This directory contains a port of ipfw and dummynet to Linux/OpenWrt (including PlanetLab) and Windows. This version of ipfw and dummynet is called "ipfw3" as it is the third major rewrite of the code. The source code here comes straight from FreeBSD (roughly the version in HEAD as of February 2010), plus some glue code and headers written from scratch. Unless specified otherwise, all the code here is under a BSD license.
Specific build instructions are below, and in general produce
a kernel module, ipfw_mod.ko (ipfw_mod.sys on windows)
a userland program, /sbin/ipfw (ipfw.exe on windows)which you need to install on your system.

=========== INSTALL/REMOVE INSTRUCTIONS ========================
FreeBSD, OSX: INSTALL: kldload ipfw.ko ; kldload dummynet.ko REMOVE: kldunload dummynet.ko; kldunload ipfw.ko
Linux INSTALL:
# Do the following as root
insmod ./dummynet2/ipfw_mod.ko
cp ipfw/ipfw /usr/local/sbin
REMOVE:
rmmod ipfw_mod.koOpenWRT INSTALL: # use the correct name for your system opkg install kmod-ipfw3_2.4.35.4-brcm-2.4-1_mipsel.ipk #install ls -l ls -l /lib/modules/2.4.35.4/ipfw* # check insmod /lib/modules/2.4.35.4/ipfw_mod.o # load the module /lib/modules/2.4.35.4/ipfw show # launch the userspace tool REMOVE: rmmod ipfw_mod.o # remove the module
Windows: INSTALL THE NDIS DRIVER
- open the configuration panel for the network card in use
(right click on the icon on the SYSTRAY, or go to
Control Panel -> Network and select one card)
- click on Properties->Install->Service->Add
- click on 'Driver Disk' and select 'netipfw.inf' in this folder
- select 'ipfw+dummynet' which is the only service you should see
- click accept on the warnings for the installation of an unknown
driver (roughly twice per existing network card)
Now you are ready to use the emulator. To configure it, open a 'cmd'
window and you can use the ipfw command from the command line.
Otherwise click on the 'TESTME.bat' which is a batch program that
runs various tests.
REMOVE:
- select a network card as above.
- click on Properties
- select 'ipfw+dummynet'
- click on 'Remove'=================== BUILD INSTRUCTIONS ==========================
* Windows XP ** You can find a pre-built version in the binary/ subdirectory. To build your own version of the package you need:
MSVC DDK available from ... http://www.microsoft.com/whdc/DevTools/WDK/WDKpkg.mspx
optionally, DbgView if you want to see diagnostic http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb896647.aspx
cygwin, http://www.cygwin.com/ with base packages, make, c compiler, possibly an editor and subversion.
Open a shell from cygwin, move to this directory, and simply run "make". The output of the build will be in this directory, made of 4 files: ipfw.exe (you also need cygwin.dll) ipfw.sys (an NDIS intermediate filter driver) dummynet.inf and dummynet_m.inf (installer files)
---- INSTALL INSTRUCTION ---
* Linux 2.6.x **
make KERNELPATH=/path/to/linux USRDIR=/path/to/usr
where the two variables are optional an point to the linux kernel
sources and the /usr directory. Defaults are USRDIR=/usr and
KERNELPATH=/lib/modules/`uname -r`/build --- XXX check ?
NOTE: make sure CONFIG_NETFILTER is enabled in the kernel
configuration file. You need the ncurses devel library,
that can be installed according your distro with:
apt-get install ncurses-dev # for debian based distro
yum -y install ncurses-dev # for fedora based distro
You can enable CONFIG_NETFILTER by doingdevel:
"(cd ${KERNELPATH}; make menuconfig)"
and enabling the option listed below:
Networking --->
Networking options --->
[*] Network packet filtering framework (Netfilter)
If you have not yet compiled your kernel source, you need to
prepare the build environment:
(cd $(KERNELPATH); make oldconfig; make prepare; make scripts)Linux 2.4.x
Almost as above, with an additional VER=2.4
make VER=2.4 KERNELPATH=...
For 2.4, if KERNELPATH is not specified then we use
KERNELPATH ?= /usr/src/`uname -r`/build
You need to follow the same instruction for the 2.6 kernel, enabling
netfilter in the kernel options:
Networking options --->
[*] Network packet filtering (replaces ipchains)Openwrt package
(Tested with kamikaze_8.09.1 and Linux 2.4)
+ Download and extract the OpenWrt package, e.g.
wget http://downloads.openwrt.org/kamikaze/8.09.1/kamikaze_8.09.1_source.tar.bz2
tar xvjf kamikaze_8.09.1_source.tar.bz2
+ move to the directory with the OpenWrt sources (the one that
contains Config.in, rules.mk ...)
cd kamikaze_8.09.1
+ Optional: to be sure that the tools are working, make a first
build as follows:
- run "make menuconfig" and set the correct target device,
drivers, and so on;
- run "make" to do the build
+ Add ipfw3 to the openwrt package, as follows:
- copy the code from this directory to the place used for the build:
cp -Rp /path_to_ipfw3 ../ipfw3;
If you want, you can fetch a newer version from the web
(cd ..; rm -rf ipfw3; \
wget http://info.iet.unipi.it/~luigi/dummynet/ipfw3-latest.tgz;\
tar xvzf ipfw3-latest.tgz)
- run the following commands:
(mkdir package/ipfw3; \
cp ../ipfw3/Makefile.openwrt package/ipfw3/Makefile)
to create the package/ipfw3 directory in the OpenWrt source
directory, and copy Makefile.openwrt to package/ipfw3/Makefile ;
- if necessary, edit package/ipfw3/Makefile and set IPFW_DIR to point to
the directory ipfw3, which contains the sources;
- run "make menuconfig" and select kmod-ipfw3 as a module <M> in
Kernel Modules -> Other modules -> kmod-ipfw3
- run "make" to build the package, "make V=99" for verbose build.
- to modify the code, assuming you are in directory "kamikaze_8.09.1"
(cd ../ipfw3 && vi ...the files you are interested in )
rm -rf build_dir/linux-brcm-2.4/kmod-ipfw3
make package/ipfw3/compile V=99
The resulting package is located in bin/packages/mipsel/kmod-ipfw3*,
upload the file and install on the target system, as follows:
opkg install kmod-ipfw3_2.4.35.4-brcm-2.4-1_mipsel.ipk #install
ls -l ls -l /lib/modules/2.4.35.4/ipfw* # check
insmod /lib/modules/2.4.35.4/ipfw_mod.o # load the module
/lib/modules/2.4.35.4/ipfw show # launch the userspace tool
rmmod ipfw_mod.o # remove the modulePLANETLAB BUILD (within a slice) These instruction can be used by PlanetLab developers to compile the dummynet module on a node. To install the module on the node users need root access in root context. PlanetLab users that want to use the dummynet package should ask to PlanetLab support for nodes with dummynet emulation capabilities.
Follow the instructions below. You can just cut&paste
# install the various tools if not available
sudo yum -y install subversion rpm-build rpm-devel m4 redhat-rpm-config make gcc
# new build installation requires the gnupg package
sudo yum -y install gnupg
# create and move to a work directory
mkdir -p test
# extract a planetlab distribution to directory XYZ
(cd test; svn co http://svn.planet-lab.org/svn/build/trunk XYZ)
# copy the planetlab/*mk files here, overriding existing ones
cp planetlab/*mk test/XYZ
# download the specfiles and do some patching.
# Results are into SPEC/ (takes 5 minutes)
(cd test/XYZ; make stage1=true PLDISTRO=planetlab )
# Building the slice code is fast, the root code takes longer
# as it needs to rebuild the whole kernel
(cd test/XYZ; sudo make ipfwslice ipfwroot)
The kernel dependency phase is a bit time consuming, but does not
need to be redone if we are changing the ipfw sources only.
To clean up the code do
(cd test/XYZ; sudo make ipfwroot-clean ipfwslice-clean)
then after you have updated the repository again
(cd test/XYZ; sudo make ipfwslice ipfwroot)--- other, instructions (to be verified) ---
To build a kernel module for the PlanetLab distribution you need a build system. For an up-to-date and detailed information on how to build a local myplc installation, a local mirror, a PlanetLab test system see[1]
To create a build system you need to do the following steps:
install CentOS 5, detailed information[2]
1.A download the image from the main site[3] for example:
wget http://mi.mirror.garr.it/mirrors/CentOS/5.4/isos/i386/CentOS-5.4-i386-netinstall.iso
1.B Add the repository
cat >> /etc/yum.repos.d/dhozac-vserver.repo <<EOF [dhozac-vserver] name=Linux-VServer related packages for CentOS $releasever - $basearch baseurl=http://rpm.hozac.com/dhozac/centos/$releasever/vserver/$basearch gpgkey=http://rpm.hozac.com/conf/keys/RPM-DHOZAC-GPG-KEY EOF
1.C Update, install and config the system
yum update yum yum install kernel yum install util-vserver{,-core,-lib,-sysv,-build} yum install vim yum install subversion /etc/init.d/vprocunhide start chkconfig vservers-default on
create a vserver
2.A Checkout the planetlab build
cd svn co http://svn.planet-lab.org/svn/build/trunk svn-build
2.B Search for a working RPM distribution in:
http://build.onelab.eu/onelab/
http://build.onelab.eu/onelab/2008.03.02--onelab-f8-linux32/RPMS/
2.C Creating a vserver
cd ~/svn-build ./vtest-init-vserver.sh -f f8 -d onelab -p linux32 mybuild \ http://build.onelab.eu/onelab/2008.03.02--onelab-f8-linux32/RPMS/ \ -- --interface eth0:138.96.255.221 --hostname vnode01.inria.fr &> mybuild.log&
create the build
3.A Enter on the vserver, and create the build
vserver mybuild enter cd \ svn co http://svn.planet-lab.org/svn/build/trunk build
build
4.A build[4] cd /build
make distclean
make stage1=true PLDISTRO=onelab
make ipfw
cd /build/CODEBASE rm -rf ipfw
svn+ssh://onelab2.iet.unipi.it/home/svn/ports-luigi/dummynet-branches/ipfw_mod ./ipfw
wget http://info.iet.unipi.it/~luigi/dummynet/ipfw_mod-latest.tgz
tar xvzf ipfw_mod-latest.tgzrm -rf SOURCES/ipfw rm -rf BUILD/ipfw-0.1/ rm -rf SRPMS/ipfw rm -rf RPMS/i386/ipfw* make ipfw
download and install sources into a node
5.A Copy RPMS into the node and install it:
exit
scp /vserver/mybuild/build/RPMS/i386/ipfw-* root@node.iet.unipi.it:
ssh root@node.iet.unipi.it
rpm -e ipfwroot
rpm -ivh ./ipfwroot-0-9...TAB
modprobe ipfw_mod
5.B This step is alternative to the previous on, it avoids to install the new rpm file.
rmmod ipfw_mod
scp /vserver/mybuild/build/RPMS/i386/ipfw-* root@node.iet.unipi.it:
ssh root@node.iet.unipi.it
mkdir tmp mv ipfw*.rpm tmp cd tmp rpm2cpio ipfwroot-0...TAB | cpio -id cd ..
insmod /tmp/lib/modules/*/net/netfilter/ipfw_mod.ko
