26#                          Internet
27#
28# The connection is implemented so that any ISP connection can go down
29# without loss of connectivity between the LAN and the Internet.  It is
30# of course also possible to shut down any link manually.
31#
32# There is a working example in ppp.*.span-isp.working that can be tested
33# on a single machine !
34#
35#
36# Prerequisites:
37#
38# o The Receiver machine must be in the outside world and must be willing
39#   to accept a multilink ppp connection over UDP, assigning a routable IP
40#   number to the Gateway machine.  This probably means that it must be
41#   a *BSD box as I know of no other ppp implementations that can use UDP
42#   as a transport.
43#
44# o The Receiver machine must be multi-homed with at least N+1 addresses
45#   where N is the maximun number of ISPs that you wish to use
46#   simultaneously.  We assume the IP numbers to be RIP1, RIP2 ... RIPN.
47#   REAL-LOCAL-IP is the real IP number of the Receiver machine (and must
48#   not be the same as any of the RIP* numbers).
49#
50# o Both the Gateway and the Receiver machines must have several tun
51#   interfaces configured into the kernel (see below).
52#
53# o Both the Gateway and the Receiver machines must have the following
54#   entry in /etc/services:
55#
56#      ppp 6671/udp
57#
58#   The port number isn't important, but it must be consistent across
59#   machines.
60#
61# o The Receiver machine must have the following entry in
62#   /etc/inetd.conf:
63#
64#      ppp dgram udp wait root /usr/sbin/ppp ppp -direct vpn-in
65#
66#   Note: Because inetd ``wait''s for ppp to finish, a single ppp
67#         invocation receives all incoming packets.  This creates
68#         havoc with LQR magic number checks, so LQR *must not* be
69#         enabled.
70#         Also, -direct invocations of ppp do sendto()s using the
71#         address that was last recvfrom()d.  This means that the
72#         returning traffic is a bit unbalanced.  Perhaps ppp should
73#         be smart enough to automatically clone an existing link
74#         when it detects a new incoming address.... tricky !
75#
76# If you use ppp to connect to your ISPs, the isp* profiles shold be used,
77# resulting in the vpn* profiles being called from ppp.linkup.span-isp.
78# These invocations will bond together into a MP ppp invocation.
79#
80# If the link to your ISP is via another type of interface (cable modem
81# etc), simply configure the interface with a netmask of 0xffffffff and
82# add a route to RIPN via the interface address (no default).  You can
83# then start ppp using the vpn-nic label.
84#
85# The Receiver machine should have N tun interfaces (where N is the maximum
86# number of ISPs that you wish to use simultaneously).  The Gateway machine
87# requires N interfaces plus an additional N interfaces (total 2 * N) if
88# you're using ppp to talk to the ISPs.
89
90# Using ppp to connect to your ISPs (PPP over UDP over PPP):
91#
92# When we connect to our ISPs using ppp, we start the MP ppp invocation
93# from ppp.linkup (see ppp.linkup.span-isp) for each link.  We also remove
94# the link from ppp.linkdown (see ppp.linkdown.span-isp).  This is necessary
95# because relying on our LQR strategy (dropping the link after 5 missing
96# replies) is just too slow to be practical in this environment.
97#
98# This works because the MP invocations are smart enough to recognise that
99# another process is already running and to pass the link over to that
100# running version.
101#
102# Only the ISP links should be started manually.  When they come up, they'll
103# start the MP invocation.
