IGMP proxies are the usual solution to this in the field

Caveat is that you can only use IGMP proxy in simple tree-based setups;
there's currently no way of partitioning membership,
and using PIM inside your own domain.

Most lower-end vendor kit has the same limitation.

I've certainly thought of doing it, but no one's come forward to fund 
the feature, nor has it been part of any official road-map.

It is not clear if I'll have to do it for my new gig -- we can get away 
without it.

No objection -- boost_regex *is* a large binary dependency

I eager to see it If anyone is developing igmpxproxy mode patch for xorp.
Many can be benefited form it as it may be the requirement in major
scenarios
as very rare ISPs providing PIM access.

Alternatively , is anyone looking to fund this work ? Personally I am
not looking to be funded to write an igmp proxy or to write one, but I
thought i'd ask the question.

Hello!

Did you get a chance to try this out?

If it requires any significant work to make the support happen, I'd
prefer to work on it in 1.8.

Thanks,
Ben

I got as far as trying to compile xorp on ubuntu 8.10 LTS and
discovered scons is out of date on that platform. I've upgraded
another box to 10.04 LTS and xorp seems to compile on that now. I'll
see if i get chance to try xorp + click soon. FYI click is specified
as an option in the user manual, I just don't know if bit rot has set
in or not. Anyone know ?

If we can get agreement from the other dev's on what is in a 1.7
release (fine details) and what is still required, I am happy to roll
the 1.7 release with or without a tested click, that can wait in my
opionion, but I'll keep bashing away to see if it can make it in.

I've never tried to use click, but I recall users reporting problems on the mailing
list in the past and don't remember any answers.

Personally I don't want to be funded or to fund.

I have few ideas to take community opinion, weather they are implementable?

If I am going to be, who contribute patch (in C lang , as loadable
kerenl module, as
 current c++ code of xorp may be long path for such editing)

If I would Develop such netfilter module (for sbunet's main RP xorp),
that catches
PIM join messages (and then identify the group address from the PIM join
message's packet)
And send subsequent IGMP group join packet to upstream ISP router.

And All multi-cast traffic then come to local subnet for those group on
which local RP have PIM join :) 

Will xorp able to transmit/forward these multicast traffic to
appropriate grop subscribers , to its further
subnets?

Will this workable as per protocol?

Subject: [Xorp-hackers] Meeting minutes - Thursday 22nd April 2010
Message-ID: <n2o4769af411005040126t38742748h22e8958996bf5ea2@mail.gmail.com>

These are the minutes from the most recent xorp hackers conference call.

Adam

----- Minutes of meeting on

Adam Greenhalgh - attended
Eric Johnson - Florida international university
Lin Du - not present
Ben Greear - Candela Technologies
Fred Bauer - 2003 @ icsi and xorp inc
Michael Paisner - Avetek pacific - military contractor - concerned
user (inc. tom knowls)
Bruce Simpson - 2004 @ icsi and at xorp inc, working on xorp and has
contracts with others.
Aaron Shang
Mark Handley - started xorp, wrote majority of rib, router mgr and xorp shell
Atanu Ghosh - 1st employee , and ran xorp for many years.

Agenda :

=======

0. (Adam to chair this item)
 - Introductions of those on the call and background.
ok  - Agree who is to chair the main call, proposal is Mark Handley.

adam/atanu on wave - Agree who is going to take minutes.

1. Copyright attribution for new changes.

 - Which organisation should possibly hold the new attribution ?
  - UCL
  - a XORP foundation (Do we need to set one up ?)
  - Individual
  - Other

Mark outlined the background to the copyright, originally code was
ICSI's and then transferred to xorp.inc . xorp.inc did gpl/lgpl the
code.
The current bidding process winner wasn't known.
Mark outlined the options above.
Bruce : It is a big issue, especially in the embedded world
particularly on the license type front.
Mark : Discuss 2 as well.

2. LGPL / GPL / BSD license for new changes.

Mark : 1.5 was the last BSD release. Current Protocols GPL , Libraries
LGPL. Do we want to roll back to 1.5 ? Some items have changed a lot
others haven't.
Ben Greear : Interested in keeping GPL and LGPL , not interested in
licensing his changes under anything other than GPL. Individual
licensee.
Michael Paisner : Wants an open source , but wants a quality keeper.
Fred : Bruce , what are the main changes ?
Bruce : main 1.5 changes, added vrrp , scons work . Those changes
could be rolled forward.
Mark : BGP changes.
Atanu : Footprint reductions by JT , but lost a lot of the tests.
There would be a lot of changes to roll back to.
Bruce : Has a customer, who he has advised to go back to 1.5 for their
business model.
Mark : First thing , new protocols can be on any license. Second
thing, is 1.5 can be linked against newer libs.
Mark : New BGP changes will remain under GPL.
Mark : Proposes staying with GPL and LGPL and moving forward from 1.6
release as its under sourceforge from now.

All : Agreed.

3. Policy for adding committers.

Mark : This is the only time when we don't have full time committers
and we now need a new open model for committers. What should the new
model be.
Ben : Small number of people acting as reviewers and then pushing the
code in from mailing list publications.
Bruce : Few people with the knowledge to do this. But need a quality control.
Mark : This is part of item 4. But how do we approve a new person ?
Adam : 10 patches accepted from the list accepted ?
Ben : We need a person / group to say yes / no to a patch. Some one
needs to lead to take the patches.
Atanu : Do we break this down to subsystems and have one person per sub system.
Mark : Committers suggest new committers and then agree new committers.

4. What is the patch approval process.

Committers : Bug fix goes in. Larger changes discussion amoung committers.
Committers : Test local platform and then fix changes on other platforms asap.

5. Project Management.

 - Who is in charge ?

Mark : Majority of those with commit privs, to vote.
Ben : Dictator approach.
Decision : Committers collective decision, with mark casting vote.
- How do we run things going forward ?

6. Tinderbox

 - Current 4 Platforms.
 http://buildbot.cs.ucl.ac.uk:8010/waterfall (and for the xorp-ct tree
http://buildbot.cs.ucl.ac.uk:7010/waterfall )

Mark : Accounts, available to add core team to create new accounts.
Adam to add 64bit Ubuntu 10.04 when released to buildbox.
Atanu : A number of tests are missing , certainly for bgp and ospf,
haven't checked rest. Not a lot of work , but some to switch it back
on.
Atanu and Ben : To working on doing this.
Bruce : Status , all tests that can run as c++ programs except bgp are
running. Anything that requires running a shell script is turned off
except for a few in xrls. Compound tests and bgp test harness not
working.

Reinstate xorp tinderbox list.

7. Do we need mirrors ?

Consensus seems to be that mirrors are not required.
Mark will ask the mirrors list if mirrors are useful.


8. What is the todo list for the next release (1.7) of XORP.

 - What is required to get the current svn repository out as a release.

Mark: What has changed.
Bruce: Scons, deployment, footprint reduction, bug fixes in XRLs.
Installation has totally changed, standard locations now being used.
Shared libraries renamed for ease of use.     Library origin change so
shared libraries can be found anywhere on the disk.
Adam: How many tests will be re-enabled before the release is rolled?
Mark: Should try and re-enable the tests.
Mark: The release should be as good as the 1.6 release.
Ben: Put out a release candidate and see if it fails.
Bruce: Make a release branch.
Mark: There are very few changes so don't worry about making a special branch.
Mark: What is required to make a release?
Bruce: Make a release as soon as possible, take Ben's changes for 1.8.
Adam: Would like to see Debian Sparc and Fedora 12 build, i.e. all
Tinderbox systems.
Ben: Big patch required for xif file passing with the C preprocessor.
Mark: Please try and commit the changes to the tree for Fedora 12.
Mark: Make release as soon as possible and then take Ben's changes for 1.8.

9. Is Sourceforge what we need ?

Mark: Bruce doesn't seem happy with sf, should we look at moving to
another repo. SF on svn seems to work well.
Bruce: Look at redmine.

10. Do we need a wiki and bug tracing system ?

  - is the one on Trac sufficient.

Mark: Should we use a different system.
Consensus is it seems to be working.
Ben: Can it be configured to send email when a trac entry is made.

11. Mailing list membership.

  - Should xorp-dev become the xorp committers list ?

Mark: Mailing lists are still at ICSI is this okay.
Ben: Is happy with things as they are.
Mark : xorp-hackers to be all discussions on technical issues,
xorp-dev just private list  for policy related issues e.g. a new
commiter

12. API stability.

Ben / Bruce : Not an issue at this point.

13. Boost usage

Ben : against boost
Bruce : for boost
Atanu : against boost
Bruce : Important set of tools for large systems.
Ben : Foot print size too big for large systems.
Mark : Not used it, but build time is significant, would prefer to
minimise external dependencies.
Mark : Bruce to write an email about what we'd gain from boost.

14. AOB

- mark suggested more regular calls.

Ben : as needed
Mark : Approximately a month then.

Notes : Minutes policy.
----------------------------------

1. Minutes will be written up and circulated to all those on the call
for corrections and amendments. Two working days will be allowed for
corrections.
2. Corrected minutes will be circulated. Two working days will be
allowed for corrections.
3. Minutes will be posted to xorp-hackers.

Message-ID: <v2i836838691005051516x75ce7185r9748648492491abd@mail.gmail.com>

Hello everyone

 I have addend a process in the xorp structure, so i have modified the
Makefile.am, to compile my little process.
But when i go to recreate all the makefile i have lot of error. (I'm using
Xorp1.6).

I tried using the bootstrap file, but it give me the following error:

aclocal-1.10 -I config
config/compiler_flags.m4:156: error: m4_defn: undefined macro:
_m4_divert_diversion
config/compiler_flags.m4:156: the top level
autom4te: /usr/bin/m4 failed with exit status: 1
aclocal-1.10: autom4te failed with exit status: 1
Error running 'aclocal-1.10 -I config'

And i have no line 156 in complier_flags.m4

Anyone know how i can recreate all the makefile, from the makefile.am i have
modified.?


Also i was searching how the file configure.in provided in the source code
tar.gz archive is generated? because i want to add folders to the list of
makefile to compile, but not sure if i have to do it by hand.

Thanks

I don't know about that, but if you can post a patch I'll see if
I can help integrate it into one of the 1.7 code trees.

For the moment what i want to do is adding in the Makefile.am in
xorp/rib/tools the compiling of a modifier version of show_routes.cc who use
an extern lib, xmlrpc.

After i will add a new folder, "verification", who will incorporate a daemon
to verify the network.

The patch is only adding some text to makefiles (in the 1.6) but i
don't understand why it doesn't work
If possible i prefer to stay on 1.6

Thanks.

I'm trying to port my changes on xorp 1.7, but i have a question,

the Scon SConscript and SConstruc files are build manually or automatically
generated?

Thanks

Manually.  They are basically python.

Do a 'scons install' and run it from /usr/local/xorp/sbin/

Must the daemon implement a particular code? or it can be any c/C++ code?

It has to be registered with module manager in rtrmgr.

To follow up...I had forgotten to set the ipv6 nexthop, and that got
my system in an endless loop of adding and deleting routes (which
caused show-routes to crash, which slowed me down for a bit too.)

I fixed the show-routes bug in xorp.ct, and opened a bug to track
the next-hop6 issue.

Once I set the next-hop6 for the peer, things worked fine.

Thanks,
Ben

I'm not worried about adding any features - my main wish list item is
that we get back to similar test coverage to previous releases, so
we're confident we know about any regressions that happened.

So do you want me to backport the bgp test harness fixups and
bgp code to fix the bugs I found before we release
1.7?  I don't have a good way to test actual functionality of such
backported code aside from the test harness, though the risk isn't
too bad.

Backporting code isn't the most fun thing to do in the world,
but probably not too difficult, so I'll do it if you want.

Thanks,
Ben

If you can do so, that would be ideal.  Even though this is very much
an interim release, we do need coverage to ensure it's of adequate
quality and to see if anything else needs fixing.  Buildbot certainly
indicates your tree has much better test coverage at the moment than
the sourceforge tree.

Message-ID: <E3144A5AFE0BEE438E3074CFD47AAC10C75FFA@SD-EX1.Linkabit.L-3com.com>

I didn't get any feedback with this question on the users list, so I
will try here.

 

This question concerns PIM-SM routing.  I'm currently building and using
v1.7.

 

Is there any way to disable join suppression in Xorp?  If there's any
mention of it in the User's Guide, I've yet to find it.

 

>From rfc4601:

 

o OptionType 2: LAN Prune Delay

 

      0                   1                   2                   3

     |T|      Propagation_Delay      |      Override_Interval        |

     +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+

 

     The LAN Prune Delay option is used to tune the prune propagation

     delay on multi-access LANs.  The T bit specifies the ability of the

     sending router to disable joins suppression.

 

I find that xorp always set the T bit to zero, which means that Join
Suppression is always enabled.

 

On the other hand, though, I'm connecting to several Juniper routers,
which by default set the T bit,

which means they disable Join Suppression.  I can enable Join
Suppression by setting this Juniper

variable: reset-tracking-bit.

 

During testing, I'd like to disable or enable Join Suppression on all of
our XORP routers, too.  Is this possible?

 

If not, where in the code should I look to change this?

http://www.candelatech.com/~greearb/misc/patches/xorp_bgp_harness_backport.patch


'scons check' passes as good as it does in xorp.ct, so I'm pushing this.  If there
are any suggestions for improvement I'll be happy to consider them.

This patch:

*  Makes bgp compile with shared libraries.
*  Fixes up some utils and libxipc stuff to compile for the bgp harness.
*  Fixes bgp harness logic to work with new path layout.
*  Runs xorp bgp harness logic when 'scons check' is requested.
*  Fixes some BGP asserts I found in xorp.ct testing.

Thanks,
Ben

Subject: [Xorp-hackers] PIM-SM: disabling join suppression?
Message-ID: <E3144A5AFE0BEE438E3074CFD47AAC10C76000@SD-EX1.Linkabit.L-3com.com>

I didn't get any feedback with this question on the users list, so I
will try here.

 

This question concerns PIM-SM routing.  I'm currently building and using
v1.7.

 

Is there any way to disable join suppression in Xorp?  If there's any
mention of it in the User's Guide, I've yet to find it.

 

>From rfc4601:

 

o OptionType 2: LAN Prune Delay

 

      0                   1                   2                   3

     |          Type = 2             |          Length = 4           |

     +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+

     |T|      Propagation_Delay      |      Override_Interval        |

     +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+

 

     The LAN Prune Delay option is used to tune the prune propagation

     delay on multi-access LANs.  The T bit specifies the ability of the

     sending router to disable joins suppression.

 

I find that xorp always set the T bit to zero, which means that Join
Suppression is always enabled.

 

On the other hand, though, I'm connecting to several Juniper routers,
which by default set the T bit,

which means they disable Join Suppression.  I can enable Join
Suppression by setting this Juniper

variable: reset-tracking-bit.

 

During testing, I'd like to disable or enable Join Suppression on all of
our XORP routers, too.  Is this possible?

 

If not, where in the code should I look to change this?

I'd look in the pim/ directory.  I'm not sure where (haven't looked), but
if you get stuck, let me know and I'll see if I can give a better hint.

The 'scons check' hasn't completed..but this is at least close.  If 'scons check'
passes..any objections to this patch going into 1.7?

This patch:

*  Makes bgp compile with shared libraries.
*  Fixes up some utils and libxipc stuff to compile for the bgp harness.
*  Fixes bgp harness logic to work with new path layout.
*  Runs xorp bgp harness logic when 'scons check' is requested.
*  Fixes some BGP asserts I found in xorp.ct testing.

Ben

One way to do this is adding the path/depends/targetname in etc/template/mydaemon.tp if you treat the new daemon as a protocol. Then rtrmgr is smart to know how to deal with it.

I had forgotten to commit a few files, but after adding those last
night, the buildbot seems to have a clean build, including the new
bgp tests.  (A one test fails, but I think that might be as much
an error in the test harness as bgp itself, and I get the same
issue in xorp.ct currently).

If that is sufficient, I'd say lets try a 1.7 release.  Otherwise,
let me know if you think we should make more changes to 1.7
and I'll work on them.

Thanks,
Ben

Hi,

I checked earlier threads for this same error, but it is still not working
with me. I'd appreciate your help. Little bit of info about my environment:

Operating system: Scientific Linux
Kernel: 2.6.18-164.15.1.el5

Upon trying to run ./configure on xorp-1.6, I received the following error
message:

*Could not find part of OpenSSL or one it's components*

To resolve this, I was asked to install openssl-devel, so I tried doing
that, but then I recieve this error message:

*Error: Missing Dependency: openssl = 0.9.8e-12.el5 is needed by package
openssl-devel-0.9.8e-12.el5.i386*

However, I do have the latest version of openssl 0.9.8e-12.el5 already
installed, I verified this.


I am stuck here right now, and I cannot move forward. I would appreciate all
pointers.

Thank you

That is an issue with your OS package management.

You might also try xorp.ct or the latest from SVN as 1.6 is not in
active development.

Subject: [Xorp-hackers] XORP socket buffers
Message-ID: <20100524153658.0654274f@vetiniari.doc.ic.ac.uk>

Hello all,

I was trying to get information about the buffers XORP uses when you
use its TCP socket interface to send and receive messages. In
particular the size of the buffer(s). I was looking at
libxorp/asyncio.{hh.cc} and noticed the BufferInfo class which has this:

size_t buffer_bytes() const { return (_buffer_bytes); }

The part I'm not sure about is if the AsyncFileReader defined in
asyncio.hh is what is actually used by the TCP sockets in XORP, and if
it isn't how would one get the actual buffer size?

Subject: [Xorp-hackers] Considering moving xorp.ct to github
Message-ID: <4C018165.3080708@candelatech.com>

I'm becoming disgruntled with lack of ability to actually upload files
to Xorp's sourceforge page, manage it's bug tracker, or do anything else
to help officially release xorp 1.7.  It seems that all of the admins
don't have time or interest in helping the process along.

So, I'm considering making xorp.ct a bit more official and host it
on github instead of our company DMZ machine.  I have a full git repo
cloned from the upstream SVN, so we shouldn't loose any history, and
if the sourceforge project admins ever become active again, it will
not be any more difficult to merge changes back to the svn repo than
it already is.

I will hold off on this a day or two to see what response this email gets,
but only a few days.  All are welcome to comment with whatever opinions
and suggestions come to mind.

Thanks,
Ben

Hello all,

Thank you first for helping me in my previous issue, I was able to compile
XORP successfully on my machine. I have a problem now with the
configuration, and I am hoping you can assist me with it. I'll try to make
it short and simple:

I have three Cisco routers, (1800 series, one statically assigned as an RP),
one streamer (vlc server), one sink (vlc-client), I have successfully
managed to implement multicasting using PIM-SM on the three routers,
eventually I streamed a video and it worked. My task now is to replace one
of the routers with a XORP one, and maintain the same behavior like before.
Upon running XORP, I received the following error:

*[ 2010/05/29 19:48:52 WARNING xorp_fea FEA ] proto_socket_read() failed: RX
packet from 132.205.9.2 to 224.0.0.13 pif_index 2: no vif found
*
There appears to be a problem with the OSPF hand-shaking between the XORP
and the RP router. I just started using XORP, so any helpful pointers are
highly appreciated, thank you guys. I pasted my configuration below, let me
know if you need me to provide you with more information:

Can you send the complete xorp log?  Also, is this xorp.ct that you are running?

Please also show me the output of 'ip addr show' on the linux command line
and 'show interfaces' within xorpsh.


Thanks,
Ben

Subject: [Xorp-hackers] Definition for BGP damping parameters are not
	defined in xorp-1.6 user manual
Message-ID: <989229.46709.qm@web94810.mail.in2.yahoo.com>

Hello Bruce,
In the Xorp User Manual,BGP damping parameters? in the 
configuration syntax have not been defined.Also their default values and
 the ranges to be used have not been mentioned in the manual.

1)half-life:
 int
2)max-suppress: int
3)reuse: int
4)suppress: 
int

Can you please suggest me any xorp 
related documents or links where I can get the definitions of the above parameters.

Also in the xorp-1.6 manual,in Chapter 11 Policy, MED has been used in match conditions for filtering BGP routes,but there is no parameter MED(to configure) in the configuration syntax of BGP .

Does Xorp implements?  BGP MULTI_EXIT_DISC (MED)? or not.
Also I want to know whether Xorp has BGP Graceful Restart Mechanism or not.

Looking from the BGP standards section in the manual,both of them were not implemented into xorp.

Any help in this regard is really grateful.

Thank you,
T.Raga
 Naresh.
