For change log information refer to linux/current_wanpipe/README
|
|
|
|
IMPORTANT:
|
|
----------
|
|
|
|
o Wanpipe RPMs contain wanpipe kernel modules.
|
|
This makes the RPMs kernel sensitive.
|
|
|
|
o RPM Packages are build for stock distribution
|
|
kernels only!! If you have a custom built kernel
|
|
use the latest wanpipe source package from
|
|
current_wanpipe/ directory.
|
|
|
|
One can build custom RPMS using the ./Setup buildrpm
|
|
option, during source install.
|
|
|
|
Refer the current_wanpipe/doc/README.rpmbuild
|
|
for more info.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Choosing an RPM:
|
|
--------------
|
|
|
|
o Determine the Linux Distribution:
|
|
cat /etc/issue
|
|
(eg: RedHat 7.1)
|
|
|
|
o Determine the Kernel image you are running:
|
|
uname -r
|
|
(eg: 2.4.2-2 : it is not an smp kernel)
|
|
(eg: 2.4.2-2smp : smp kernel)
|
|
|
|
o Determine the processor type
|
|
uname -m
|
|
(eg: i686)
|
|
|
|
o Based on the above information choose an RPM package.
|
|
|
|
wanpipe-<version>.<linux distrib>.<kernel ver>.<processor>.rpm
|
|
|
|
eg: ftp.sangoma.com/linux/RPM/redhat/7.1/i686/
|
|
wanpipe-2.2.4-3.rh71up.k242-2.i686.rpm
|
|
|
|
|
|
Installing RPM
|
|
----------
|
|
|
|
o List the contents of the rpm
|
|
|
|
rpm -qipl <wanpipe rpm name>
|
|
|
|
Make sure that the /lib/modules/<kernel name> directory
|
|
matches your current kernel modules directory.
|
|
|
|
i.e. the output of command 'uname -r' must match the above
|
|
<kernel name> directory.
|
|
|
|
|
|
o The rpm must be installed using the --force option, to
|
|
override the old modules.
|
|
|
|
rpm -i --force <wanpipe rpm name>
|
|
|
|
|
|
Checking Kernel Modules
|
|
------------------
|
|
|
|
o Run 'depmod -a' command
|
|
This command will calculate module dependencies.
|
|
Look for error messages.
|
|
|
|
o Run 'modprobe wanpipe' command
|
|
Look for error messages.
|
|
|
|
o Check hardware probe information
|
|
|
|
wanrouter hwprobe
|
|
or
|
|
modprobe wanpipe
|
|
cat /proc/net/wanrouter/hwprobe
|
|
|
|
|
|
Configuring Wanpipe
|
|
---------------
|
|
|
|
o Run '/usr/sbin/wancfg' to create the configuration file.
|
|
|
|
Each 'wancfg' GUI option contains HELP
|
|
associated with it.
|
|
|
|
o Refer to /usr/share/doc/wanpipe/README-2.config
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Wanpipe Operation
|
|
--------------
|
|
|
|
o Start wanpipe 'wanrouter start' or
|
|
'wanrouter start wanpipe1'
|
|
|
|
o Refer to /usr/share/doc/wanpipe/README-3.operation
|
