kernel IPv6 multicast routing support. pim6 dense mode daemon pim6 sparse mode daemon netstat support of IPv6 multicast routing statistics Merging to the current and testing with other existing multicast routers is done by Tatsuya Jinmei <jinmei@kame.net>, who writes and maintainances the base code in KAME distribution. Make world check and kernel build check was also successful.

WARNING! WARNING! WARNING!
|
|
THIS RELEASE IS VERY ALPHA, SO PLEASE DO NOT REDISTRIBUTE AND
|
|
DO NOT TRY IT OUTSIDE OF YOUR TESTBED.
|
|
|
|
This is README for pimd, the PIM multicast daemon.
|
|
PIM-SM version: 2
|
|
Check ftp://catarina.usc.edu/pub/pim/pimd/ for lastest version.
|
|
|
|
SUPPORTED PLATFORMS: FreeBSD-2.2.*, SunOS-4.1.3, Solaris-2.5.1 and 2.6,
|
|
SGI, BSDI 3.0/3.1, NetBSD-1.3
|
|
|
|
AVAILABLE PIM kernel patches: FreeBSD-2.2.1, FreeBSD-2.2.2, FreeBSD-2.2,5,
|
|
SunOS-4.1.3, SGI, BSDI-3.0, BSDI-3.1, NetBSD-1.3
|
|
|
|
Linux: pimd compiles under Linux, and linux-2.1.103 seems to have PIM-SMv2
|
|
kernel support, but I haven't tested whether the kernel patches really work.
|
|
|
|
FAST START (read "fast explanation" :))
|
|
|
|
1. Apply the PIM kernel patches, recompile, reboot
|
|
|
|
2. Copy pimd.conf to /etc and edit as appropriate. Disable the interfaces
|
|
you don't need. Note that you need at least 2 physical interfaces enabled.
|
|
|
|
3. Edit Makefile by uncommenting the line(s) corresponding to your platform.
|
|
|
|
4. Recompile pimd
|
|
|
|
5. Run pimd as a root. It is highly recommended to run it in debug mode.
|
|
Because there are many debug messages, you can specify only a subset of
|
|
the messages to be printed out:
|
|
|
|
usage: pimd [-c configfile] [-d [debug_level][,debug_level]]
|
|
|
|
Valid debug levels: dvmrp_prunes,dvmrp_mrt,dvmrp_neighbors,dvmrp_timers,igmp_proto,igmp_timers,igmp_members,trace,timeout,pkt,interfaces,kernel,cache,rsrr,pim_hello,pim_register,pim_join_prune,pim_bootstrap,pim_asserts,pim_cand_rp,pim_routes,pim_timers,pim_rpf
|
|
|
|
If you want to see all messages, use "pimd -d" only.
|
|
|
|
6. Note that it takes of the order of 30 seconds to 1 minute until the
|
|
Bootstrap router is elected and the RP-set distributed to the PIM routers,
|
|
and without the RP-set in the routers the multicast packets cannot be
|
|
forwarded.
|
|
|
|
7. There are plenty of bugs, some of them known (check BUGS.TODO),
|
|
some of them unknown, so your bug reports are more than welcome.

* The "up to the March '97 I-D spec" + RSVP support pimd version was done
|
|
during my summer'97 intern in Sun Microsystems under Michael Speer's
|
|
supervision.
