tunnel.py command not working.

[Sajjad Safdar]

HI,

I am using tunnel.py command to setup a TCP/IP link between two usrp1. When i try to use the command , i get this error

./tunnel.py

linux; GNU C++ version 4.6.3; Boost_104800; UHD_003.005.001-29-g3cb515f7

Traceback (most recent call last):

  File "./tunnel.py", line 295, in <module>

    main()

  File "./tunnel.py", line 241, in main

    (tun_fd, tun_ifname) = open_tun_interface(options.tun_device_filename)

  File "./tunnel.py", line 79, in open_tun_interface

    ifs = ioctl(tun, TUNSETIFF, struct.pack("16sH", "gr%d", mode))

IOError: [Errno 1] Operation not permitted

ANy suggestions,

BEST REGARDS;

Try running it with root rights, i.e. "sudo ./tunnel.py". Also make sure
that the device actually exists, run "ifconfig tun0".

Hi,

Yes now it works but can not able to ping the Machines. I am using RFX400 daughter card and set 192.168.200.1 and 192.168.200.2 respectively on machine A and B.

On machine A:

  
  # sudo ./tunnel.py --freq 423.0M --bitrate 500k -A TX/RX -v
  # # in another window on A,
  # ifconfig gr0 192.168.200.1


On machine B:

  
  # sudo ./tunnel.py --freq 423.0M --bitrate 500k -A TX/RX -v
  # # in another window on B
  # ifconfig gr0 192.168.200.2

I got the following outputs

ON MACHINE A after setting up the virtual ethernet by sudo ifconfig gr0 192.168.200.1:

But i am not able to ping the two machines. The settings and parameters used looks correct but ping does not work on either.

Try running it with root rights, i.e. "sudo ./tunnel.py". Also make sure
that the device actually exists, run "ifconfig tun0".

Try using different transmit and receive frequencies. tunnel.py has
some serious issues, and among them is with how data is handled with
the UHD interface where it doesn't really handle the proper SOB and
BOB concepts that would allow you to do full duplex on the same
frequency. At this point, I'm not even sure doing FDD is going to work
properly with it.

Tom what do you mean by using different Tx & Rx frequencies.

Also recently I did following. I connected 2 usrp with a single PC and ran 2 instances of tunnel in it with 1 usrp for each. Made two virtual ethernet interfaces gr0 & gr1 also set two different ip addresses. And I was able to ping from one ip address to another. I also did ssh and scp.

Now suddenly I am getting doubt that was that a wireless ping ?? Or was it just withing a system i.e ping between two virtual ethernet interfaces inside the system.

If it was within the system then I might have made a wrong screen cast on this tunnel thing which I recently uploaded on my channel

I mean exactly that: use different frequencies like in an FDD system.
Set the transmit frequency to f_tx and the receive frequency to f_rx.
When you run "tunnel.py -h", you'll see options "--tx-freq" and
"--rx-freq". Just setting "--freq" automatically sets tx_freq =
rx_freq = freq.

It was probably being done internally. First check your routing table,
but your system is probably being smart and just passing packets over
the loopback device. You can use wireshark/tcpdump to check this out.
