.Sh NAME
|
|
.Nm ng_mppc
|
|
.Nd Microsoft MPPC/MPPE compression and encryption netgraph node type
|
|
.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.In sys/types.h
|
|
.In netgraph/ng_mppc.h
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm mppc
|
|
node type implements the Microsoft Point-to-Point Compression (MPPC)
|
|
and Microsoft Point-to-Point Encryption (MPPE) sub-protocols of
|
|
the PPP protocol.
|
|
These protocols are often used in conjunction with the Point-to-Point
|
|
Tunneling Protocol (PPTP).
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The node has two hooks,
|
|
.Dv "comp"
|
|
for compression and
|
|
.Dv "decomp"
|
|
for decompression.
|
|
Typically one or both of these hooks would be connected to the
|
|
.Xr ng_ppp 4
|
|
node type hook of the same name.
|
|
Each direction of traffic flow is independent of the other.
|
|
.Sh HOOKS
|
|
This node type supports the following hooks:
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Bl -tag -compact -width vjc_vjuncomp
|
|
.It Dv comp
|
|
Connection to
|
|
.Xr ng_ppp 4
|
|
.Dv "comp"
|
|
hook.
|
|
Incoming frames are compressed and/or encrypted, and sent
|
|
back out the same hook.
|
|
.It Dv decomp
|
|
Connection to
|
|
.Xr ng_ppp 4
|
|
.Dv "decomp"
|
|
hook.
|
|
Incoming frames are decompressed and/or decrypted, and sent
|
|
back out the same hook.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Sh CONTROL MESSAGES
|
|
This node type supports the generic control messages, plus the following:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width foo
|
|
.It Dv NGM_MPPC_CONFIG_COMP
|
|
This command resets and configures the node for a session in the
|
|
outgoing traffic direction (i.e., for compression and/or encryption).
|
|
This command takes a
|
|
.Dv "struct ng_mppc_config"
|
|
as an argument:
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset 0n
|
|
/* Length of MPPE key */
|
|
#define MPPE_KEY_LEN 16
|
|
|
|
/* MPPC/MPPE PPP negotiation bits */
|
|
#define MPPC_BIT 0x00000001 /* mppc compression bits */
|
|
#define MPPE_40 0x00000020 /* use 40 bit key */
|
|
#define MPPE_128 0x00000040 /* use 128 bit key */
|
|
#define MPPE_BITS 0x00000060 /* mppe encryption bits */
|
|
#define MPPE_STATELESS 0x01000000 /* use stateless mode */
|
|
#define MPPC_VALID_BITS 0x01000061 /* possibly valid bits */
|
|
|
|
/* Configuration for a session */
|
|
struct ng_mppc_config {
|
|
u_char enable; /* enable */
|
|
u_int32_t bits; /* config bits */
|
|
u_char startkey[MPPE_KEY_LEN]; /* start key */
|
|
};
|
|
|
|
.Ed
|
|
The
|
|
.Dv enabled
|
|
field enables traffic flow through the node.
|
|
The
|
|
.Dv bits
|
|
field contains the bits as negotiated by the Compression Control Protocol
|
|
(CCP) in PPP.
|
|
The
|
|
.Dv startkey
|
|
is only necessary if MPPE was negotiated, and must be equal to the
|
|
session start key as defined for MPPE.
|
|
This key is based on the MS-CHAP credentials used at link authentication time.
|
|
.It Dv NGM_MPPC_CONFIG_DECOMP
|
|
This command resets and configures the node for a session in the
|
|
incoming traffic direction (i.e., for decompression and/or decryption).
|
|
This command takes a
|
|
.Dv "struct ng_mppc_config"
|
|
as an argument.
|
|
.It Dv NGM_MPPC_RESETREQ
|
|
This message contains no arguments, and is bi-directional.
|
|
If an error is detected during decompression, this message is sent by the
|
|
node to the originator of the
|
|
.Dv NGM_MPPC_CONFIG_DECOMP
|
|
message that initiated the session.
|
|
The receiver should respond by sending a PPP CCP Reset-Request to the peer.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
This message may also be received by this node type when a CCP Reset-Request
|
|
is received by the local PPP entity.
|
|
The node will respond by flushing its outgoing compression and encryption
|
|
state so the remote side can resynchronize.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Sh SHUTDOWN
|
|
This node shuts down upon receipt of a
|
|
.Dv NGM_SHUTDOWN
|
|
control message, or when both hooks have been disconnected.
|
|
.Sh COMPILATION
|
|
The kernel options
|
|
.Dv NETGRAPH_MPPC_COMPRESSION
|
|
and
|
|
.Dv NETGRAPH_MPPC_ENCRYPTION
|
|
are supplied to selectively compile in either or both capabilities.
|
|
At least one of these must be defined, or else this node type is useless.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The MPPC protocol requires proprietary compression code available
|
|
from Hi/Fn (formerly STAC).
|
|
These files must be obtained elsewhere and added to the kernel
|
|
sources before this node type will compile with the
|
|
.Dv NETGRAPH_MPPC_COMPRESSION
|
|
option.
|
|
.Sh BUGS
|
|
In PPP, encryption should be handled by the Encryption Control Procotol (ECP)
|
|
rather than CCP.
|
|
However, Microsoft combined both compression and encryption into their
|
|
``compression'' algorithm, which is confusing.
