Supratim Sanyal's Blog: DECnet GRE Tunneling Cisco Router

The wonderful dynamips emulator along with it's front-end dynagen allows us to relive the excitement of connecting remote machines speaking Digital Equipment Corporation's DECnet networking protocol over the internet using Generic Routing Encapsulation (GRE) and Multipoint Generic Routing Encapsulation (mGRE) tunnels.

I recently deployed a few dynamips-emulated instances of Cisco's venerable 7204VXR router and set up GRE and mGRE tunnels between them to route DECnet and AppleTalk as their passengers. This is a description of how I went about setting up one of those Cisco 7204VXR routers, and configured it as a GRE tunnel end-point. These routers implement the IP (internet protocol), DECnet and classic AppleTalk (Phase-1 and Phase-2) natively, and are a logical extension of my experiments with various classic computers and networking protocols collectively referred to as SANYALnet Labs.

At the time of writing, I have a GRE tunnel from my home to a VPS in Canada, and a second GRE tunnel from my home to a HECnet area router in Perth, Australia. The setup described in this post was performed on the VPS in Canada, running Ubuntu 14.04 LTS.

Not being a great GUI fan, I prefer the Cisco IOS (Internetwork Operating System) command line over graphical tools like GNS3.

Preparing Ubuntu Linux & UFW Firewall for GRE Protocol Support

Ubuntu Packages

Some of the packages I remember installing are dynamips, dynagen, bridge-utils, uml-utilities, ipcalc, vde2, wireshark, tshark.

Enable kernel support for GRE

Generic Routing Encapsulation (GRE) uses IANA-registered IP Protocol 47. (A surprisingly large number of people confuse GRE/IP Protocol 47 withTCP/IP or UDP/IP Port 47.)

Since Microsoft's "PPTP" VPN implementation also uses GRE and is infamously insecure (no fault of GRE!), Ubuntu does not ship with support for GRE enabled. However, at least on Ubuntu 14.04, enabling GRE support is trivial. To load in GRE protocol support into the kernel, activate the nf_conntrack_pptp module using

# modprobe nf_conntrack_pptp

To load the module automatically at boot time, edit /etc/modules and add the line

nf_conntrack_pptp

To check the module is active:

$ lsmod | egrep "pptp|gre"

which should produce something like:

nf_conntrack_pptp 20480 0
nf_conntrack_proto_gre 16384 1 nf_conntrack_pptp
nf_conntrack 102400 6 nf_conntrack_proto_gre,nf_nat,nf_nat_ipv4,nf_nat_masquerade_ipv4,nf_conntrack_ipv4,nf_conntrack_pptp

Prep UFW Firewall for GRE

First follow these instructions to enable IP forwarding and ACCEPT rules in UFW. In effect, this boils down to:

1) Edit /etc/default/ufw and change the parameter:
DEFAULT_FORWARD_POLICY="ACCEPT"

2) Edit /etc/ufw/sysctl.conf and enable by uncommenting:
net.ipv4.ip_forward=1

Now we can add NAT rules for GRE tunnel and IP address forwarding to UFW firewall. Edit the file /etc/ufw/before.rules and add this at the very top:

*nat
:PREROUTING ACCEPT [0:0]
:POSTROUTING ACCEPT [0:0]

# GRE Tunnel protocol to CISCO Router
-A PREROUTING -i br-ip -p gre -j DNAT --to-destination 10.42.2.204
-A POSTROUTING -s 10.42.2.0/24 -o br-ip -j MASQUERADE

COMMIT

Reload UFW, or preferably, reboot.

Bridge, Tap and VDE setup

All of my Linux virtualization hosts are configured with the primary network adapter bridged to a local bridge into which I bridge in tap adapters and VDE switch plugs to support multiple virtual guests. This is important here because when we set up the NAT rules next, we will be using the bridge interface to NAT the dynamips Cisco router on the Linux host. Here is the script that sets up the bridge, tap and VDE:

#!/bin/bash
#

# bridge-tap-vde-setup.sh

Setting up the Local TAP Adapters

In addition, I created two local tap adapters for the Cisco router's NAT'd IP and standalone DECnet interfaces. The DECnet tap does not need to be connected to anything other than the Cisco router since DECnet will be tunneled over GRE using the NAT'd IP tap. Here is the script that sets up the local tap adapters and enables kernel IP forwarding. This is executed from /etc/rc.local right after the bridge/tap/VDE script above.

#!/bin/bash

# Sets up local taps

echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward

ip tuntap add ciscotap0 mode tap user localuser # DECnet -> CISCO f0/0

ip tuntap add ciscotap1 mode tap user localuser # IP -> CISCO f0/1

ifconfig ciscotap0 up

ifconfig ciscotap1 10.42.2.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 up

ufw reload

With the network configuration in place, we can assign a local IP 10.42.2.204 to our dynamips Cisco router and have the NAT iptables rules in UFW "before" configuration forward GRE packets to the Cisco router. Here is a summary of the network setup after a fresh reboot.

Setting up dynamips Cisco 7206VXR Routers for DECnet over GRE Tunnel

Router at Tunnel Endpoint

This is a description of one of the GRE tunnel end-points. The other GRE tunnel end-points are configured similarly, with obvious differences in destination IP addresses and their own DECnet and IP addresses etc.

Startup Scripts

Both dynamips and dynagen run in virtual screen sessions using the "screen" ultility. Here are the two startup scripts.

# ----------run-dynamips-in-screen.sh
#!/bin/bash

if /bin/pidof -x "dynamips" >/dev/null; then
logger "$0: dynamips already running, check screen -r cisco-router"
echo "$0: dynamips already running, check screen -r cisco-router"
echo "screens:"
/usr/bin/screen -ls
exit 0
fi

cd ~/cisco-router/dynamips_data
#ifconfig vde-dnet-tap0 up
screen -S cisco-router -m -d nice -n 6 ionice -c2 dynamips -H 7200

sleep 2
screen -ls

# ---------- run-dynagen-in-screen.sh

#!/bin/bash

if /bin/pidof -x "dynagen" >/dev/null; then

logger "$0: dynagen already running, check screen -r cisco-console"

echo "$0: dynagen already running, check screen -r cisco-console"

echo "screens:"

/usr/bin/screen -ls

exit 0

cd ~/cisco-router/

echo \"list\" to see list of routers

echo \"console R1\" to start xterm console to R1 router

echo OR telnet 10.42.2.204 OR telnet localhost 2000

echo \"start/all\" and \"stop/all\" to start and stop routers

echo \"exit\" also shuts down the routers but does not kill the emulator

echo \"screen -r cisco-router\" and ^C kills the dynamips emulator

screen -S cisco-console -m -d nice -n 6 ionice -c2 dynagen vps4-cisco-7200.ini

CISCO GRE DECNet TUNNEL: A COMPLETE EXAMPLE

Here is another complete example of setting up a DECnet GRE tunnel between two Cisco routers. In this example, the local router at which we are executing the following commands has a NAT IP address of 10.42.2.204, and is NAT'd behind a Internet-facing gateway. The local DECnet address is 1.910, and the remote DECnet address is 1.919. We setup "tunnel0" to the remote router visible over the internet at 45.62.248.66. We can then successfully communicate with 1.919 over DECnet tunneled over GRE.

FastEthernet0/0 is connected to the DECnet-only network. FastEthernet0/1 is connected to the internet via the NAT host. DECnet and internet access are already verified to be working before configuring this tunnel.

Both are dynamips-emulated routers residing inside Ubuntu linux servers which have been configured to support GRE and NAT forwarding as described above.

In addition, we configure the NTP server on this router to keep and serve accurate time before exiting.

$ telnet 10.42.2.204
Trying 10.42.2.204...
Connected to 10.42.2.204.
