Hey Guys & Gals,
I have am trying to set up a simple testbed with three computers. I am
using the standard 192.168 address for a private network. For my experiment
I need two networks which in my case is 192.168.1 and 192.158.5.
The other two machines are the single machines on the respective networks.
This may sound strange but it has to be that way for my test.
One machine acts as a router between the two networks. I have two nic
cards in the router and just string normal 10base T cable between it
and the clients (i couldn't see the need for something more complicated
but please feel free to correct me).
On the router I run routed. The two interfaces ep0 and ep1 seem to be
configured OK when I run ifconfig -a I get
flags - 8a43 <UP,Broadcast,Running, AllMulti,Simplix, Multicast, mtu 1500
inet 192.168.1.5 netmask ...... broadcast 192.168.1.255 .....
similarly for the other one,
When I first sit things up and tried to ping a client from the router I
got Host is Down. So I added the route in the routing table since I
figured that it didn't know what interface to go out on. (Though the non
router boxes have the same error.) After adding the route the error message
was:
Time to Live exceeded.
Also routed is periodically giving me:
routed[142]: send to(ep0,244.0.0.1) No Route to Host
routed[142]: send to(ep1,244.0.0.1) No Route to Host
Obviously I've screwed something up here if I can't even get the link level
working.
Any help would be greately appreciated.
