dhtsession

This prototype attempts to store TCP sessions in a DHT. Atm its nice and slow and not fully working :)

Installation:

Of course:

git clone https://github.com/pboers1988/dhtsession
pip install pynetfilter_conntrack
pip install ipy

Then you need to clone a dht implementation and install it. (Installing it with pip is broke)

git clone https://github.com/isaaczafuta/pydht
cd pydht
python setup.py install

and

apt install libnetfilter-conntrack3

##Requirements: Make sure you are tracking connections. The easiest way to do this is, by adding following rule in IPTABLES

iptables -I INPUT -m state --state NEW,RELATED,ESTABLISHED,INVALID,UNTRACKED -j ACCEPT

Next you need to disable the pesky TCP RST's otherwise its going to ruin your day and make the client close its connection while you are trying to forward it

iptables -A OUTPUT -p tcp --tcp-flags RST RST -j DROP

Furthermore as this is all in userspace and in python :) you need to add a bit of a delay on the link to make it work as expected. We do this with the tc tool

tc qdisc add dev eth1 root netem delay 10ms

Usage

A number of options exist

-a The bootstrap address for the DHT server
-p The port of the DHT server (defaults to 7000)
-s The TCP port you want to filter on and store in the DHT (defaults to 8080)
-i The ip Identifier of the node.
-c The anycast ip that is configured

Example:

python main.py  -a 10.100.10.1 -i 10.100.10.4 -c 192.168.0.1

How to test

On all servers create a file of around 2 gig in /root/2gig.bin

Go to spine01 on the topology

curl 192.168.0.1:8080 > file

then on spine01 bring the interface down over which the data is travelling. If the overlay works well it should forward the packets

Important

It could be possible that the overlay is not completeley stable just after startup, if so just restart it and wait about 10 sec before you send traffic to it.
