NHRP provides +an ARP-like solution that allows a system to dynamically learn the NBMA +address of the other systems that are part of that network, allowing +these systems to directly communicate without requiring traffic to use +an intermediate hop. + +Cisco Dynamic Multipoint VPN (DMVPN) is based on NHRP, and +@value{PACKAGE_NAME} nhrpd implements this scenario. + +@menu +* Routing Design:: +* Configuring NHRP:: +* Hub Functionality:: +* Integration with IKE:: +* NHRP Events:: +* Configuration Example:: +@end menu + +@node Routing Design +@section Routing Design + +nhrpd never handles routing of prefixes itself. You need to run some +real routing protocol (e.g. BGP) to advertise routes over the tunnels. +What nhrpd does it establishes 'shortcut routes' that optimizes the +routing protocol to avoid going through extra nodes in NBMA GRE mesh. + +nhrpd does route NHRP domain addresses individually using per-host prefixes. +This is similar to Cisco FlexVPN; but in contrast to opennhrp which uses +a generic subnet route. + +To create NBMA GRE tunnel you might use the following (linux terminal +commands): +@example +@group + ip tunnel add gre1 mode gre key 42 ttl 64 + ip addr add 10.255.255.2/32 dev gre1 + ip link set gre1 up +@end group +@end example + +Note that the IP-address is assigned as host prefix to gre1. nhrpd will +automatically create additional host routes pointing to gre1 when +a connection with these hosts is established. + +The gre1 subnet prefix should be announced by routing protocol from the +hub nodes (e.g. BGP 'network' announce). This allows the routing protocol +to decide which is the closest hub and determine the relay hub on prefix +basis when direct tunnel is not established. + +nhrpd will redistribute directly connected neighbors to zebra. Within +hub nodes, these routes should be internally redistributed using some +routing protocol (e.g. iBGP) to allow hubs to be able to relay all traffic. + +This can be achieved in hubs with the following bgp configuration (network +command defines the GRE subnet): +@example +@group +router bgp 65555 + network 172.16.0.0/16 + redistribute nhrp +@end group +@end example + + +@node Configuring NHRP +@section Configuring NHRP + +FIXME + +@node Hub Functionality +@section Hub Functionality + +In addition to routing nhrp redistributed host prefixes, the hub nodes +are also responsible to send NHRP Traffic Indication messages that +trigger creation of the shortcut tunnels. + +nhrpd sends Traffic Indication messages based on network traffic captured +using NFLOG. Typically you want to send Traffic Indications for network +traffic that is routed from gre1 back to gre1 in rate limited manner. +This can be achieved with the following iptables rule. + +@example +@group +iptables -A FORWARD -i gre1 -o gre1 \ + -m hashlimit --hashlimit-upto 4/minute --hashlimit-burst 1 \ + --hashlimit-mode srcip,dstip --hashlimit-srcmask 24 --hashlimit-dstmask 24 \ + --hashlimit-name loglimit-0 -j NFLOG --nflog-group 1 --nflog-range 128 +@end group +@end example + +You can fine tune the src/dstmask according to the prefix lengths you +announce internal, add additional IP range matches, or rate limitation +if needed.
