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 work, some network protocols with Wireshark Protokollanalyser should be observed and described the deal with them. Wireshark is an offshoot of "Ethereal", one of the most popular protocol analyzer. Wireshark analysis network traffic, draws on it and make it clear . For the simulation of the network is used VNUML. Since VNUML can only be used under Linux, andLinux is running as a virtual machine in between to work in Windows to be able to.
In this thesis a Java program is developed that can be used to visualize networks previously described in configuration files. These networks must consist of layer 2 switches and hosts only. After loading such a configuration file, the program will visualize the network, and the spanning tree algorithm IEEE 802.1D may be started. The program allows the user to modify specific attributes of switches and hosts. The hosts will be able to exchange messages. The switches are realized as threads so that they can run independently and parallel to each other. The absence of central coordination and control prevents the switches from sharing global knowledge. This characteristic renders the implementation closer to the way an actual network functions.
The high cost of routing infrastructure makes checking theories about larger nets a very difficult and expensive task. One possible approach to fight this problem is the use of virtual instead of physical infrastructure. OPNet- IT Guru software is a suite designed to simulate large nets and present relevant information. This allows validating extensive changes before actually implementing them on a productive network or testing theories without the overhead of a physical infrastructure.
