NAME

ip, IP - Internet Protocol

SYNOPSIS

#include

s = socket(AF_INET, SOCK_RAW, proto);

t = t_open ("/dev/rawip", O_RDWR);

DESCRIPTION

IP is the internetwork datagram delivery protocol that is central to the Internet protocol family. Programs may use IP

through higher-level protocols such as the Transmission Con-

trol Protocol (TCP) or the User Datagram Protocol (UDP), or may interface directly to IP. See tcp(7P) and udp(7P). Direct access may be by means of the socket interface, using a "raw socket," or by means of the Transport Level Interface (TLI). The protocol options defined in the IP specification may be set in outgoing datagrams. Packets sent to or from this system may be subject to IPsec

policy. See ipsec(7P) for more information.

APPLICATION PROGRAMMING INTERFACE

The STREAMS driver /dev/rawip is the TLI transport provider

that provides raw access to IP. Raw IP sockets are connectionless and are normally used with the sendto() and recvfrom() calls (see send(3SOCKET) and recv(3SOCKET)), although the connect(3SOCKET) call may also be used to fix the destination for future datagram. In this case, the read(2) or recv(3SOCKET) and write(2) or

send(3SOCKET) calls may be used. If proto is IPPROTO_RAW or

IPPROTO_IGMP, the application is expected to include a com-

plete IP header when sending. Otherwise, that protocol number will be set in outgoing datagrams and used to filter incoming datagrams and an IP header will be generated and prepended to each outgoing datagram. In either case, received datagrams are returned with the IP header and options intact.

Protocols ip(7P)

If an application uses IP_HDRINCL and provides the IP header

contents, the IP stack does not modify the following sup-

plied fields under any conditions: Type of Service, DF Flag, Protocol, and Destination Address. The IP Options and IHL

fields are set by use of IP_OPTIONS, and Total Length is

updated to include any options. Version is set to the

default. Identification is chosen by the normal IP ID selec-

tion logic. The source address is updated if none was speci-

fied and the TTL is changed if the packet has a broadcast destination address. Since an applicaton cannot send down fragments (as IP assigns the IP ID), Fragment Offset is always 0. The IP Checksum field is computed by IP. None of the data beyond the IP header are changed, including the

application-provided transport header.

The socket options supported at the IP level are:

IP_OPTIONS IP options for outgoing datagrams.

This socket option may be used to set

IP options to be included in each out-

going datagram. IP options to be sent are set with setsockopt() (see getsockopt(3SOCKET)). The getsockopt(3SOCKET) call returns the

IP options set in the last set-

sockopt() call. IP options on received datagrams are visible to user programs only using raw IP sockets. The format of IP options given in setsockopt() matches those defined in the IP specification with one exception: the

list of addresses for the source rout-

ing options must include the first-hop

gateway at the beginning of the list

of gateways. The first-hop gateway

address will be extracted from the option list and the size adjusted accordingly before use. IP options may be used with any socket type in the Internet family.

IP_SEC_OPT Enable or obtain IPsec security set-

tings for this socket. For more details on the protection services of

IPsec, see ipsec(7P).

IP_ADD_MEMBERSHIP Join a multicast group.

SunOS 5.11 Last change: 15 Jun 2010 2

Protocols ip(7P)

IP_DROP_MEMBERSHIP Leave a multicast group.

IP_BOUND_IF Limit reception and transmission of

packets to this interface. Takes an integer as an argument. The integer is the selected interface index.

The following options take in_pktinfo_t as the parameter:

IP_PKTINFO

Set the source address and/or transmit interface of the

packet(s). Note that the IP_BOUND_IF socket option takes

precedence over the interface index passed in

IP_PKTINFO.

struct in_pktinfo {

unsigned int ipi_ifindex;/* send/recv interface index */

struct in_addr ipi_spec_dst;/* matched source addr. */

struct in_addr ipi_addr;/* src/dst addr. in IP hdr */

} in_pktinfo_t;

When passed in (on transmit) via ancillary data with

IP_PKTINFO, ipi_spec_dst is used as the source address

and ipi_ifindex is used as the interface index to send

the packet out.

IP_RECVPKTINFO

Enable/disable receipt of the index of the interface the

packet arrived on, the local address that was matched

for reception, and the inbound packet's actual destina-

tion address. Takes boolean as the parameter. Returns

struct in_pktinfo_t as ancillary data.

The following options take a struct ip_mreq as the parame-

ter. The structure contains a multicast address which must

be set to the CLASS-D IP multicast address and an interface

address. Normally the interface address is set to INADDR_ANY

which causes the kernel to choose the interface on which to join.

IP_BLOCK_SOURCE Block multicast packets whose

source address matches the given source address. The specified group must be joined

previously using

IP_ADD_MEMBERSHIP or

MCAST_JOIN_GROUP.

IP_UNBLOCK_SOURCE Unblock (begin receiving) mul-

ticast packets which were pre-

viously blocked using

IP_BLOCK_SOURCE.

IP_ADD_SOURCE_MEMBERSHIP Begin receiving packets for the

given multicast group whose source address matches the specified address.

IP_DROP_SOURCE_MEMBERSHIP Stop receiving packets for the

given multicast group whose source address matches the specified address.

The following options take a struct ip_mreq_source as the

parameter. The structure contains a multicast address (which

must be set to the CLASS-D IP multicast address), an inter-

face address, and a source address.

MCAST_JOIN_GROUP Join a multicast group. Func-

tionally equivalent to

IP_ADD_MEMBERSHIP.

MCAST_BLOCK_SOURCE Block multicast packets whose

source address matches the given source address. The specified group must be joined previously

using IP_ADD_MEMBERSHIP or

MCAST_JOIN_GROUP.

MCAST_UNBLOCK_SOURCE Unblock (begin receiving) multi-

cast packets which were previ-

ously blocked using

MCAST_BLOCK_SOURCE.

MCAST_LEAVE_GROUP Leave a multicast group. Func-

tionally equivalent to

IP_DROP_MEMBERSHIP.

SunOS 5.11 Last change: 15 Jun 2010 4

Protocols ip(7P)

MCAST_JOIN_SOURCE_GROUP Begin receiving packets for the

given multicast group whose source address matches the specified address.

MCAST_LEAVE_SOURCE_GROUP Stop receiving packets for the

given multicast group whose source address matches the specified address.

The following options take a struct group_req or struct

group_source_req as the parameter. The `group_req structure

contains an interface index and a multicast address which

must be set to the CLASS-D multicast address. The

group_source_req structure is used for those options which

include a source address. It contains an interface index, multicast address, and source address.

IP_MULTICAST_IF The outgoing interface for multicast

packets. This option takes a struct

in_addr as an argument, and it selects

that interface for outgoing IP multi-

cast packets. If the address specified

is INADDR_ANY, it uses the unicast

routing table to select the outgoing interface (which is the default behavior).

IP_MULTICAST_TTL Time to live for multicast datagrams.

This option takes an unsigned character as an argument. Its value is the TTL that IP uses on outgoing multicast datagrams. The default is 1.

IP_MULTICAST_LOOP Loopback for multicast datagrams. Nor-

mally multicast datagrams are delivered to members on the sending host (or sending zone). Setting the unsigned character argument to 0 causes the opposite behavior, meaning that when

multiple zones are present, the

datagrams are delivered to all zones except the sending zone.

IP_RECVIF Receive the inbound interface index.

SunOS 5.11 Last change: 15 Jun 2010 5

Protocols ip(7P)

IP_TOS This option takes an integer argument

as its input value. The least signifi-

cant 8 bits of the value are used to set the Type Of Service field in the IP header of the outgoing packets.

IP_DONTFRAG This option controls whether IP will

allow fragmentation both locally (frag-

menting the packets before sending them out on the wire), and in the network (whether or not the Don't Fragment flag

will be set in the IPv4 header). Set-

ting the option to any non-zero value

disables fragmentation. Setting the option to zero enables fragmentation. When fragmentation is disabled then IP will not create any Path MTU state on behalf of this socket.

IP_NEXTHOP This option specifies the address of

the onlink nexthop for traffic ori-

ginating from that socket. It causes the routing table to be bypassed and outgoing traffic is sent directly to the specified nexthop. This option

takes an ipaddr_t argument representing

the IPv4 address of the nexthop as the

input value. The IP_NEXTHOP option

takes precedence over IPOPT_LSRR.

IP_BOUND_IF and SO_DONTROUTE take pre-

cedence over IP_NEXTHOP. This option

has no meaning for broadcast and multi-

cast packets. The application must ensure that the specified nexthop is alive. An application may want to

specify the IP_NEXTHOP option on a TCP

listener socket only for incoming requests to a particular IP address. In this case, it must avoid binding the

socket to INADDR_ANY and instead must

bind the listener socket to the

specific IP address. In addition, typi-

cally the application may want the incoming and outgoing interface to be the same. In this case, the application must select a suitable nexthop that is onlink and reachable via the desired interface and do a setsockopt

(IP_NEXTHOP) on it. Then it must bind

to the IP address of the desired

interface. Setting the IP_NEXTHOP

option requires the PRIV_SYS_NET_CONFIG

privilege.

The multicast socket options (IP_MULTICAST_IF,

IP_MULTICAST_TTL, IP_MULTICAST_LOOP and IP_RECVIF) can be

used with any datagram socket type in the Internet family.

At the socket level, the socket option SO_DONTROUTE may be

applied. This option forces datagrams being sent to bypass routing and forwarding by forcing the IP Time To Live field to 1, meaning that the packet will not be forwarded by routers. Raw IP datagrams can also be sent and received using the TLI connectionless primitives. Datagrams flow through the IP layer in two directions: from the network up to user processes and from user processes down to the network. Using this orientation, IP is layered above the network interface drivers and below the transport protocols such as UDP and TCP. The Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) is logically a part of IP. See icmp(7P). IP provides for a checksum of the header part, but not the data part, of the datagram. The checksum value is computed and set in the process of sending datagrams and checked when receiving datagrams. IP options in received datagrams are processed in the IP layer according to the protocol specification. Currently recognized IP options include: security, loose source and record route (LSRR), strict source and record route (SSRR), record route, and internet timestamp. By default, the IP layer will not forward IPv4 packets that are not addressed to it. This behavior can be overridden by

using routeadm(1M) to enable the ipv4-forwarding option.

IPv4 forwarding is configured at boot time based on the set-

ting of routeadm(1M)'s ipv4-forwarding option.

For backwards compatibility, IPv4 forwarding can be enabled

or disabled using ndd(1M)'s ip_forwarding variable. It is

SunOS 5.11 Last change: 15 Jun 2010 7

Protocols ip(7P)

set to 1 if IPv4 forwarding is enabled, or 0 if it is dis-

abled.

Additionally, finer-grained forwarding can be configured in

IP. Each interface can be configured to forward IP packets

by setting the IFF_ROUTER interface flag. This flag can be

set and cleared using ifconfig(1M)'s router and router

options. If an interface's IFF_ROUTER flag is set, packets

can be forwarded to or from the interface. If it is clear, packets will neither be forwarded from this interface to others, nor forwarded to this interface. Setting the

ip_forwarding variable sets all of the IPv4 interfaces'

IFF_ROUTER flags.

For backwards compatibility, each interface creates an

:ip_forwarding /dev/ip variable that can be modified

using ndd(1M). An interface's :ip_forwarding ndd variable is

a boolean variable that mirrors the status of its IFF_ROUTER

interface flag. It is set to 1 if the flag is set, or 0 if

it is clear. This interface specific :ip_forwarding

ndd variable is obsolete and may be removed in a future

release of Solaris. The ifconfig(1M) router and -router

interfaces are preferred. The IP layer sends an ICMP message back to the source host in many cases when it receives a datagram that can not be handled. A "time exceeded" ICMP message is sent if the "time to live" field in the IP header drops to zero in the process

of forwarding a datagram. A "destination unreachable" mes-

sage is sent if a datagram can not be forwarded because there is no route to the final destination, or if it can not be fragmented. If the datagram is addressed to the local host but is destined for a protocol that is not supported or a port that is not in use, a destination unreachable message is also sent. The IP layer may send an ICMP "source quench"

message if it is receiving datagrams too quickly. ICMP mes-

sages are only sent for the first fragment of a fragmented datagram and are never returned in response to errors in other ICMP messages. The IP layer supports fragmentation and reassembly. Datagrams are fragmented on output if the datagram is larger than the maximum transmission unit (MTU) of the network interface. Fragments of received datagrams are dropped from

the reassembly queues if the complete datagram is not recon-

structed within a short time period.

Protocols ip(7P)

Errors in sending discovered at the network interface driver layer are passed by IP back up to the user process. PACKET EVENTS

Through the netinfo framework, this driver provides the fol-

lowing packet events: Physical in Packets received on a network interface from an external source. Physical out Packets to be sent out a network interface. Forwarding Packets being forwarded through this host to another network. loopback in Packets that have been sent by a local application to another. loopback out Packets about to be received by a local application from another. Currently, only a single function may be registered for each event. As a result, if the slot for an event is already occupied by someone else, a second attempt to register a callback fails. To receive packet events in a kernel module, it is first necessary to obtain a handle for either IPv4 or IPv6

traffic. This is achieved by passing NHF_INET or NHF_INET6

through to a net_protocol_lookup() call. The value returned

from this call must then be passed into a call to

net_register_hook(), along with a description of the hook to

add. For a description of the structure passed through to

the callback, please see hook_pkt_event(9S). For IP packets,

this structure is filled out as follows:

hpe_ifp Identifier indicating the inbound interface for

packets received with the physical in event.

hpe_ofp Identifier indicating the outbound interface for

packets received with the physical out event.

ethernet header).

hpe_mp Pointer to the start of the mblk_t chain contain-

ing the IP packet.

hpe_mb Pointer to the mblk_t with the IP header in it.

NETWORK INTERFACE EVENTS In addition to events describing packets as they move

through the system, it is also possible to receive notifica-

tion of events relating to network interfaces. These events are all reported back through the same callback. The list of events is as follows:

plumb A new network interface has been instan-

tiated.

unplumb A network interface is no longer associ-

ated with this protocol. up At least one logical interface is now ready to receive packets. down There are no logical interfaces expecting to receive packets.

address change An address has changed on a logical inter-

face.
