Source IP address field in RREP on DSR routing
Hello
I have a question about routing in MANET using
Dynamic Source Routing protocol.
IN RFC4728 (DSR) in section "IP fields" of RREP (
Route Reply) packet we have this:
Quote:
Source Address
Set to the address of the node sending the Route Reply. In the
case of a node sending a reply from its Route Cache (Section
3.3.2) or sending a gratuitous Route Reply (Section 3.4.3),
this address can differ from the address that was the target of
the Route Discovery.
ok.
I read in several books and also in rfc4728 that: when a source node (node that initiate route discovery process) receive a RREP it are not able to understad which node sent that RREP!!
But why?
rfc say that the value of source IP address field of RREP packet is IP address of node that send RREP. and this packet forwarded toward Source node.
My question is why??! why source node can not always understand that which node is sender of RREP?
Please guide me
tnx

Hi, does anybody know how to set the IP source address of an IP packet to be zero? The problem is that when you create a raw socket and set the IP_HDRINCL socket option, if you put the ip_src address to zero (INADDR_ANY) the kernel will automatically set the source address to the primary IP address...

tc-route
Route classifier in tc(8) Linux Route classifier in tc(8)
NAME
route - route traffic control filter
SYNOPSIS
tc filter ... route [ from REALM | fromif TAG ] [ to REALM ] [ classid CLASSID ] [ action ACTION_SPEC ]
DESCRIPTION
Match packets based on routing table entries. This filter centers around the possibility to assign a realm to routing table entries. For
any packet to be classified by this filter, a routing table lookup is performed and the returned realm is used to decide on whether the
packet is a match or not.
OPTIONS
action ACTION_SPEC
Apply an action from the generic actions framework on matching packets.
classid CLASSID
Push matching packets into the class identified by CLASSID.
from REALM
fromif TAG
Perform source route lookups. TAG is the name of an interface which must be present on the system at the time of tc invocation.
to REALM
Match if normal (i.e., destination) routing returns the given REALM.
EXAMPLES
Consider the subnet 192.168.2.0/24 being attached to eth0:
ip route add 192.168.2.0/24 dev eth0 realm 2
The following route filter will then match packets from that subnet:
tc filter add ... route from 2 classid 1:2
and pass packets on to class 1:2.
NOTES
Due to implementation details, realm values must be in a range from 0 to 255, inclusive. Alternatively, a verbose name defined in
/etc/iproute2/rt_realms may be given instead.
