[Xorp-users] Remote static_routes process config. errors. Xorp 1.1 LiveCD

[Rafe]

All:

I'm trying to set up the following test network configuration (using only
static routing at this point):

Host A     --  Router B     --  Router C  --  Host D
(15.0.0.2)  (15.0.0.1)       (1.10.2.11)      (16.0.0.2)
                 (1.10.2.10)      (16.0.0.1)

Routers B and C are both running Xorp 1.1 from the LiveCD.

We have the static_routes process for each router on the same machine as its
rtrmgr at this point, and can successfully communicate between Host A and Host
D.

We'd like to move the static_routes process from either router to a different
machine, and have been trying to move Router B's static_routes process to
Router C without success.

Here is the procedure we've been following:
* Restart xorp_rtrmgr on router B (adding -i 1.10.2.10 -a 1.10.2.11 to the
commandline.
* Set XORP_FINDER_SERVER_ADDRESS=1.10.2.10 and
XORP_FINDER_CLIENT_ADDRESS=1.10.2.11 on Router C.
* Start a new static_routes process on Router C (with the -F 1.10.2.10 command
line option).  (Eventually we'd kill the static_routes process on router B, but
an error occurs before we get there).

When the new static_routes process (on router C) is started it prints the
following 3 error messages over and over, until a <ctrl-c> or core dump:

[ 2005/06/15 14:46:26 ERROR xorp_static_routes:4057 IPC +275 sockutil.cc
create_connected_ip_socket ] failed to connect to 127.0.0.1 port 1724:

[ 2005/06/15 14:46:26 ERROR xorp_static_routes:4057 XRL +55 xrl_pf_factory.cc

line 578 of xrl_pf_stcp.cc: Could not connect to 127.0.0.1:1724

[ 2005/06/15 14:46:26 ERROR xorp_static_routes:4057 XRL +358 xrl_router.cc
send_resolved ] Could not create XrlPFSender for protocol = "stcp" address =
"127.0.0.1:1724"

The port numbers displayed in the error messages change, but the address
remains 127.0.0.1.

What am I missing about how to relocate a routing process?  Could the problem
have something to do with running two static_routes processes on the same
machine? (i.e., Router C's static_routes process is running on router C, and
we're trying to get Router B's static_routes process to run on router C as
well).

Thanks for your help,

Rafe Thayer
