socat: tunnel IP through TTY

问题


Is it possible to get an bidirectional IP-tunnel over ttyS0-like serial (modem) devices with the socat utility? I tried to use TUN option but still can't get the result.

Any suggestions are welcome :)

Update:

PC1:

socat /dev/ttyUSB0,raw,echo=0,b57600,clocal TUN:192.168.1.1/24,up

PC2:

socat /dev/ttyUSB0,raw,echo=0,b57600,clocal TUN:192.168.1.2/24,up

After that, I have seen tun0 interfaces with proper addresses on both ends but I can't ping one from other. Instead of that, when I send data with ping -c 1 192.168.1.1 remote socat process exits and it's tun0 device destroyed. Any suggestions?..

Update2:

There is a framing problem when we try to make TCP/IP tunnel over serial with only socat. Gerhard Rieger, the socat's developer, says me that:

I am afraid that you are right. tun over datagram socket works, and - by luck - also over pipes. But over the serial line the packet boundaries may vanish and this is fatal when sending the data out on the tun interface.

I cannot offer a socat based solution now, sorry. However, I will try to integrate some framing in a later version 2 release.

Ha-ha, I works but there needs to be some magic :)

So, configure the 1st peer with:

PC1:
1) slattach -L -s 57600 -p slip /dev/ttyUSB0 &
2) ifconfig sl0 up
3) socat TUN:192.168.1.1/24,up INTERFACE:sl0 &

... and something like that on the 2nd peer:

PC2:
1) slattach -L -s 57600 -p slip /dev/ttyUSB0 &
2) ifconfig sl0 up
3) socat TUN:192.168.1.2/24,up INTERFACE:sl0 &

And now, you can successfully ping one PC from another:

PC1:
1) ping -c 5 192.168.1.2

PING 192.168.1.2 (192.168.1.2) 56(84) bytes of data.
64 bytes from 192.168.1.2: icmp_req=1 ttl=64 time=348 ms
64 bytes from 192.168.1.2: icmp_req=2 ttl=64 time=551 ms
64 bytes from 192.168.1.2: icmp_req=3 ttl=64 time=557 ms
64 bytes from 192.168.1.2: icmp_req=4 ttl=64 time=549 ms
64 bytes from 192.168.1.2: icmp_req=5 ttl=64 time=348 ms

--- 192.168.1.2 ping statistics ---
5 packets transmitted, 5 received, 0% packet loss, time 4003ms
rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 348.116/471.143/557.128/100.177 ms

It's a little bit tricky because of slattach use but in fact any other solution must use something like slip to organize framing over the serial line. For example, PPP use HDLC-like frames.




回答2:


based on what I have tried, you don't need socat to establish a tunnel. you can just do the following:

PC1:
 1, sudo slattach -s 19200 -p slip -dL /dev/ttyUSB0
 2, sudo ifconfig sl0 10.0.0.1/24 up
 3, sudo route add default gw 10.0.0.254 sl0

PC2:
 1, sudo slattach -s 19200 -p slip -dL /dev/ttyUSB0
 2, sudo ifconfig sl0 10.0.0.2/24 up
 3, sudo route add default gw 10.0.0.254 sl0

After the setup, I can ping PC2 from PC1, and vice versa.

There is another pre-condition: your Linux kernel must have slip module loaded.
