The reasoning behind this, is that if we are consistent in our documentation about the uint*_t stuff, people will be less tempted to write new code that uses the non-standard types. I am not going to bump the man page dates, as these changes can be considered style nits. The meaning of the man pages is unaffected. MFC after: 1 month

.Dt NG_L2TP 4
|
|
.Os
|
|
.Sh NAME
|
|
.Nm ng_l2tp
|
|
.Nd L2TP protocol netgraph node type
|
|
.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.In sys/types.h
|
|
.In netgraph/ng_l2tp.h
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm l2tp
|
|
node type implements the encapsulation layer of the L2TP protocol
|
|
as described in RFC 2661.
|
|
This includes adding the L2TP packet header for outgoing packets
|
|
and verifying and removing it for incoming packets.
|
|
The node maintains the L2TP sequence number state and handles
|
|
control session packet acknowledgment and retransmission.
|
|
.Sh HOOKS
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm l2tp
|
|
node type supports the following hooks:
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Bl -tag -compact -offset indent -width ".Dv session_hhhh"
|
|
.It Dv lower
|
|
L2TP frames.
|
|
.It Dv ctrl
|
|
Control packets.
|
|
.It Dv session_hhhh
|
|
Session 0xhhhh data packets.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
L2TP control and data packets are transmitted to, and received from,
|
|
the L2TP peer via the
|
|
.Dv lower
|
|
hook.
|
|
Typically this hook would be connected to the
|
|
.Dv "inet/dgram/udp"
|
|
hook of an
|
|
.Xr ng_ksocket 4
|
|
node for L2TP over UDP.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Dv ctrl
|
|
hook connects to the local L2TP management entity.
|
|
L2TP control messages (without any L2TP headers) are transmitted
|
|
and received on this hook.
|
|
Messages written to this hook are guaranteed to be delivered to the
|
|
peer reliably, in order, and without duplicates.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Packets written to the
|
|
.Dv ctrl
|
|
hook must contain a two byte session ID prepended to the frame
|
|
(in network order).
|
|
This session ID is copied to the outgoing L2TP header.
|
|
Similarly, packets read from the
|
|
.Dv ctrl
|
|
hook will have the received session ID prepended.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Once an L2TP session has been created, the corresponding session
|
|
hook may be used to transmit and receive the session's data frames:
|
|
for the session with session ID
|
|
.Dv 0xabcd ,
|
|
the hook is named
|
|
.Dv session_abcd .
|
|
.Sh CONTROL MESSAGES
|
|
This node type supports the generic control messages, plus the following:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width indent
|
|
.It Dv NGM_L2TP_SET_CONFIG
|
|
This command updates the configuration of the node.
|
|
It takes a
|
|
.Vt "struct ng_l2tp_config"
|
|
as an argument:
|
|
.Bd -literal
|
|
/* Configuration for a node */
|
|
struct ng_l2tp_config {
|
|
u_char enabled; /* enables traffic flow */
|
|
u_char match_id; /* tunnel id must match 'tunnel_id' */
|
|
uint16_t tunnel_id; /* local tunnel id */
|
|
uint16_t peer_id; /* peer's tunnel id */
|
|
uint16_t peer_win; /* peer's max recv window size */
|
|
uint16_t rexmit_max; /* max retransmits before failure */
|
|
uint16_t rexmit_max_to; /* max delay between retransmits */
|
|
};
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Va enabled
|
|
field enables packet processing.
|
|
Each time this field is changed back to zero the sequence
|
|
number state is reset.
|
|
In this way, reuse of a node is possible.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Va tunnel_id
|
|
field configures the local tunnel ID for the control connection.
|
|
The
|
|
.Va match_id
|
|
field determines how incoming L2TP packets with a tunnel ID
|
|
field different from
|
|
.Va tunnel_id
|
|
are handled.
|
|
If
|
|
.Va match_id
|
|
is non-zero, they will be dropped; otherwise, they will be dropped
|
|
only if the tunnel ID is non-zero.
|
|
Typically
|
|
.Va tunnel_id
|
|
is set to the local tunnel ID as soon as it is known and
|
|
.Va match_id
|
|
is set to non-zero after receipt of the SCCRP or SCCCN control message.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The peer's tunnel ID should be set in
|
|
.Va peer_id
|
|
as soon as it is learned, typically after receipt of a SCCRQ or SCCRP
|
|
control message.
|
|
This value is copied into the L2TP header for outgoing packets.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Va peer_win
|
|
field should be set from the
|
|
.Dq "Receive Window Size"
|
|
AVP received from the peer.
|
|
The default value for this field is one; zero is an invalid value.
|
|
As long as
|
|
.Va enabled
|
|
is non-zero, this value may not be decreased.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Va rexmit_max
|
|
and
|
|
.Va rexmit_max_to
|
|
fields configure packet retransmission.
|
|
.Va rexmit_max_to
|
|
is the maximum retransmission delay between packets, in seconds.
|
|
The retransmit delay will start at a small value and increase
|
|
exponentially up to this limit.
|
|
The
|
|
.Va rexmit_max
|
|
sets the maximum number of times a packet will be retransmitted
|
|
without being acknowledged before a failure condition is declared.
|
|
Once a failure condition is declared, each additional retransmission
|
|
will cause the
|
|
.Nm l2tp
|
|
node to send a
|
|
.Dv NGM_L2TP_ACK_FAILURE
|
|
control message back to the node that sent the last
|
|
.Dv NGM_L2TP_SET_CONFIG .
|
|
Appropriate action should then be taken to shutdown the control connection.
|
|
.It Dv NGM_L2TP_GET_CONFIG
|
|
Returns the current configuration as a
|
|
.Vt "struct ng_l2tp_config" .
|
|
.It Dv NGM_L2TP_SET_SESS_CONFIG
|
|
This control message configures a single data session.
|
|
The corresponding hook must already be connected before sending this command.
|
|
The argument is a
|
|
.Vt "struct ng_l2tp_sess_config" :
|
|
.Bd -literal
|
|
/* Configuration for a session hook */
|
|
struct ng_l2tp_sess_config {
|
|
uint16_t session_id; /* local session id */
|
|
uint16_t peer_id; /* peer's session id */
|
|
u_char control_dseq; /* we control data sequencing? */
|
|
u_char enable_dseq; /* enable data sequencing? */
|
|
u_char include_length; /* include length field? */
|
|
};
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Va session_id
|
|
and
|
|
.Va peer_id
|
|
fields configure the local and remote session IDs, respectively.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Va control_dseq
|
|
and
|
|
.Va enable_dseq
|
|
fields determine whether sequence numbers are used with L2TP data packets.
|
|
If
|
|
.Va enable_dseq
|
|
is zero, then no sequence numbers are sent and incoming sequence numbers
|
|
are ignored.
|
|
Otherwise, sequence numbers are included on outgoing packets and checked
|
|
on incoming packets.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
If
|
|
.Va control_dseq
|
|
is non-zero, then the setting of
|
|
.Va enable_dseq
|
|
will never change except by another
|
|
.Dv NGM_L2TP_SET_SESS_CONFIG
|
|
control message.
|
|
If
|
|
.Va control_dseq
|
|
is zero, then the peer controls whether sequence numbers are used:
|
|
if an incoming L2TP data packet contains sequence numbers,
|
|
.Va enable_dseq
|
|
is set to one, and conversely if an incoming L2TP data packet does not
|
|
contain sequence numbers,
|
|
.Va enable_dseq
|
|
is set to zero.
|
|
The current value of
|
|
.Va enable_dseq
|
|
is always accessible via the
|
|
.Dv NGM_L2TP_GET_SESS_CONFIG
|
|
control message (see below).
|
|
Typically an LNS would set
|
|
.Va control_dseq
|
|
to one while a LAC would set
|
|
.Va control_dseq
|
|
to zero (if the Sequencing Required AVP were not sent), thus giving
|
|
control of data packet sequencing to the LNS.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Va include_length
|
|
field determines whether the L2TP header length field is included
|
|
in outgoing L2TP data packets.
|
|
For incoming packets, the L2TP length field is always checked when present.
|
|
.It Dv NGM_L2TP_GET_SESS_CONFIG
|
|
This command takes a two byte session ID as an argument and returns
|
|
the current configuration for the corresponding data session as a
|
|
.Vt "struct ng_l2tp_sess_config" .
|
|
The corresponding session hook must be connected.
|
|
.It Dv NGM_L2TP_GET_STATS
|
|
This command returns a
|
|
.Vt "struct ng_l2tp_stats"
|
|
containing statistics of the L2TP tunnel.
|
|
.It Dv NGM_L2TP_CLR_STATS
|
|
This command clears the statistics for the L2TP tunnel.
|
|
.It Dv NGM_L2TP_GETCLR_STATS
|
|
Same as
|
|
.Dv NGM_L2TP_GET_STATS ,
|
|
but also atomically clears the statistics as well.
|
|
.It Dv NGM_L2TP_GET_SESSION_STATS
|
|
This command takes a two byte session ID as an argument and returns a
|
|
.Vt "struct ng_l2tp_session_stats"
|
|
containing statistics for the corresponding data session.
|
|
The corresponding session hook must be connected.
|
|
.It Dv NGM_L2TP_CLR_SESSION_STATS
|
|
This command takes a two byte session ID as an argument and
|
|
clears the statistics for that data session.
|
|
The corresponding session hook must be connected.
|
|
.It Dv NGM_L2TP_GETCLR_SESSION_STATS
|
|
Same as
|
|
.Dv NGM_L2TP_GET_SESSION_STATS ,
|
|
but also atomically clears the statistics as well.
|
|
.It Dv NGM_L2TP_SET_SEQ
|
|
This command sets the sequence numbers of a not yet enabled node.
|
|
It takes a
|
|
.Vt "struct ng_l2tp_seq_config"
|
|
as argument, where
|
|
.Va xack
|
|
and
|
|
.Va nr
|
|
respectively
|
|
.Va ns
|
|
and
|
|
.Va rack
|
|
must be the same.
|
|
This option is particularly useful if one receives and processes
|
|
the first packet entirely in userspace and wants to hand over further
|
|
processing to the node.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Sh SHUTDOWN
|
|
This node shuts down upon receipt of a
|
|
.Dv NGM_SHUTDOWN
|
|
control message, or when all hooks have been disconnected.
