Problem: UDPCast transfer breaks DHCP leases
by Dubois Steve 25 Aug '16

Hello, We are facing a problem when using UDPCast in multicast mode. When I start a transfer from one pc to another, no problem. But when I start a transfer from one pc to two or more pc's, new booted clients can't get a ip-address from the DHCP-server anymore. We have a rather complicated network, with lots of subnets. I contacted network-support and they presume it could be a conflict with the VVPR (Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol) which also uses multicast. I already played with several settings, like: udp-sender --ttl 1 and udp-receiver --ttl 1 udp-sender --ttl 2 and udp-receiver --ttl 2 udp-sender --mcast-rdv-address 224.0.0.3 and udp-receiver --mcast-rdv-address 224.0.0.3 But the problem persists. The problem only starts when the actual transfer is initiated. While udp-receiver is waiting for the clients to connect there is no problem yet, but as soon as data is being transferred (multicast), new booted clients in the network can't find the DHCP-Server, don't get an IP-addresses, can't PXE boot anymore. I hope somebody understands what is going on here, and if there is a solution. We really need udpcast in our environment. Thanks in advance for all help.

maximum asynchronous speed and Jumbo Frames
by Martin Tullier 07 Mar '16

Hi there Richard, I have been looking into Data-Diodes using UDPcast as well over the past few weeks. I have seen speeds as high as 70Mbps on a 100Mbps ethernet link. It is usually more like 50+Mbps as this example shows. The file sent is 29,428,629 after uuencoding. The receiver side CMD: # time udp-receiver --interface p3p1 --start-time 30 --nosync --stat-period 2 --pipe /bin/uudecode Udp-receiver 20120424 Compressed UDP receiver for (stdout) at 10.37.49.21 on p3p1 Connected as #0 to 10.37.49.20 bytes= 29 428 629 ( 54.48 Mbps)) Transfer complete. real 0m4.680s user 0m0.166s sys 0m0.200s The sender side CMD: ]# time uuencode -m ./bigtestfile test33file | udp-sender --interface p1p1 --pointopoint --stat-period 3 --async --max-bitrate 100M --fec 16x16 --mcast-data-addr 10.37.49.21 stripes=16 redund=16 stripesize=128 Udp-sender 20120424 UDP sender for (stdin) at 10.37.49.20 on p1p1 Broadcasting control to 10.37.49.255 Ready. Press any key to start sending data. Starting transfer: 00000029 bytes= 29 428 629 re-xmits=0000000 ( 0.0%) slice=1024 - 00 Transfer complete. I am using 3 ethernet NICs to accomplish this: Two on the sender side, and One on the receiver. This is point to point and only about 8 feet in distance. The purpose of the 2 NICs on the sender is this: only one actually send the data 2 wires Tx. This NIC must receive "carrier" or somehow know that it is in fact connected to a network. Therefore the second NIC has its 2 wires Tx connected to the Rx side of the transmitting or sending NIC. Additionally all NICs involved must have their ethernet device attributes set the same manually. In my case that is 100Mbps half duplex with no autoneg there may be other attributes involve depending on the actual device used. All 3 NICs have and Ethernet ip address and ifconfig {device} up to bring them up. Since you are working with an actual Data Security Diode is a "Canary GT-10SD". How would you characterize this poor man's data diode? Also FYI: , no joy with upd-sender option "--nokbd". the sender is sending but with checksum errors. ______________________________ Martin Tullier
