AS112 using CentOS

By Frank Habicht

This what I have done for a CENTOS:

create these config files to enable IPs 192.175.48.1, 192.175.48.6 and
192.175.48.42 on loopback
$ cat /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-lo:0
# Loopback clone for AS112
DEVICE=lo:0
BOOTPROTO=static
BROADCAST=192.175.48.255
IPADDR=192.175.48.1
IPV6ADDR=
IPV6PREFIX=
NETMASK=255.255.255.0
NETWORK=192.175.48.0
ONBOOT=yes
$ cat /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-lo:1
# Loopback clone for AS112
DEVICE=lo:1
BOOTPROTO=static
BROADCAST=192.175.48.255
IPADDR=192.175.48.6
IPV6ADDR=
IPV6PREFIX=
NETMASK=255.255.255.0
NETWORK=192.175.48.0
ONBOOT=yes
$ cat /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-lo:2
# Loopback clone for AS112
DEVICE=lo:2
BOOTPROTO=static
BROADCAST=192.175.48.255
IPADDR=192.175.48.42
IPV6ADDR=
IPV6PREFIX=
NETMASK=255.255.255.0
NETWORK=192.175.48.0
ONBOOT=yes

then a
# /etc/init.d/network restart
should be in order to enable them

BIND (or other auth DNS server) has to be there:
$ rpm -q bind
bind-9.3.4-6.0.2.P1.el5_2

it is running chroot'ed in /var/named/chroot/

with a config file best taken from
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-dnsop-as112-ops-01#section-3.5

exmple:
# cat /var/named/chroot/etc/named.conf
options
{
        query-source    port 53;
        query-source-v6 port 53;

        // Put files that named is allowed to write in the data/ directory:
        directory "/var/named"; // the default
        dump-file               "data/cache_dump.db";
        statistics-file         "data/named_stats.txt";
        memstatistics-file      "data/named_mem_stats.txt";
        recursion no;

     listen-on {
       127.0.0.1;         // localhost
       196.223.5.226;     // local address (globally-unique, unicast)
       192.175.48.1;      // prisoner.iana.org    (anycast)
       192.175.48.6;      // blackhole-1.iana.org (anycast)
       192.175.48.42;     // blackhole-2.iana.org (anycast)
     };

};
logging
{
     channel default_debug {
         file "data/named.run";
         severity dynamic;
     };
     category default { default_debug; };
};

zone "." IN {
        type hint;
        file "named.root";
};

   // RFC 1918
   zone "10.in-addr.arpa" { type master; file "db.empty"; };
   zone "16.172.in-addr.arpa" { type master; file "db.empty"; };
   zone "17.172.in-addr.arpa" { type master; file "db.empty"; };
   zone "18.172.in-addr.arpa" { type master; file "db.empty"; };
   zone "19.172.in-addr.arpa" { type master; file "db.empty"; };
   zone "20.172.in-addr.arpa" { type master; file "db.empty"; };
   zone "21.172.in-addr.arpa" { type master; file "db.empty"; };

   zone "25.172.in-addr.arpa" { type master; file "db.empty"; };

   zone "27.172.in-addr.arpa" { type master; file "db.empty"; };
   zone "28.172.in-addr.arpa" { type master; file "db.empty"; };
   zone "29.172.in-addr.arpa" { type master; file "db.empty"; };
   zone "30.172.in-addr.arpa" { type master; file "db.empty"; };
   zone "31.172.in-addr.arpa" { type master; file "db.empty"; };
   zone "254.169.in-addr.arpa" { type master; file "db.empty"; };
   zone "168.192.in-addr.arpa" { type master; file "db.empty"; };

   // also answer authoritatively for the HOSTNAME.AS112.NET zone,
   // which contains data of operational relevance
   zone "hostname.as112.net" { type master;
     file "db.hostname.as112.net"; };

That was the BIND config file.

That should be all for the DNS.

since this machine has a default route that caters for all use, we don't need to
get the BGP rib into the fib. no zebra process. YMMV.
but activating bgp process (also for restarts):

chkconfig --level 35 bgpd on
/etc/init.d/bgpd start
