The name with plural made more sense where multiple options could be specified
in one line. After changes in the pull request, this option only accepts one
value, so from users' POV it should be singular.
(The field in the data structure remains plural, because it actually stores
multiple values.)
IPServiceType set to CS6 (network control) causes problems on some old
network setups that continue to interpret the field as IP TOS.
Make DHCP work on such networks by allowing this field to be set to
CS4 (Realtime) instead, as this maps to IPTOS_LOWDELAY.

This patch adds netdev ipvtap that is based on the
IP-VLAN network interface, called ipvtap. An ipvtap device can be created
in the same way as an ipvlan device, using 'kind ipvtap', and then accessed
using the tap user space interface.
Media Access Control Security (MACsec) is an 802.1AE IEEE
industry-standard security technology that provides secure
communication for all traffic on Ethernet links.
MACsec provides point-to-point security on Ethernet links between
directly connected nodes and is capable of identifying and preventing
most security threats, including denial of service, intrusion,
man-in-the-middle, masquerading, passive wiretapping, and playback attacks.
Closes#5754
When enabled, three samples are used to determine the value of a
received bit by majority rule.
This patch adds support for the TripleSampling= option in the [CAN]
section of .network files.
And before resolving NetDev names, check conditions in .network,
and if they do not match the system environment, drop the network
unit earlier.
Fixes#4211.
When there is bad link in the network the carrier goes up/down.
This makes networkd stops all the clients and drop config.
But if the remote router/dhcpserver running a prevention
of DHCP Starvation attack or DHCP Flood attack it does not allow
networkd to take a DHCP lease resulting failure in configuration.
This patch allows to keep the client running and keep the conf
also for this scenario.
Closes#9111
An earlier commit 0e408b82b (dhcp6-client: handle IAID with value zero)
introduced a flag to sd_dhcp6_client to distinguish between an unset
IAID and a value set to zero.
However, that was not sufficient and broke leaving the setting
uninitialized in networkd configuration. The configuration parsing
also must distinguish between the default, unset value and an
explict zero configuration.
Fixes: 0e408b82b8
When using networkd we currently have no way of ensuring that static
neighbor entries are set when our link comes up. This change adds a new
section to the network definition that allows multiple static neighbors
to be set on a link.
RFC 7084, WPD-4, requires Customer Edge end routers to behave
according to the following:
"WPD-4: By default, the IPv6 CE router MUST initiate DHCPv6 prefix
delegation when either the M or O flags are set to 1 in a
received Router Advertisement (RA) message. Behavior of the
CE router to use DHCPv6 prefix delegation when the CE router
has not received any RA or received an RA with the M and the
O bits set to zero is out of scope for this document."
Since it cannot be automatically detected whether DHCPv6 is to be
operated as an CE end router or whether to initiate an Informational
exchange to obtain other useful network information via DHCPv6 when the
Router Advertisement 'O' bit is set, a 'ForceDHCPv6PDOtherInformation'
boolean network configuration option in the '[DHCP]' section of a is
introduced. Setting this option causes DHCPv6 to be started in stateful
mode, although only the 'O' bit is seen in the Router Advertisement.
When 'ForceDHCPv6PDOtherInformation' is set and the Router Advertisement
has only the Other information 'O' bit set, disable requests for IA_NA
addresses.
Fixes#9745.
This patch add support to enables to send User Class option code 77
RFC 3004.
This option MAY carry multiple User Classes.
The format of this option is as follows:
Code Len Value
+-----+-----+--------------------- . . . --+
| 77 | N | User Class Data ('Len' octets) |
+-----+-----+--------------------- . . . --+
where Value consists of one or more instances of User Class Data.
Each instance of User Class Data is formatted as follows:
UC_Len_i User_Class_Data_i
+--------+------------------------ . . . --+
| L_i | Opaque-Data ('UC_Len_i' octets) |
+--------+------------------------ . . . --+
UserClass=
A DHCPv4 client can use UserClass option to identify the type or category of user or applications
it represents. The information contained in this option is an string that represents the user class
of which the client is a member. Each class sets an identifying string of information to be used by the DHCP service to classify clients. Takes a whitespace-separated list.
UserClass= hello world how are you
Closes: RFC: #5134
Rather than choosing to set or unset any of these flag
use kernel defaults. This patch makes following properties to unset.
UseBPDU = unset
HairPin = unset
FastLeave = unset
AllowPortToBeRoot = unset
UnicastFlood = unset
This cleans up handling of MTU values across the codebase. Previously
MTU values where stored sometimes in uint32_t, sometimes in uint16_t,
sometimes unsigned and sometimes in size_t. This now unifies this to
uint32_t across the codebase, as that's what netlink spits out, and what
the majority was already using.
Also, all MTU parameters are now parsed with config_parse_mtu() and
config_parse_ipv6_mtu() is dropped as it is now unneeded.
(Note there is one exception for the MTU typing: in the DCHPv4 code we
continue to process the MTU as uint16_t value, as it is encoded like
that in the protocol, and it's probably better stay close to the
protocol there.)
The DHCPv6 client can obtain configuration parameters from a
DHCPv6 server through a rapid two-message exchange solicit and reply).
When the rapid commit option is enabled by both the DHCPv6 client and
the DHCPv6 server, the two-message exchange is used, rather than the default
four-method exchange (solicit, advertise, request, and reply). The two-message
exchange provides faster client configuration and is beneficial in environments
in which networks are under a heavy load.
Closes#5845
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.

This allows selecting the propagation level of emitted LLDP packets
(specifically: the destination MAC address of the packets). This is useful
because it allows generating LLDP packets that optionally cross certain types
of bridges.
See 802.11ab-2009, Table 7-1 for details.
networkd: add support to set route table
1. add support to configure the table id.
if id is less than 256 we can fit this in the header of route as
netlink property is a char. But in kernel this proepty is a
unsigned 32. Hence if greater that 256 add this as RTA_TABLE
attribute.
2. we are not setting the address family now. Now set this property.
Separate fields are replaced with a struct.
Second second duid type field is removed. The first field was used to carry
the result of DUIDType= configuration, and the second was either a copy of
this, or contained the type extracted from DuidRawData. The semantics are changed
so that the type specified in DUIDType is always used. DUIDRawData= no longer
overrides the type setting.
The networkd code is now more constrained than the sd-dhcp code:
DUIDRawData cannot have 0 length, length 0 is treated the same as unsetting.
Likewise, it is not possible to set a DUIDType=0. If it ever becomes necessary
to set type=0 or a zero-length duid, the code can be changed to support that.
Nevertheless, I think that's unlikely.
This addresses #3127 § 1 and 3.
v2:
- rename DUID.duid, DUID.duid_len to DUID.raw_data, DUID.raw_data_len
Let's move DUID configuration into the [DHCP] section, since it only makes
sense in a DHCP context, and should be close to the configuration of
ClientIdentifier= and suchlike.
This really shouldn't be a section of its own, we don't have any for any of our
other per-protocol specific identifiers...
