Die Arbeit beschäftigt sich mit der für Router und Kleingeräte entwickelten Linux-Distribution OpenWrt. Im ersten Teil der Arbeit wird die Erstellung von Softwarepaketen für OpenWrt erläutert und eine Anzeige- und Konfigurationskomponente für die Dateien des Quagga RIP-Daemons für die Benutzeroberfläche LuCI erstellt. Im zweiten Teil wird der Aufbau eines Testnetzwerkes mit OpenWrt Routern dokumentiert, sowie die Anbindung an VNUML-virtualisierte Netzwerke.
In this thesis we discuss the increasingly important routing aggregation and its consequences on avoiding routing loops. As basis for implementation and evaluation I will use the RMTI protocol, developed at the University of Koblenz, which is an evolution of the RFC2453 specified in the Routing Information Protocol version 2. The virtual network environment Virtual Network User Mode Linux (VNUML) is used within this thesis as environment. With VNUML it is possible to operate and evaluate real network scenarios in a virtual environment. The RMTI has already proven its ability to detect topological loops and thereby prevent the formation of these routing loops. In this thesis we will describe the function of the RMTI and then discuss under which circumstances we can use routing aggregation, without it resulting in routing anomalies. In order to implement these changes it is essential to have a deeper understanding of the structure of routing tables, so the construction will be explained using reference to examples. There follows a description of which points have to be changed, in the RMTI in order to avoid loops despite aggregation. In Summary we will evaluate the affect the routing aggregation has on the reorganization ability of the virtual network.
