docker-accel-ppp

This repo contains two directories for creating images for accel-ppp:

  1. accel-pppd: Container running the accel-ppp daemon
  2. accel-ppp-drivers: Container for building the kernel modules and installing them to the host (ubuntu)

Build and run the containers

The Makefile defines targets for building and running the containers:

make build
make start

or equivalently:

make

You can also separately build the images and start the containers:

build-accel-ppp-drivers
start-accel-ppp-drivers

and

build-accel-pppd
start-accel-pppd

Please note that we currently only support ubuntu host machines. The KERNEL_VERSION of the host system can be specified to build the kernel modules for certain kernel versions. By default the kernel version is read by uname -r.

Setting VLAN tags

The accel-ppp container is able to create VLAN interfaces before it starts accel-ppp. The VLAN tags can be configured in the environment section of accel-pppd in the docker-compose.yml. A single outer tag can be specified as well as a list of inner tags. If no inner tags are specified the entrypoint script of accel-ppp will create interfaces for all VLANs 1-4094. If outer tag is 0 the script creates VLAN interfaces, that are not stacked. The proto can be either 802.1ad (S-tag) or 802.1Q (C-tag).

Test

We use test-kitchen with the vagrant driver kitchen-vagrant to test our containers. Please make sure vagrant is installed and runs properly.

Install bundler gem install bundler -v '1.17.3' and install the bundle from the Gemfile with bundle install.

Now you are ready to test the containers with kitchen:

kitchen create
kitchen converge
kitchen verify

To test if a pppoe connection to the accel-pppd container can be established login to the vagrant machine with kitchen login and run the pppoe client:

sudo pppd pty "/usr/sbin/pppoe -I docker0 -T 80 -U -m 1412" noccp ipparam vpeer-client-2 linkname docker0 noipdefault noauth default-asyncmap defaultroute hide-password updetach mtu 1492 mru 1492 noaccomp nodeflate nopcomp novj novjccomp lcp-echo-interval 40 lcp-echo-failure 3 user intel
