Assume this: Machine A sends a packet to machine B, no application in machine B is waiting for the packet, Now: What happens in kernel? What happens to this packet exactly?
View 6 RepliesI've got an application that compiles in Windows and Linux and is using UDP multicast to communicate. I'm running it on a Windows machine, a Linux machine and a small board (Gumstix) that is running Linux as well. The Windows and Linux machines have no problems sending/receiving packets with each other. The Gumstix and Linux machines have no problems sending/receiving packets with each other. The Gumstix can also send/receive packets with two instances of the application both running on the Gumstix.
But when running on the Gumstix I can send udp multicast packets to Windows, but cannot receive them. (It works if I do point to point with a known IP port#, but not multicast.) I can run tcpdump on the Gumstix and see the packets, but they are not being received on my socket. Here's what tcpdump (running on the Gumstix) outputs when sending the same packet from different sources. Notice the IP header ID and flags (don't fragment) are different when coming from Windows.

I've tried everything I can think of to get this to work but am not getting anywhere. Also I'm pretty inexperienced when it comes to Linux. Anything I could try to be able to receive udp multicast packets from Windows?

I need to receive a number of raw ethernet packets (say, 100 packets) into a user-mode accessible buffer large enough to hold all the packets. The way I have done this so far is by looping over the recvfrom() system call 100 times, passing an incremented pointer addressing the location in my buffer to store the packet. Is there a way to receive the 100 packets into my buffer with one system call, perhaps by instructing the kernel to DMA the 100 packets into my buffer?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am trying to do something outlandish with iptables (or so I think!).I have a source sending udp packets to a destination (say dst11). Using port mirroring I am able to get all these packets to a different machine (say dst22). I am able to see these packets on dst22 interface using tcpdump.I want to analyze the packets on dst22. So what I do is put dst22 interface in promiscuous mode (using ifconfig eth0 promisc). This in theory should get the packet through the MAC layer. Now using iptables I am trying to DNAT the packets in nat prerouting to change the packets destination IP to dst22's interface and change the destination port.

I had been running my SMTP server with WINE, as the SMTP server software is a Windows-based program (MERCURY), but I cracked the shits with WINE and removed it. Now I am running my SMTP server in a Windows virtual machine.This virtual machine has a different IP address from my host machine, so what I need is for my computer (the host) to redirect incoming traffic on port 25 to the virtual machine at 192.168.56.101 on port 2525.Can someone please help me with it?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI've a webserver at 10.10.0.55. Above in the hierarchy are managed network cisco switch / router and ASA firewall (the usual stuff). I also have a mail server at 10.10.0.200. I was told by the network admin that he can't forward port 80 to webserver and port 25 to mail server. Basically he said that it's a one-to-one (external.ip-to-internal.ip) mapping and all traffic, no matter what port it's destined for must go to 10.10.0.55. So, I turn to the wonder that linux is. The webserver is running Centos 5.4. Currently, all packets on port 25 are coming to the webserver. I want to forward all these packets to the email server. Note: the webserver only has one interface: eth0. I turned to web for help and did this in iptables:
Code:
$IPT -A FORWARD -p tcp -s 0/0 -i eth0 -o eth0 -d 10.10.0.200 --dport 25 -m state --state NEW,ESTABLISHED,RELATED -j ACCEPT
It didn't work. I am assuming that since I only have one interface, a simple rule to the filter table and forward chain will not work.So i use the NAT table and try the following:
Code:
echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
$IPT -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp -i eth0 --dport 25 -j LOG --log-prefix PortForward: --log-level 7
$IPT -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp -i eth0 -d 68.***.26.*** --dport 25 -m state --state NEW,ESTABLISHED,RELATED -j DNAT --to-destination
[code]....
First of all, since there is no service/daemon listening on port 25 on the webserver, is it even going to work? Isn't the webserver simply going to discard packets on port 25? I am assuming that packets go through the iptables first, and so iptables should route the packets to the email server, where there is postfix listening on port 25. Am i right? Also, as you can see in the code above, all packets coming on port 25 on the webserver should be logged. But they aren't. In order to troubleshoot, I'd like to at least know that packets are coming into the iptables. But since it's not logging, I can't find out what's wrong.
I am trying to build a socket to retrieve the ethernet packets from ECU(I do not know much about the ECU). When i run my code on windows there is no problem and the code runs correctly. But when i run my code on Debian it gets stuck at s.recv(1024).
I have already set static ip in /etc/network/interfaces as follows:
Code: Select alliface eth0 inet static
address 160.48.199.91
netmask 255.255.255.0
gateway 160.48.199.254
The simple code is as below:
Code: Select all import socket
import sys
HOST = "160.48.199.91"
port = 30490
s = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_RAW, socket.IPPROTO_UDP)
s.bind((HOST, 30490))
while True:
data = s.recvfrom(1024)
print(data)
There is no LAN or Router. When i check netstat -s i see that there are 0 UDP and 0 TCP messages received. But when i check in Wireshark on Debian i could see the displayed UDP packets. Does it mean that the UDP packets are reaching the Raspberry Pi but not received by Debian ? Or are these packets being dropped?
I have three machines say A B and C. I want to make machine B as a router for A and C, so that the ping packets from C to A should be going via B. I have directly connected two interfaces(eth4) of A and B and similarly two interfaces(eth5) of B and C. I have even set up a route between B and C. 1. But I am not able to set a route between B and A.2. If I ping A from eth4 of B(viceversa) it works. When I ping B from eth5 of C it work but not the viceversa.3. Also, if I ping from C to A, B receives the packets, but not A.

One of our RHEL 5.3 servers has trouble about 30% of the time with TCP-based communications, but it does not seem to be firewall issues. From another computer on the same switch, you can SSH to the server sometimes and other times the SSH command will just hang. When it hangs, you can often just Ctrl+C and try it again and it works. Same with HTTP connections. You'll get part of a web page and then FireFox will just hang waiting for the rest and eventually time out. Same goes for communication initiated FROM the server. SSH'ing from the server to any outside server or connecting to any web site works sometimes, but most times not. iptables if off. No other firewalls are running. Tcpdump shows communication gets so far and then stops. It does not matter whether tou run tcpdump on that server or the client connecting to it. Either way you see the connection stops working. MEANWHILE, pinging with small or large packets works flawlessly. 10,000 packets, zero drops.

How can setup routing table for this,I have tried setting up routing and iptables, etc.. nothing helped.
If any one good router/networking guy, you should know this one.I am doing a project, I want this way to handle this.
I have a network like
Node A to Vlan Switch
Node B to Vlan Switch
Node C to Vlan Switch
Node B is set up to be a middle man between A and C.
All nodes have 1 NIC.
They are all linux boxes. Node B can ping Node C. When I try to ping Node C from Node A, the ping just hangs forever.
When I use Wireshark to sniff What's going on with Node B during a ping from Node A to Node C, I can see an ICMP request with src = Node A and dest = Node C. I'd like to know if that ICMP packet was received by B from A or if it is going out. If it's going out, that makes no sense since B knows how to send to C. If B is only getting the requests but not forwarding them, then I know there is something wrong with B's configuration.
So I'd like to be able to sniff incoming packets only, or outgoing packets only. Is there a way to do this?
I have a legacy application that communicates status to a remote server over UDP. The server app replies back to the client with UDP as well, using the IP address it obtains from the sockaddr parameter of the recvfrom() method.
Code:
[----------------] [----------------]
[ client <->(udp)]<----- Ethernet -----> [(udp)<-> server ]
[----------------] [----------------]
I'm trying to replace the underlying use of ethernet, with a RS232 based radio/modem device - without making any src changes to the legacy apps. i.e. apps would still create and transmit UDP packets addressed to a remote IP address and listening port, and the receiver wouldn't know any difference. I'm relatively new to this level of network programming, but my first attempt has been to write an app that sniffs out outbound raw UDP packets (using pcap), transmit that data over the radio, and re-injects the UDP unchanged on the remote end.
Code:
[----------------] [----------------]
[ client <->(udp)] [(udp)<-> server ]
[ | ] [ ^ ]
[ v ] [ | ]
[ /capture/]<---- Radio XMIT ----> [/reinject/ ]
[----------------] [----------------]
My 'capture' app intercepts the UDP packets just fine when the machine is 'plugged' in, but as soon as I disconnect my network cable to test wireless, outbound packets addressed to a remote IP (ie. the server) are no longer captured (tho local UDP packets are picked up ok). Wireshark also does not report the original outbound packet, but it does show an ICMP packet reporting 'Host Unreachable'. I understand the host isn't reachable, but I'm confused as to why the packet isn't at least making it to the interface/network card. Is there anyway to get the force the kernel to 'transmit' the UDP packet anyway so that my capture app can intercept it? or is there a better/easier solution (again, w/o making source changes to the client/server)?
