hi everyone,
Now I am learning the configuration generated by make-ip-conf.pl. I have some questions.
First,
why the ip router does not send ARP queries?
why the IP router just receive ARP queries and responses ?
Second,
what does the following mean?
rt[0] -> EtherEncap(0x0800, 1:1:1:1:1:1, 2:2:2:2:2:2) -> toh;
who is 1:1:1:1:1:1, who is 2:2:2:2:2:2 ?
Does the element toh send the frames it received to the machine with MAC address 2:2:2:2:2:2?
Third,
why FixIPSrc exists ?
to my knowledge, if an IP packet is not used for source routing, there is no need for the router to modify the IP packet's source address.
But in the configuration generated by make-ip-conf.pl, the IP address of every packet which need to be forwarded is modified, for the element FixIPSrc(18.26.4.92) and FixIPSrc(1.0.0.1).
Thank you!
