Policy Routing Using Linux

Description

Title: Policy Routing Using Linux
Description:
Linux machines, with their low cost and practically infinite configurability,

work fantastically as specialized network nodes like routers and firewalls.

Matthew Marsh has done a lot of research into the applicability of Linux as a

router operating system--specifically to unusually complex IPv4 routing

requirements--and has compiled his findings into Policy Routing Using Linux.

It's a rich read for anyone interested in working with iproute2 or the Routing

Policy Database (RPDB). In fact, many of the concepts Marsh discusses are

applicable to routers generally; you'll find this book conceptually helpful (if

not practically so) even if you do your policy routing on other kinds of

equipment.
As policy routing is not a fundamental concept you must understand in order to

interconnect networks, this is not an introductory text. Marsh assumes knowledge

of IP addressing and routing concepts, and some familiarity with access control

and packet filtering. Given that base, the author explores policy routing

capabilities and limitations with great enthusiasm. He typically fills a couple

of pages with conceptual text and occasional diagrams, and then jumps to

examples. These alternate between command and configuration-file listings with

illuminating commentary. Special topics, such as the ability of Linux's policy

routing utilities to interact with dynamic routing protocols, are dealt with

adequately in sidebars. --David Wall

Topics covered: The application of policies to IPv4 and IPv6 routing problems,

with specific solutions outlined for the Linux operating system. Detailed

coverage goes to iproute2 and the Routing Policy Database (RPDB). Examples are

numerous and valuable.
