ENABLE DYNAMIC ROUTING ======================================================================= >>> This document contains the instructions of how to enable >>> dynamic Routing support for XBone running on either Linux >>> or FreeBSD ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Requirement ----------------------------------------------------------------------- XBone uses an existing Routing Software "Quagga" to support Dynamic Routing. "Quagga" can be installed through ports on FreeBSD; For Linux, download the source tar ball from http://www.quagga.net, unpack and install it. You should specify the zebra home directory in which zebra conf files , such as zebra.conf, ripd.conf and ripngd.conf locate, in every rd's configure file. For example, if the machine add.isi.edu is one RD in the overlay deployed by XBone, you should set the following entry correctly in add.conf: zebra_dir = /usr/local/etc/ Then on every RD, 1. run chmod -R 777 /var/run 2 run: cp xbone/conf/zebra.conf.sample $zebra_dir/zebra.conf cp xbone/conf/ripd.conf.sample $zebra_dir/ripd.conf cp xbone/conf/ripngd.conf.sample $zebra_dir/ripngd.conf change the line "hostname tlc.isi.edu" to "hostname your machine's hostname" for zebra.conf, ripd.conf and ripngd.conf respectively. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Note ------------------------------------------------------------------------ It may take some time for routing information on RDs to converge.
