ipcop-devel Mailing List for IPCop Firewall

I found a way to get the Telstra 4G USB Modem to work with IPCop. The 
model I have is ZTE MF821 there is also a post paid model Sierra 320U 
which should be able to work the same just has different USB IDs

I used the instructions in

http://www.eigenmagic.com/2012/03/14/how-to-get-telstra-4g-mobile-broadband-working-with-linux/

Also see this thread

http://forums.whirlpool.net.au/forum-replies.cfm?t=2060627&p=-1

but I have to run

modprobe usbserial

as the /dev/ttyUSB0 etc are not created automatically on boot or at any time

Also any chance that QMI WWAN driver support can be added to IPCop. This 
makes the USB Modems run as a network interface rather than using PPP 
and is much faster as PPP is limited to 25Mbit

Is an extension archaic but functional.

if you have doubt, ask me directly 


http://ipcop.exis.cl:8090/ipcop2-ha-addon.tar.gz




luck and patience for installation :)

Oscar Peredo <osc...@ex...>

My solution is free, is based in ucarp, with other programs for synchronization


i'm  writing a little manual for share my solution


it's based in plugin of HA for ipcop 1.4

Hi

The problem with VRRP has been that Cisco has patents that cover
some of it's functionalityand could be used against other people
that implement VRRP:
	https://www.ietf.org/ietf-ftp/IPR/VRRP-CISCO
	http://kerneltrap.org/node/477

Which is what caused OpenBSD to introduce CARP.

One tip. You can use VRRPD (http://off.net/~jme/vrrpd/). It's simple and
functional. I've had problems with crashes of the cluster using
UCARP(using IPCop 1.4).

Call me if you need help.

Hi

If you dislike Cisco's patent-burdened, then the most common open
source alternative is OpenBSD's CARP:
	http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_Address_Redundancy_Protocol
which has a Linux user space implementation called ucarp:
	http://www.pureftpd.org/project/ucarp


There is also the Linux Heartbeat from the Linux-HA project, which
can be run over serial or UDP to check if another system is OK:
	http://www.linux-ha.org/wiki/Heartbeat
	http://www.linux-ha.org/doc/users-guide/users-guide.html

It's often used with the Linux Virtual Server (high availability
not virtualised machines) to provide load balancing and failover:
	http://www.linuxvirtualserver.org/


These projects would not be a finished solution for IPCop and will
take some work to build and integrate them. To build these project
from source you will first need to get and build the IPCop source:
	http://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/ipcop/wiki/BuildingHowToV2

It's been many years since I've used them, but from memory ucarp
is probably the easiest to setup but it does not have "out of band"
(eg non-network) communication.

If you need a quick solution then the OpenBSD based Pfsense firewall
has inbuilt CARP with pfsync rules sync:
	http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PfSense

Hello guys, 
My company developed a HA solution for IPCop 2 with VRRP. But, is not a free
solution. We can make business in private.

Thanks!

Hey are you going to share your findings? I am also interested in the HA
