[PATCH conntrack-tools] conntrackd: cthelper: Add new SLP helper

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Service Location Protocol (SLP) uses multicast requests for DA (Directory
agent) and SA (Service agent) discovery. Replies to these requests are
unicast and their source address does not match destination address of the
request so that we need a conntrack helper. A kernel helper was submitted
back in 2013 but was rejected as userspace helper infrastructure is
preferred. This adds an SLP helper to conntrackd.

As the function of SLP helper is the same as what existing mDNS helper
does, src/helpers/slp.c is essentially just a copy of src/helpers/mdns.c,
except for the default timeout and example usage. As with mDNS helper,
there is no NAT support for the time being as that would probably require
kernel side changes and certainly further study (and could possibly work
only for source NAT).

+ * timeout is set one second longer than default CONFIG_MC_MAX from RFC2608
+ * section 13.
+ *
+ * Example usage:

+ *     nfct add helper slp inet udp
+ *     iptables -t raw -A OUTPUT -m addrtype --dst-type MULTICAST \
+ *         -p udp --dport 427 -j CT --helper slp

+ *         -p udp --dport 427 -j CT --helper slp
+ *     iptables -t filter -A INPUT -m conntrack --ctstate ESTABLISHED,RELATED \
