1 Hi,
2
3 finally I got set up pppoe, which turned out to be surprisingly easy.
4 It's working fine, though I'm getting a warning when the pppoe interface
5 is brought up:
6
7
8 heimdali init.d # service net.ppp0 start
9 * Bringing up interface ppp0
10 * Starting pppd in ppp0 ... [ ok ]
11 * Backgrounding ...
12 * WARNING: net.ppp0 has started, but is inactive
13 heimdali init.d #
14
15
16 Why is this warning showing, and what can I do about it?
17
18
19 How does pppoe work together with shorewall and bind?
20
21 When I stop the net.ppp0 service, shorewall is automatically stopped as
22 well. When I start net.ppp0, shorewall is not started automatically.
23
24 I would like to automatically have net.ppp0 first started and then
25 shorewall.
26
27
28 When net.ppp0 is stopped and restarted, I also must restart the name
29 server (bind) :( Otherwise it is unable to resolve anything.
30
31 Can this somehow be avoided? If not, can this be done automatically?

34 The log files show martian sources from a bridge device which is used
35 for the networking of a container:
36
37
38 [1734776.722127] IPv4: martian source 255.255.255.255 from 192.168.1.1, on dev enp2s0
39 [1734776.722132] ll header: 00000000: ff ff ff ff ff ff 00 0b 6b 81 c9 44 08 00 ........k..D..
40
41
42 The enp2s0 interface is used for pppoe, 192.168.1.1 is the IP of the
43 bridge. The bridge does not have a physical network interface assigned
44 to it.
45
46 The routefilter option is enabled on all interfaces. Why would there be
47 such a broadcast originating from the bridge, and how can I prevent it?

51 Again we must be afraid of speaking of daemons for fear that daemons
52 might swallow us. Finally, this fear has become reasonable.
