Metarouter images

RouterOS Virtualization
1

As you know, new RouterOS versions now support other OS images for MetaRouter, so we welcome you - the users - to try this, and make new images that work. If you share your ready made images, that actually work with RouterOS MetaRouter, and add meaningful features (for example Asterix for VOIP, IPcop for firewall etc.), I will give you a Level6 license for an article in the Wiki and the Image.

The first image is already made - run your own OpenWRT inside a RouterOS machine:

A list of different distributions is here:

Note that RB450G has 256MB of RAM, which is perfect for this kind of application.

2

Other interesting ideas would be:
*) linux image running squid proxy server (for those who don’t like Mikrotik proxy)
*) linux image running intrusion detection system (snort).
I have seen several requests to integrate IDS into RouterOS. Now it is possible by using metarouter or xen.

3

I tried this first image of OpenWRT on RB450G and after install have next comments:

1) I can’t change password for root:

2) may be problem with fs metafs? output of mount:

3) after it I recompile OpenWRT to latest trunk (r16316) with many extra packages (like asterisk14, asterisk16, snort, nmap, openser, X-wrt, tcpdump and many other - about 150), but with same result: 8-(

v3.24 has some file problems. Wait for v3.25 where this bug is fixed.

5

I installed ROS 3.25 (temp version) on RB450G - error is the same.
May be need new patch for OpenWRT and rebuild image?
metarourer-1.jpg

6

this should be the latest patch. Try to rebuild, if not working contact support.
http://www.mikrotik.com/download/openwrt-metarouter.patch

7

Yes - it was last patch - now I download patch again and:
[nik@vm0 trunk]#diff openwrt-metarouter-old.patch openwrt-metarouter.patch
[nik@vm0 trunk]

same files… 8-(
May be need try build not trunk - 2 day ago released OpenWRT 8.09.1?

8

send supout.rif to support@mikrotik.com

9

Anyone who had problems with file permissions and other similar problems,
*) upgrade to latest version v3.25
*) co latest openwrt trunk
*) patch and rebuild openwrt
Link to new patch:
http://www.mikrotik.com/download/openwrt-metarouter-1.1.patch

10

when will be 3.25?

11

later today

Thanks to support Mikrotik.
I rebuild OpenWRT to latest trunk with new patch and wait final v.3.25
I try this image in v.3.24 and v.3.25 beta - passwd doesn’t work - wait final.

to ayufan and support Mikrotik.
Error apply patch: last patch not finish with empty string (CR-LF after prelast string).
After it patch was successfully apply.

:frowning:

Don’t worry, Normis has a timemachine…
When he finds out that he forgot it, he will go back in time and upload :slight_smile:

16

I builded latest trunk image OpenWRT (r16437) for Metarouter with new patch.
And wait final v.3.25, with doesn’t has bug with hardlinks:
MT support writed me:
here was a problem with hardlinks. It will be fixed in v3.25 also
to fix the problem you will need to rebuild latest trunk with new patch.

My image contains base files and 2 extra packages: mc(with subshell support) and bash:

root@OpenWrt:~#

You can try this image.
Many extra packages here

Basic setting – network:

Use openwrt tool UCI or you can manual edit file /etc/config/network

Prepare: don’t forget setup correct interface to current system in metarouter setting (look wiki),
for check try:

root@OpenWrt:/# ifconfig
br-lan Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 02:7F:3D:7B:EA:22

collisions:0 txqueuelen:0
RX bytes:1632 (1.5 KiB) TX bytes:1632 (1.5 KiB)

If you see it – you can start next step.

  1. show current setting:
    root@OpenWrt:/# uci show network.lan
    network.lan=interface
    network.lan.ifname=eth0
    network.lan.type=bridge
    network.lan.proto=static
    network.lan.netmask=255.255.255.0
    network.lan.ipaddr=192.168.1.1

  2. setting your define IP setting:
    uci set network.lan.ipaddr=“192.168.1.3”
    uci set network.lan.netmask=“255.255.255.0”
    uci set network.lan.gateway=“192.168.1.254”
    uci set network.lan.dns=“192.168.1.254”
    uci commit

  3. fixed DNS for static IP setup
    default install file /etc/resolv.conf has symlink to /tmp/resolv.conf
    root@OpenWrt:/# cat /etc/resolv.conf
    nameserver 127.0.0.1
    we need to stop and disable dnsmasq demon
    root@OpenWrt:/# /etc/init.d/dnsmasq stop
    root@OpenWrt:/# /etc/init.d/dnsmasq disable
    After it will be create symlink from /tmp/resolv.conf to /tmp/resolv.conf.auto

  4. set define hostname:
    root@OpenWrt:/# uci show system
    system.@system[0]=system
    system.@system[0].timezone=UTC
    system.@system[0].hostname=OpenWrt
    root@OpenWrt:/# uci set system.@system[0].hostname=“Metarouter”
    root@OpenWrt:/# uci commit
    root@OpenWrt:/etc# uci show system
    system.@system[0]=system
    system.@system[0].timezone=UTC
    system.@system[0].hostname=Metarouter

  5. Now we have correct LAN setting: ip address, default gw, DNS, hostname


    Basic setting – change root password:

As command “passwd” doesn’t work correct yet – manual edit file /etc/password to setup password “123”
before edit:
root@OpenWrt:~# cat /etc/passwd
root:!:0:0:root:/root:/bin/bash
nobody::65534:65534:nobody:/var:/bin/false
daemon::65534:65534:daemon:/var:/bin/false
after edit:
root@OpenWrt:~# cat /etc/passwd
root:$1$8PdvdwlZ$NfvLlnxRnNpf9GkAH4ajU1:0:0:root:/root:/bin/bash
nobody::65534:65534:nobody:/var:/bin/false
daemon::65534:65534:daemon:/var:/bin/false

Now time take reboot and apply all new setting:

  • enable ssh access
  • disable telnet access
  • activated your define LAN setting

root@OpenWrt:~# reboot

Now we have remote ssh access with login “root” and password “123” and working LAN setting:
root@Metarouter:~# ping google.com -c 3
PING google.com (74.125.127.100): 56 data bytes
64 bytes from 74.125.127.100: seq=0 ttl=239 time=191.389 ms
64 bytes from 74.125.127.100: seq=1 ttl=239 time=191.942 ms
64 bytes from 74.125.127.100: seq=2 ttl=239 time=195.998 ms

— google.com ping statistics —
3 packets transmitted, 3 packets received, 0% packet loss
round-trip min/avg/max = 191.389/193.109/195.998 ms

Basic setting – packages system:

Now you can install manual any packages:
root@Metarouter:~# opkg install http://openwrt.pantele.com.ua/trunk/metarouter/packages/screen_4.0.3-1_mips.ipk
Downloading http://openwrt.pantele.com.ua/trunk/metarouter/packages/screen_4.0.3-1_mips.ipk

But for resolve many dependences recommend setup correct repo:

  1. add to /etc/opkg.conf
    root@Metarouter:~#echo “src/gz metarouter http://openwrt.pantele.com.ua/trunk/metarouter/packages” >> /etc/opkg.conf
  2. comment not working repo in file /etc/opkg.conf:
    #src/gz snapshots http://downloads.openwrt.org/snapshots/trunk/metarouter/packages

after it look your /etc/opkg.conf:
root@Metarouter:~# cat /etc/opkg.conf
#src/gz snapshots http://downloads.openwrt.org/snapshots/trunk/metarouter/packages
dest root /
dest ram /tmp
lists_dir ext /var/opkg-lists
option overlay_root /jffs
src/gz metarouter http://openwrt.pantele.com.ua/trunk/metarouter/packages

  1. update packages list first:
    root@Metarouter:~# opkg update
    Downloading http://openwrt.pantele.com.ua/trunk/metarouter/packages/Packages.gz

  2. look available packages for install:
    root@Metarouter:~# opkg list
    apache - 2.2.9-2 - The Apache Web Server is a powerful and flexible HTTP/1.1 compliant
    apache-icons - 2.2.9-2 - The Apache Web Server is a powerful and flexible HTTP/1.1 compliant

Good luck.

Update:
15.06.2009 – rebuild to latest trunk r16453, ntpclient now in default image, add more packages.
24.06.2009 - rebuild to latest trunk r16549 and tree of packages too.
02.09.2009 - rebuild to latest trunk r17456 and tree of packages too.

I tried downloading your image at http://openwrt.pantele.com.ua/trunk/metarouter/openwrt-metarouter-rootfs.tgz but when I copy it to my RB433UAH and import it in MetaROUTER, I immediately get an error saying “Couldn’t continue - import failed: could not extract: archive is too short (6)”

Any idea why this is happening? fix?
