DIFFSERV OVER MPLS CONFIGURATION
ON RED HAT LINUX
(For HTB support for linux kernels 2.4.19 and lesser)
1)
Preparation
1.1) Installation of the Linux kernel
The default Linux kernel location is folder /usr/src/linux-2.4.18
(Specifically use kernel 2.4.18. Kernels 2.4.19, 2.4.20, 2.4.21 were tried and were
found to give “kernel panic” on boot.)
- A copy of compressed kernel (linux-2.4.18.tar.bz2) has to be copied
to folder /usr/src/. This is the default kernel location, and the
intended start point for all further operations.
- This directory may contain a symbolic link linux to the old kernel
folder. If so this has to be removed.
- Decompress the kernel by:
~ /usr/src> tar -xvjf linux-2.4.19.tar.bz2
Now create the architecture dependant links:
~ make xconfig (or make menuconfig or make oldconfig)
and exit immediately
1.2) Software List
- Components of the RSVP-TE software can be downloaded separately from
site http://ds_mpls.atlantis.rug.ac.be. These comprise:
KERNEL_2.4.19_MPLS172.patch,iptables-1.2.4-0.2-dscp.tgz,
DSMPLS+IP.patch, iproute2-current.tar.gz and rsvpd.0.70-rc2.tgz.
2)
Uncompress iproute2 package into ~rsvp/
3)
HTB patch
Uncompress htb patch (from http://luxik.cdi.cz/~devik/qos/htb/) into /usr/src and
then:
