles in routes exchanges with ospf6d but never get daemon
crash.

On my loopback, I have an IPv4 address with /32 netmask and an IPv6
address with /64 netmask.

If your configuration work fine with Quagga, and you add a router-id
statement at the root of configuration (FRR have moved router-id
statement outside of 'router ospf6' statement), it should work with
FRR.

If it didn't works, open a bug: https://github.com/FRRouting/frr/issues

I do have the Ibytes and Obytes for the lo1 cloned interface, also any

create some stats.

Any ideas ?
