Cisco DMVPN Configuration Question
by Ray Soucy 16 Aug '13

16 Aug '13

Don't usually poke NANOG for a second pair of eyes, but got hit with an urgent need to get connectivity up on a small budget. I've run into a situation where I require multiple DMVPN spokes to be behind a single NAT IP (picture of things to come with CGN?) The DMVPN endpoint works fine behind NAT until a 2nd is added behind the same IP address. At that point the hub gets confused and I start seeing packet loss to the endpoints in a round-robin fashion. As far as I can see Cisco documentation says pretty clearly that each DMVPN spoke requires a unique IP address. Is there any way around this, or do I need to be looking at an alternative VPN solution? Hub config: ----8<---- description DMVPN bandwidth 100000 ip address 10.231.254.1 255.255.255.0 no ip redirects ip mtu 1400 ip nhrp authentication ! removed ip nhrp map multicast dynamic ip nhrp network-id 1 ip nhrp redirect ip tcp adjust-mss 1360 tunnel source ! removed tunnel mode gre multipoint tunnel key 0 tunnel protection ipsec profile DMVPN ----8<---- Spoke: ----8<---- interface Tunnel2 description DMVPN bandwidth 100000 ip vrf forwarding DMVPN ip address 10.231.254.10 255.255.255.0 no ip redirects ip mtu 1400 ip nhrp authentication ! removed ip nhrp map multicast ! removed ip nhrp map 10.231.254.1 ! removed ip nhrp network-id 1 ip nhrp nhs 10.231.254.1 ip nhrp shortcut ip tcp adjust-mss 1360 tunnel source FastEthernet0/0 tunnel mode gre multipoint tunnel key 0 tunnel protection ipsec profile DMVPN end ----8<---- -- Ray Patrick Soucy Network Engineer University of Maine System T: 207-561-3526 F: 207-561-3531 MaineREN, Maine's Research and Education Network www.maineren.net

Recommendations for dynamic imix traffic generators
by Jason Lixfeld 15 Aug '13

15 Aug '13

Hi folks, I'm trying to put together a test bench to soak some CPE equipment with an imix of eyeball traffic. I'm wondering if anyone has any recommendations on open-source platforms that might be able to accomplish this. I'd like to simulate traffic conditions that various tiers of Internet users might create from behind these CPEs - Casual user, business user, gamer, heavy users, netflix client, Apple TV client, a combination of any of the aforementioned, etc. In a perfect world, I'd love for these traffic patterns to be dynamic; various pps/bps/fps/nat cps rates, various intervals of each and durations of each instead of just continually puking out the same set of packets in an endless loop. I think it would be important for this traffic generator to be intelligent enough to determine whether or not the tests it's performing are successful or not; that is, be cognizant of errors in the tests that would translate into what a user would perceive to be a broken web page or a slow loading web page or a video freezing or a game to lock up, all of which might be attributed to a timeout on a DNS lookup or packet-loss or a bad NAT stack, etc. If anyone has any ideas or experiences they can share on this type of setup, I'd love some feedback or advice. icir.org has a list of tools which I'm making my way through as well. Not sure what is useful for what it I'm trying to do, but I digress. Thanks in advance.

SMTP Authentication for Local Domain in Postfix
by Shahab Vahabzadeh 15 Aug '13

15 Aug '13

Dear friends, I have problem with my postfix configuration, I have enable SASL for postfix and now authentication works well for my clients but right now anyboy can send email from my local domain to local domain without authentication and cause of that I have lots of attacks. How can I force that if sender is my localdomain it must authenticate?! Here is my postfix configuration: main.cf: smtpd_sasl_auth_enable = yes > smtpd_sasl_local_domain = $myhostname > smtpd_sasl_security_options = noanonymous > broken_sasl_auth_clients = yes > smtpd_sasl_authenticated_header = yes > smtpd_client_restrictions = > permit_mynetworks, > permit_sasl_authenticated, > reject_unauth_pipelining, > reject_rbl_client zen.spamhaus.org, > smtpd_helo_restrictions = > permit_mynetworks, > #reject_non_fqdn_hostname, > reject_invalid_hostname > smtpd_sender_restriction = > permit_mynetworks, > permit_sasl_authenticated, > check_sender_access hash:/etc/postfix/access_table > reject_unknown_sender_domain, > reject_non_fqdn_sender > smtpd_recipient_restrictions = > permit_mynetworks, > permit_sasl_authenticated, > reject_invalid_hostname, > reject_unauth_pipelining, > reject_non_fqdn_sender, > reject_unknown_sender_domain, > reject_non_fqdn_recipient, > reject_unknown_recipient_domain, > reject_unverified_recipient, > reject_unauth_destination, > check_policy_service unix:private/policy-spf, > permit master.cf: smtp inet n - - - - smtpd > -o content_filter=spamassassin > submission inet n - - - - smtpd > -o smtpd_tls_security_level=may > -o smtpd_sasl_auth_enable=yes > -o smtpd_client_restrictions=permit_sasl_authenticated,reject > -o milter_macro_daemon_name=ORIGINATING > -o content_filter=spamassassin > smtps inet n - - - - smtpd > -o smtpd_tls_wrappermode=yes > -o smtpd_sasl_auth_enable=yes > -o smtpd_client_restrictions=permit_sasl_authenticated,reject > -o milter_macro_daemon_name=ORIGINATING > spamassassin > unix - n n - - pipe > user=nobody argv=/usr/bin/spamc -e /usr/sbin/sendmail -oi -f ${sender} > ${recipient} > policy-spf unix - n n - - spawn > user=nobody argv=/usr/bin/perl /usr/sbin/postfix-policyd-spf-perl access_table: mydomain.com REJECT You're not me!
