Things to do on the MetaNet

Sort out OSPF

We have people leaking routes onto the network that aren't supposed to be there, we have people who don't get routes to/from the network, and occasionally get partitioning. Someone writing a OSPF HOWTO would be great.

  • Investigate why ospf (not zebra) sometimes dies, maybe if Etud is killed ospfd will die ?

Implement DNSSEC

We need this for secure DNS resolution and key distribution

Implement IPSec

To provide authentication and security over the MetaNet, particularly oppertunistic IPSec requires DNSSEC

IPv6 Support

Configure IPv6 to run over the MetaNet and perhaps investigate obtaining some (real!) IPv6 addresses from somewhere

Things to do with the MetaNet code

  • Release REL2
  • Configure/build
  • BSD port
  • Tidy ups:

    • Licensing/CVS tags in all the files
  • Initscripts

    • Init scripts are "complete" for debian. Need some Redhat style ones.

Ethernet-Over-UDP

  • Renaming the interface and the program

    • Save the interface name, and restore it on ifdown (ethertap only)
  • IPv6?
  • Default log level option in config / command line. Should be applied to all modules unless overridden by a specific level for that module

WANd

  • Signed updates
  • Use logging stuff
