shncpd -- the simple, stupid and slow HNCP daemon
=================================================
shncpd is an implementation of the Home Networking Control Protocol (HNCP)
and associated protocols. It currently implements:
* DNCP flooding;
* prefix and address assignment;
* prefix delegation (manually configured);
* router advertisement server;
* DHCPv4 server.
It does not implement routing itself, but relies on babeld.
Compiling
---------
Compile with one of the following:
make
or
make EXTRA_DEFINES=-DUSE_LIBUBOX LDLIBS=-lubox
or
make EXTRA_DEFINES=-DUSE_OPENSSL LDLIBS=-lcrypto
Running
-------
First, run babeld and tell it to redistribute protocol 43:
babeld -C 'redistribute local deny' \
-C 'redistribute proto 43 allow' \
eth0 wlan0
Then, run shncpd, passing the list of (internal) Homenet interfaces on the
command line:
shncpd eth0 wlan0
In order to announce delegated prefixes and name servers, use the -E
and -N flags:
shncpd -E 2001:db8:42::/48 -N 2001:db8:42::53 \
-E 10.0.0.0/8 \
eth0 wlan0
There is a manual page -- if everything else fails, read the documentation.
