To test a router, we need an upstream connection. This directory
|
||||
contains a derivation to download, start and configure a RouterOS
|
||||
"Cloud Hosted Router" instance in a Qemu VM. It is currently
|
||||
set up for automated tests only, and may require some manual
|
||||
frobbing to run interactively.

* chr.sh, a script that will start a RouterOS image in qemu.
|

Login when prompted, username is "admin", blank password
|
||||
* routeros.config, a set of commands you can feed into routeros
|
||||
to set up PPPoE

Note that you need to open some multicast ports if you're using the
|
||||
NixOS firewall (or probably, any other firewall). For iptables you can
|
||||
accomplish this by editing your configuration.nix or some module it

You may need to open your firewall a bit to allow multicast packets
|
||||
so that the upstream and the liminix qemu instances may communicate
|
||||
```

||||
networking.firewall.extraCommands = ''
|
||||
ip46tables -A nixos-fw -m pkttype --pkt-type multicast -p udp --dport 1234:1236 -j nixos-fw-accept

||||
'';

## To connect to the routeros serial
|

|

The Qemu instance running RouterOS is headless, but it creates
|
||||
two unix sockets for serial port and monitor.
