... Hello! An alpha-mature code of the Connexion project is available: http://www.radlinux.org/ http://www.radlinux.org/download/connexion-0.4.4.tar.bz2 [171Kb] docs: * en: http://www.radlinux.org/docs/static/en/ * ru: http://www.radlinux.org/docs/static/ru/ See docs/INSTALL for quick start-up howto (strictly speaking, installation isn't required, it can work out-of-box -- if all dependencies are provided). config samples: * in the tarball, interfaces/console/testing/* * event handling: http://www.radlinux.org/connexion/wiki/Connexion/Samples ... In general, Connexion is a framework that provides an easy way to create and combine system configuration modules. The 0.4.4 is shipped with modules: * ncsh: basic network setup (ethernet, vlan, bridging, pptp, pppoe controls), shaping (tbf,htb) (including class-factory for massive shaping) * events: snmp traps and netlink events handling * base dictionary ... System requirements: GNU/Linux (2.6.13 and above tested; older kernels are not tested but should work, except, maybe, netlink events), glibc (uclibc is not tested, may not work in events handling), python2.4, iproute2, vlan-utils and other ip stuff. Possible problems: netlink module uses ctypes and operates on very low level. It may have arch-related bugs, 'cause it is tested only on PC ia32 and amd x86_64 Additional python modules (may be installed, but are not necessary): * egenix-mx-experimental -- for UID(); if absent, uuidgen will be used * pysnmp 4.x * pyasn1 * pysnmp-mibs -- for SNMP traps * ctypes -- for netlink events So, without event handling, the Connexion project may work with python2.4 only, w/o any additional packages (ip related utils are still needed, but if one works with network setup, he already has these utils) ... I hope that the project will be useful. Any comments are appreciated. If anyone want to help the project with coding/testing/docs -- you are welcome. -- Peter V.
