[gentoo-user] arping network profile issue

Hi folks,
I setup a network interface to switch in two different network with
different gateways using config_eth0=( "arping" ), and I can get gateway mac
when use arping2 command directly.
But the /etc/init.d/net.eth0 start always fails, can you help me to find the
issue out?

$ cat /etc/conf.d/net
# This blank configuration will automatically use DHCP for any net.*
# scripts in /etc/init.d.  To create a more complete configuration,
# please review /etc/conf.d/net.example and save your configuration
# in /etc/conf.d/net (this file :]!).

dns_domain="vm"
config_eth0=( "arping" )

gateways_eth0=( "192.168.1.254,,192.168.1.114 192.168.1.1,,192.168.1.114" )

#config_eth0=( "192.168.1.114/24" )
#dns_servers_eth0=( "8.8.8.8 8.8.4.4" )
#routes_192168001001=( "default via 192.168.1.1" )

config_192168001254=( "192.168.1.114/24" )
routes_192168001254=( "default via 192.168.1.254" )

dns_servers_eth0=( "8.8.8.8 8.8.4.4" )

fallback_eth0=( "dhcp" )
dhcp_eth0="nodns"

$ sudo arping2 -0 -r -c 1 -i eth0 -S 192.168.1.114 192.168.1.254
00:1d:xx:xx:xx:xx

Thanks for your help.

Sorry it's a test profile, to avoid misunderstanding, post my profile here,
and this file not working too.

I cant understand what you're trying to achieve. IP will always do the
arp for you so just set up the IP level stuff and whatever you're trying
to do should work.

AFAICT This means you want to try to find a free address in the
169.254.x.x auto self configuration range - is that what you want?

> gateways_eth0=( "192.168.1.254,,192.168.1.114 192.168.1.1,,192.168.1.114" )

As none of those addresses are local, they cant be used as a gateway for
a 169.254 address.

What I want is finding a gateway out with ARP, and then assign the correct
gateway/route table, stuff in the configuration can be found in
/etc/conf.d/net.example.
BTW, what's "IP level stuff" meaning? thanks.

You cant discover a router with ARP. ARP finds the MAC address of a host
that's associated with a given IP address.

Ways of getting a ipv4 gateway are;
- manual configuration
- DHCP
- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ICMP_Router_Discovery_Protocol

I found this in gentoo wiki, and the same configuration in
/etc/conf.d/net.example
http://en.gentoo-wiki.com/wiki/Network_profiles_with_arping
I guess, it works like, first you find a specific IP/MAX pair w/ ARP, then a
manual configuration according the IP/MAC.

Are you sure that your routers do not respond to the default source address 
0.0.0.0 arping request?  Have you tried changing this to:

gateways_eth0=( "192.168.1.254 192.168.1.1" )

The option -0 negates the -S 192.168.1.114.  Use one or the other.

If it works with option -0 then use my suggested format for gateways_eth0= 
because you do not need to spoof the arping address.

HTH.
