wan to br0 and docker question #52

Closed Mikei386 closed 5 years ago

Mikei386 commented 5 years ago

First of all thank you so much for your work here. It's making things quite easy.

Since I want to use my 1200AC as a switch and docker on it, I would like to know if it's possible to add the wan port to the brige (switch port 1-4). In DD-WRT it was possible to use the wan port like a 5th switch port.

Also I tried to install an docker container wich worked but it won't create a network bridge since it can't connect to the br0. Not quite sure whats that about. Maybe you have some ideas already?

Thanks a lot.

I tested an AP mode with the McDebian beta.

Thanks a lot. It's working now. One thing I spotted with the beta release is that now my CPU temperature isn't showing anymore. (WRT1200AC v2)

root@MCDEBIAN:/# sensors tmp421-i2c-0-4c Adapter: mv64xxx_i2c adapter DDR: +39.8°C WIFI: +41.8°C

As far as docker concerns, I red some posts which suggests it might be a problem with the way the kernel is configured. Since the message failed to create endpoint <name> on network bridge appears is coming from the kernel. So I guess no luck there.

Thanks for the feed back,

I'm not sure what happened to the sensors cpu temp.

@Mikei386 in the end, did you manage to use docker ?

Mikei386 commented 5 years ago

Sadly no. I instead switched to OpenWRT and installed OpenWRT-LXC. So I now have LCX Containers with Debian inside running on OpenWRT. Works like charm.

nicolaerosia commented 5 years ago

@Mikei386 Thanks! You're running vanilla OpenWRT and use LXC? Did you have to build your own kernel?

Mikei386 commented 5 years ago

I build my own version of OpenWRT since there are many components (such as wireless lan or pppoe) which I removed and then selected the LXC components.
