RE: ARP static entry


1/ The argument gateway passed to the function may not be correct
char gateway[] = {01, 10,10,10}; // to be confirm or {10,10,10,01};
Also before to call ioct() declares the routes static: 
rt->rt_flags|=RTF_STATIC; // static route: added by user. This avoid the 
route to be removed on timeout
 Make a break  point for debug in function ip_output() and follows your 
packet until arp_request(); 
Why you want to disable this roote after interface set up?

2/UDP is connectionless but it needs a route to send data. So if it does 
not know its route, IP layer uses ARP to found the route. "UDP and TCP" 
can have the same route. UDP  add entry to the tab.

3/ More than two network  interface can share the same MAC adress but they 
must have different IP adress. When IP packets arrived,  data are passed 
to the interface that match with IP address of the dest addr of the  IP 
packet. Of course the best way, since you use freebsd, is to  use  eth0 
for redboot and eth1 for your appli with different address MAC. You should 
configure the cdl file to enable eth1 if it's not done.

4/ About lwip, for me it's ok,  you have just to modifie the ethernet 
logical driver for lwip (eth_drv) to bypass arp: 
eCos\packages\io\eth\current\src\lwip\eth_drv

hope this can help you!

PS: en utilisant lwip tu peux economiser jusqu'Ã 150Mo surtout que t'ulise 
pas TCP qui represente la moitià de lwip. Si on parle pas un peu le 
franÃais, on risque de se faire taper par chirac :)

Thanks Birahim.

What I'm trying to do is modify the stack so that all configuration will 
be
static (no DNS and no ARP). Everything (Host name, IP Address and MAC
Address) will be known in advance and read from a configuration file to
configure the stack. My network is a closed network and it needs to be up
and running really fast after a reset, so there is no time (and need) to 
use
DNS and ARP protocols. Also, I only need to use UDP packet.

The first step I thaught to do is to add a static entry to the ARP and the
next step would have been to disable it.

I used the code posted by Sebastien to add a route in ARP table, ioctl()
returns 0 (no error), show_network_tables() show me a new route for
10.10.10.90 (but the gateway is 10.10.10.90) so the route is probably not
good. The first time I send a packet to 10.10.10.90, I see the ARP request
and reply packets on the wire... That confirms that the route/entry is not
good.

I removed the code to add the entry to ARP table and call
show_network_tables() after the first packet is sent and the ARP protocol
has done is job, but I don't see the new entry (I have four entries, two 
on
eth0 (0.0.0.0 and 10.10.10.0) and two for lo0).

I have two questions: 

1- does UDP packet add entry to the table? UDP is connectionless, maybe 
the
route is saved elsewhere or differently.

2- The target machine is running eCos with Redboot. Both have an IP 
Address
but only are using the same MAC. The route should be to Redboot (that will
pass it to eCos)? That is what I see with Ethereal, Ethernet destination 
is
Redboot and IP destination is eCos.


For LwIp, I will definitely take a look at it, but I will wait that the
patches to the latest version will be accepted.


Thanks,
Michael

The code posted by Sebastien just add a route in ARP table but does not 
disable/bypass the ARP protocole.  What does the function ioct returns?
use  show_network_tables(); to print all routes:

typedef int  pfunc( const char *fmt, ... ) 
CYGBLD_ATTRIB_PRINTF_FORMAT(1,2); 
externC void show_network_tables(pfunc *pfct);// 
packages/net/bsd_tcpip/current/src/ecos/support.c

show_network_tables(diag_printf);// show all routes.
Why you don't use use LWIP stack? you can easily remove the ARP protocole.
Give more informations about your project.

[ECOS] ARP static entry






Hi,
  I need to enter some entries in the ARP table to bypass the ARP protocol
with the FreeBSD stack.

I started by using the code that came with this previous post:
http://sourceware.org/ml/ecos-discuss/2005-09/msg00023.html but I canât 
make
it work.

Say that I want to link the IP Address 10.10.10.90 to Ethernet Address
00:07:E9:E3:07:A7, what will the parameters be to the call of AddMAC
function?

Any help/suggestion will be greatly appreciated. Iâm new to eCos and
networking stuff, so Iâm a little lost hereâ


Thanks,
Michael

liste,
tu peux me faire un reply en franÃais.
