Kernel panic

Anonymous — Wed, 30 May 2012 23:00:32 -0000

I seem to keep getting the kernel panic shown in the attached screenshot. I have WANem set up between two servers. On the WANem system, I created a bridge between eth2 and eth3, which are the interfaces connected to my two servers, as described in this link:

http://reloadin10.com/2008/08/22/wanem-bridging-interfaces/

This seems to work in terms of being able to ping one server from the other. But, with any significant amount of traffic, I see this kernel panic on the WANem system.

This is with WANem 2.3

No Multicast Support in Kernel

King of the ring — Tue, 19 Jan 2010 10:24:56 -0000

Hi Nambiar,
I tried to set up multicast routing on wanem! Most kernel settings seem to be available! Unfortunately the setting

"# CONFIG_IP_MROUTE is not set" in the kernel config (/boot/config-2.6.24.4)

which is required to run a multicast router like pimd:

Get:1 http://ftp.jp.debian.org testing/main pimd 2.1.0-alpha29.17-9 [80.6kB]
Fetched 80.6kB in 4s (19.7kB/s)
Selecting previously deselected package pimd.
(Reading database ... 53014 files and directories currently installed.)
Unpacking pimd (from .../pimd_2.1.0-alpha29.17-9_i386.deb) ...
Setting up pimd (2.1.0-alpha29.17-9) ...
Starting pimd: pimd: 14:59:33.589 cannot enable multicast routing in kernel: Protocol not available
invoke-rc.d: initscript pimd, action "start" failed.
dpkg: error processing pimd (--configure):
subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 255
Errors were encountered while processing:
pimd

Are there any special things to mention when rebuilding the kernel?

Thx,
Axel

Number of NICs

When using more 5 NICs, the interface for configuring the IP addresses errors with segmentation fault.

network configuration disappear

Sometimes the network is re-configured to 192.168.0.x address, and an error is printed at the console several times:
"HTB: quantum of class 100001 is big. Consider r2q change."
The setup includes a machine booted from WANem 2.2 ISO, bandwidth limitation to 256 Mbps or so. Single NIC is configured.

nat show command fails

Sjaak — Mon, 22 Jun 2009 11:28:55 -0000

I'm using a physical computer with 2 ethernet ports and static network configuration.

After adding both ethernet ports using ' nat add' , I get an error when doing ' nat show'
The nat show fails saying:
root/wanem.sh line 28: [: eth0: unarry operator expected
No NAT enabled interface in WANem

After deleting one using 'nat del' the ' nat show' reports correct again.

nat command not in perc user

Sjaak — Mon, 15 Jun 2009 10:57:45 -0000

The wanem command 'nat' is very useful for easy setup.
However this command is not available when login in via SSH as user perc.

I use static IP adres configuration on 2 ethernet cards.
Otherwise boot/setup is giving me problems. This bug seems still to be open.

Joshua Klein — Mon, 09 Mar 2009 13:39:05 -0000

When I try to use VMware converter to bring the VM into my ESX server, the process fails immediately after I specify the .VMX file to work from with an error stating that the .vmx file has a missing catalog file.

Wrong version info in wanem console

Sjaak — Mon, 02 Mar 2009 10:19:32 -0000

Can't find the correct wanem version in the console.
after starting wanem 2.0 shell the reports v1.2

So I can't find out what wanem version the sysadm started on the system.
