RIP $100 {awarded}

buraglio

Sorry for the delay, I finally got around to bouncing this box that's running routed and found that it was not running after a restart. /usr/local/etc/rc.d/ did not have a startup script for routed which would pobably explain it. I reinstalled the pkg which of course restarted the service but there was still no startup script so I don't expect it to be running after a restart.
So if it operates as I'm reading it should a simple startup script should start it and begin forwarding packets among the connected nets (since the box is acting as a router). I don't have anything else that runs rip close by that I can test with to see but as I saw before it's at least talking as I'd expect it to.

This worked at the most basic level (starting and stopping the service) on my box:

–snip

#!/bin/sh

rc_start() {
/sbin/routed
}

rc_stop() {
/usr/bin/killall routed
}

case $1 in
start)
rc_start
;;
stop)
rc_stop
;;
restart)
rc_stop
rc_start
;;
esac

Bah, this showed a bug in package startup, thanks, fixed now in HEAD. Waiting on Scott to sync the change back to RELENG_1 (although now we've gotta check the known working packages to make sure I didn't just break them…doh!)

Has anyone verifed RIP as working and communicating routes with other RIP devices yet?
Thanks, -pc

Can someone please verify that this pacakge works so we can close out this bounty? Thanks!

Since nobody is interested in providing feedback on this package, I've pulled it from RELENG_1. If there's not feedback on it during our next beta cycle it won't make it into 1.1 either.

Hi all

have installed this package in 3 pf in my test lab, and configured with RIP v2, all the pfs work in routing mode, without NAT, But when i go to Diagnostics -> Routes, there is nothing. I have to do something else, to get this package working?

I bet Diagnostics->Routes only shows static routes (as it's part of core). I'll check that out tonight and see if it makes sense to modify that screen to show dynamic routes (probably) or if it's something that needs to be added to the package specifically.

Works fine here between a RELENG_1 (1.0RC3) and a HEAD box (CVS current). I see the advertised routes from each box under Diagnostics->Routes

OK, wild guess here, you probably are using RIP v1 not v2. dsh@ and I did find some more bugs in this package and I spent some time reworking it tonight. Please reinstall the package and re-save and let me know how it works. If we can get this package tested and confirmed in the next couple days, I'll mark it stable and include it in 1.0. Thanks

This is really wierd as all routes show up for me in Diagnostics -> Routes. In fact, that screen is just an out put of netstat -rn with very very little processing (splitting and dumping into HTML tables only). You sure it's running? :)

–Bill

diegoc

I think is running,
at least with ps -A can see the process:

30185 ?? Ss 0:00.61 /sbin/routed

to be sure,
How can i see the routing table on each pf?

sullrich

netstat -rn from a command prompt.

Working now,
i have reinstalled the package and upgraded to version 1.1.

Thanks

Thanks, updated package status to "Stable" and marked as requiring only pfSense 1.0.

pcatiprodotnet: I'd like to claim this bounty. If you need this on embedded I can create a custom firmware update for it (it's only two files and a modification to one core file).

Great work Bill. Please inform me of your paypal email address. I do exclusively use imbedded, but I don't need it right away; so, I can probably wait until it's included in the official imbedded releases. Thank you!
