Yes, [1]. For VMAC I'm just finishing iparp - ARP filtering
via rtnetlink. In the next days I'll finish testing and documentation.
Another reason Alexandre to be happy :)
!!!! Excellent ! :)
> understand the concept of the medium_id. But how come you don't know how
The concept is simple:
- define medium_id for each interface
- optionally, enable all/proxy_arp without worrying for
problems (without this knowledge proxy_arp replies for
everything, i.e. by default it is assumed that each device is
attached to different medium)
I already implemented rp_filter extension that is aware
of the medium_id values - useful for environments with rp_filter
protection and multiple subnets on interfaces attached to same
hub/medium (arp_prefsrc was simply a work-around which is not
correct).
Ok, so for VMAC for example you send via netlink an proxy_arp update query
with the VMAC/VIP wanted ?
Then using this medium_id you can replies to ARP request for non local-ARP
addresses ?
Sounds very nice,
Best regs,
Alexandre
