[PATCH] ax25ipd

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]


I've been sitting on this code for about a week, and it's
been running fine here.  I've made a few small changes, mostly
to the comments.

1. This patch adds the ability to route packets over axip
links that are not from the gateway callsign.

2.  Integrates the Dynamic DNS patch and uses mutex and
a thread as suggested.

3.   If DNS fails during startup for a route, the IP of a route is set
to 0. Then later, after about an hour or so, DNS for the
route is checked again.

4.  ax25ipd.conf has two new flags for routes.  l and p.

route KE6I-1 0.0.0.0 l

The route to KE6I-1 will be updated based on the IP
addresses of incoming packets.

route KE6I-2 ke6i.ampr.org p

the 'p' flag forces the code to not recheck DNS later for
this route.   If DNS fails at startup, however, DNS will
be checked until it succeeds, and then DNS will not be checked
again.


ax25ipd should route as before, except in the case when packets
not from the callsign of the route but from the same IP
would have gone to the default route, they now will go to the
ip from which they originate. (Ugh, that's an awkward sentence.)


Anyway, let me know what you think, good or bad.
