mrouted v4.1

on GitHub

Minor feature and bug fix release.

Changes

• Issue #40: Automatically detect and add altnet to interfaces with multiple addresses, possible thanks to work on #36
• Reduce number of exposed aliases to debug sub-systems in online help text and man page. Only primary name, as of mrouted v3.9-beta3
• Removed noisy timer sub-system from -d all, use -d all, timer
• Document a lot of mrouted.conf options available in this version of mrouted since before v3.9, but not in the OpenBSD, based on v3.8:
  • prune-lifetime
  • rexmit-prunes
  • phyint and tunnel interface flags:
    - advert-metric
    - allow-nonpruners
    - blaster
    - force-leaf
    - noflood
    • passive
      • prune-lifetime
      • rexmit-prunes
  • The tunnel option beside off
  • Router filtering options with accept, deny, and notransit

Fixes

• Fix update of mrouted.genid on SIGHUP and reboot. mrouted replaced contents with the value zero (0), causing a zero genid in DVMRP as well, which likely caused peering issues with some implementations
• Fix build warning on Clang 3.4.1 (FreeBSD 10.3)
• Workaround for older autoconf without --runstatedir support
• Fix double free in pidfile()
• Fix #35: Cannot disable multicast routing in kernel: Permission denied when starting up.
• Fix #36: Refactor interface probing and bringup. Fixes issue with the no phyint config option not working, introduced in v4.0
• Fix #37: Fix bad path for mrouted.genid, should be in /var/lib/misc on Linux and /var/db on *BSD
• Fix #38: Document and improve error message when running out of IGMP groups on Linux. When running with many interfaces
• Fix #40: Detect and warn if multicast ingresses an unknown vif
