The Network section IPv6PrefixDelegation= option takes two new
configuration values, namely "static" and "dhcpv6" in addition
to boolean yes and no values. Static prefixes in IPv6Prefix
sections are used when IPv6PrefixDelegation= option contains
"static", and DHCPv6 is queried for prefixes when the option
contains "dhcpv6". Both DHCPv6 and static prefixes are used when
the option contains a boolean true value. The default value is
false as before, meaning no prefixes are delegated.
This adds a simple condition/assert/match to the service manager, to
udev's .link handling and to networkd, for matching the kernel version
string.
In this version we only do fnmatch() based globbing, but we might want
to extend that to version comparisons later on, if we like, by slightly
extending the syntax with ">=", "<=", ">", "<" and "==" expressions.
RequiredForOnline= denotes a link/network that does/does not require being up
for systemd-networkd-wait-online to consider the system online; this makes it
possible to ignore devices without modifying parameters to wait-online.
Add EmitDNS= and EmitDomains= options to the IPv6PrefixDelegation
network configuration file section so that sending DNS servers
and DNS search domains can be configured independent of each other.
The default values for both are set to true.
When an interface has been enslaved to a VRF the received routes should
be added to the VRFs RT instead of the main table.
This change modifies the default behaviour of routes in the case where a
network belongs to an VRF. When the user does not configure a
`DHCP.RouteTable` in a `systemd.network` file and the interface belongs
to a VRF, the VRFs routing table is used instead of RT_TABLE_MAIN.
When the user has configured a custom routing table for DHCP the VRFs
table is ignored and the users preference takes precedence.
Parse DNS search domains from .network files so that they are included
in Router Advertisement DNSSL options.
DNS search domains are added to the [IPv6PrefixDelegation] section using
the following syntax:
Domains=foo.example.com bar.example.com
If IDNA libraries are enabled in systemd, international domain names
are supported.
Routing Policy rule manipulates rules in the routing policy database control the
route selection algorithm.
This work supports to configure Rule
```
[RoutingPolicyRule]
TypeOfService=0x08
Table=7
From= 192.168.100.18
```
```
ip rule show
0: from all lookup local
0: from 192.168.100.18 tos 0x08 lookup 7
```
V2 changes:
1. Added logic to handle duplicate rules.
2. If rules are changed or deleted and networkd restarted
then those are deleted when networkd restarts next time
V3:
1. Add parse_fwmark_fwmask
Parse DNS IPv6 addresses and DNS server lifetime from .network files
so that they can be included in Router Advertisement RDNSS options.
RDNSS address and lifetime information is added to the
[IPv6PrefixDelegation] section according to the following syntax:
DNS=2001:db8:🅰️b 2001:db8::c:d
DNSLifetimeSec=1042
Add variables for enabling Router Advertisements, router lifetime as
well as managed and other information flags indicating use of DHCPv6.
Add configuration of default router preferences as defined in RFC 4191.
IPv6PrefixDelegation in the [Network] section has to be set in order
to enable prefix delegation. The rest of the prefix delegation values
are stored in the [IPv6PrefixDelegation] section. The host will act as
a default router if it is given a non-zero lifetime with
RouterLifetimeSec. Managed and OtherInformation booleans set the level
of DHCPv6 support, and the RouterPreference configures the router's
preference between low, medium and high. Words 'normal' and 'default'
are added as synonyms for 'medium' just to make configuration simpler.
This adds a section like the following to .network configuration files:
[Network]
IPv6PrefixDelegation=true
[IPv6PrefixDelegation]
RouterLifetimeSec=2000
Managed=false
OtherInformation=true
RouterPreference=medium
Support zero or more [IPv6Prefix] sections in the network configuration
files. Each section can have one Prefix=<subnet>[/<prefixlength>]
option, with the preferred and valid lifetimes specified by
ValidLifetimeSec and PreferredLifetimeSec measured in seconds, and
with onlink and address autoconfiguration booleans specified by
OnLink and AddressAutoconfiguration variables.
This adds a section like the following to .network configuration files:
[IPv6Prefix]
Prefix=2001:db8:dead:beef::/64
OnLink=true
AddressAutoconfiguration=true
ValidLifetimeSec=1500
PreferredLifetimeSec=1000
This work based on Tom's original patch
teg@1312172
By setting GatewayOnlink=yes, the kernel will assume that the gateway is onlink
even if there is no route to it.
Resolves issue #1283.
Allow setting bridge port priority in the Bridge section of the network file,
similar to e.g. port path cost setting.
Set the default to an invalid value of 128, and only set the port priority when
it's not 128. Unlike e.g. path cost, zero is a valid priority value.
Add a networkd-test.py to check that bridge port priority is correctly set.
Incidently, fix bridge port cost type and document valid ranges.
IPv6 Neighbor discovery proxy is the IPv6 equivalent to proxy ARP for IPv4.
It is required when ISPs do not unconditional route IPv6 subnets
to their designated target, but expect neighbor solicitation messages
for every address on a link.
A variable IPv6ProxyNDPAddress= is introduced to the [Network] section,
each representing a IPv6 neighbour proxy entry in the neighbour table.
In eb64b435eb ActiveSlave/PrimarySlave were inserted in between
IPv6AcceptRA and IPv6AcceptRouterAdvertisements and the comment then didn't
make sense. It turns out that gperf does not understand C-style comments, and
that there's no comment syntax in the keywords section. The following was
generated:
{"/* legacy alias for the above */"},
{"Network.IPv6AcceptRA", config_parse_tristate, 0, offsetof(Network, ipv6_accept_ra)},
In practice this wouldn't lead to problems because this fake pattern would be
hard to match, but it seems better to remove the comments altogether.
Readers of the .gperf file will have to look for the repeated output field to
notice legacy options. To make this easier, let's always keep the legacy option
second.
active_slave:
Specifies the new active slave for modes that support it
(active-backup, balance-alb and balance-tlb).
primary slave:
systemd-networks currently lacks the capability to set the primary slave
in an
active-backup bonding. This is necessary if you prefer one interface
over the
other. A common example is a eth0-wlan0 bonding on a laptop where you'd
want to
switch to the wired connection whenever it's available.
Fixes: #2837
The long name is just too hard to type. We generally should avoid using
acronyms too liberally, if they aren't established enough, but it appears that
"RA" is known well enough. Internally we call the option "ipv6_accept_ra"
anyway, and the kernel also exposes it under this name. Hence, let's rename the
IPv6AcceptRouterAdvertisements= setting and the
[IPv6AcceptRouterAdvertisements] section to IPv6AcceptRA= and [IPv6AcceptRA].
The old setting IPv6AcceptRouterAdvertisements= is kept for compatibility with
older configuration. (However the section [IPv6AcceptRouterAdvertisements] is
not, as it was never available in a published version of systemd.
This reworks sd-ndisc and networkd substantially to support IPv6 RA much more
comprehensively. Since the API is extended quite a bit networkd has been ported
over too, and the patch is not as straight-forward as one could wish. The
rework includes:
- Support for DNSSL, RDNSS and RA routing options in sd-ndisc and networkd. Two
new configuration options have been added to networkd to make this
configurable.
- sd-ndisc now exposes an sd_ndisc_router object that encapsulates a full RA
message, and has direct, friendly acessor functions for the singleton RA
properties, as well as an iterative interface to iterate through known and
unsupported options. The router object may either be retrieved from the wire,
or generated from raw data. In many ways the sd-ndisc API now matches the
sd-lldp API, except that no implicit database of seen data is kept. (Note
that sd-ndisc actually had a half-written, but unused implementaiton of such
a store, which is removed now.)
- sd-ndisc will now collect the reception timestamps of RA, which is useful to
make sd_ndisc_router fully descriptive of what it covers.
Fixes: #1079
Add an option to disable appending DHCP option 3 (Router) to the DHCP
OFFER and ACK packets.
This commit adds the boolean option EmitRouter= for the [DHCPServer]
section in .network files.
Rationale: On embedded devices, it is very useful to have a DHCP server
running on an USB OTG ethernet gadget interface to avoid manual setup on
the client PCs, but it should only serve IP addresses, no route(r)s.
Otherwise, Windows clients experience network connectivity issues, due
to them using the address set in DHCP option 3 as default gateway.
