I have 2 IP addresses on my server.
$curl --interface eth0 ifconfig.co
111.111.111.111
$curl --interface eth0:0 ifconfig.co
222.222.222.222
So via curl I can switch via interfaces so my IP address changes when I visit any url based on eth IP
How can I use same thing via ffmpeg?
For example, if want to access this video via ffmpeg (it uses 111.111.111.111 to access it)
ffmpeg -i 123.com/video.mp4
how can I access same video from my second IP 222.222.222.222 ?
Is there any command like this, perhaps?
ffmpeg --interface eth0:0 -i 123.com/video.mp4
ffmpeg has no such feature. One approach would be to set up a second entry in your /etc/hosts file and access it:
$ cat /etc/hosts
111.111.111.111 123.com
222.222.222.222 456.com
Then access which ever interface you want, using the appropriate DNS entry.
$ ffmpeg -i 123.com/...
$ ffmpeg -i 456.com/...

I am trying to capture the DHCP frames for analysis using the following command in my mac book.
sudo tshark -i en0 -f "port 67 or port 68" -a duration:300 -w /tmp/dump.pcap
I use the following command to get all the fields of all protocols in the packet but it is not printing any value. Is the capture filter option for the DHCP frame is correct? Any help is appreciated?
sudo tshark -T text -r /tmp/dump.pcap -V
Answer
Yes, your commands are OK. Maybe no DHCP packets arrived and therefore not captured. Try to force a DHCP activity by commands in second teminal window of the same device:
sudo dhclient -r
sudo dhclient
Warning: Do not apply these commands if you are connected remotely. First command releases the IP address and your connection will be interrupted without a possibility to put second command and get address back remotely.
Some details concerning data capture
The thsark filters have the same syntax as Wireshark.
Threre exist 2 (or 3) filter types:
capture filter, -f tshark option: It selects which packets will be captured and which not. This is useful e.g. for getting lower capture file size.
display filter, -Y tshark option: It selects which packets will be displayed from all captured ones.
You can combine both types.
Examples:
tshark -i eth0 -n -Y "ip.addr==8.8.8.8"
tshark -i eth0 -n -Y "ip.addr==8.8.8.8" -f "udp port 53"
tshark -i eth0 -n -Y "ip.addr==8.8.8.8 and udp.port==53"
All packets are captured, but only the 8.8.8.8 IP address packets are displayed.
Only the DNS packets are captured, and only the 8.8.8.8 IP address packets from captured are displayed.
All packets are captured, but only the 8.8.8.8 IP address packets having UDP port 53 (i.e. DNS) are displayed. Compare different syntax of the port filtering between the display and the capture filters in line above.
All other options like -a, -b, -w, -s can be applied too.
The tcpdump application is usefull too. It is available in most Linux systems even very small or special. It does not have a display filter option. Only capture filters can be applied. Other options are missing: -a, -b ...
sudo tcpdump -i eth0 -w /tmp/dhcp.pcap "udp port 67 or udp port 68"
I've been looking into LXC containers and I was wondering as to whether or not it is possible to use an LXC container like an ordinary VPS?
What I mean is;
How do I assign an external IP address to an LXC container?
How do I ssh into an LXC container directly?
I'm quite new to LXC containers so please let me know if there are any other differences I should be aware of.
lxc-create -t download -n cn_name
lxc-start -n cn_name -d
lxc-attach -n cn_name
then in container cn_name install openssh server so you can use ssh then reboot it or restart ssh service.
To make any container "services" available to the world configure port forwarding from the host to the container.
For instance if you had a web server in a container, to forward port 80 from the host ip 192.168.1.1 to a container with ip 10.0.3.1 you can use the iptables rule below.
iptables -t nat -I PREROUTING -i eth0 -p TCP -d 191.168.1.1/32 --dport 80 -j DNAT --to-destination 10.0.3.1:80
now the web server on port 80 of the container will be available via port 80 of the host OS.
It sounds like what you want is to bridge the host NIC to the container. In that case, the first thing you need to do is create a bridge. Do this by first ensuring bridge-utils is installed on the system, then open /etc/networking/interfaces for editing and change this:
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet dhcp
to this:
auto br0
iface br0 inet dhcp
bridge-interfaces eth0
bridge-ports eth0
up ifconfig eth0 up
iface eth0 inet manual
If your NIC is not named eth0, you should replace eth0 with whatever your NIC is named (mine is named enp5s0). Once you've made the change, you can start the bridge by issuing the command
sudo ifup br0
Assuming all went well, you should maintain internet access and even your ssh session should stay online during the process. I recommend you have physical access to the host because messing up the above steps could block the host from internet access. You can verify your setup is correct by running ifconfig and checking that br0 has an assigned IP address while eth0 does not.
Once that's all set up, open up /etc/lxc/default.conf and change
lxc.network.link = lxcbr0
to
lxc.network.link = br0
And that's it. Any containers that you launch will automatically bridge to eth0 and will effectively exist on the same LAN as the host. At this point, you can install ssh if it's not already and ssh into the container using its newly assigned IP address.

I have been using wire-shark to analyse the packets of socket programs, Now i want to see the traffic of other hosts traffic, as i found that i need to use monitor mode that is only supported in Linux platform, so i tried but i couldn't capture any packets that is transferred in my network, listing as 0 packets captured.
Scenario:
I'm having a network consisting of 50+ hosts (all are powered by windows Except mine), my IP address is 192.168.1.10, when i initiate a communication between any 192.168.1.xx it showing the captured traffic.
But my requirement is to monitor the traffic of 192.168.1.21 b/w 192.168.1.22 from my host i,e. from 192.168.1.10.
1: is it possible to capture the traffic as i mentioned?
2: If it is possible then is wire-shark is right tool for it (or should i have to use differnt one)?
3: if it is not possible, then why?
Just adapt this a bit with your own filters and ips : (on local host)
ssh -l root <REMOTE HOST> tshark -w - not tcp port 22 | wireshark -k -i -
or using bash :
wireshark -k -i <(ssh -l root <REMOTE HOST> tshark -w - not tcp port 22)
You can use tcpdump instead of tshark if needed :
ssh -l root <REMOTE HOST> tcpdump -U -s0 -w - -i eth0 'port 22' |
wireshark -k -i -
You are connected to a switch which is "switching" traffic. It bases the traffic you see on your mac address. It will NOT send you traffic that is not destined to your mac address. If you want to monitor all the traffic you need to configure your switch to use a "port mirror" and plug your sniffer into that port. There is no software that you can install on your machine that will circumvent the way network switching works.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Port_mirroring
I'm writing a testing tool that requires known traffic to be captured from a NIC (using libpcap), then fed into the application we are trying to test.
What I'm attempting to set-up is a web server (in this case, lighttpd) and a client (curl) running on the same machine, on an isolated test network. A script will drive the entire setup, and the goal is to be able to specify a number of clients as well as a set of files for each client to download from the web server.
My initial approach was to simply use the loopback (lo) interface... run the web server on 127.0.0.1, have the clients fetch their files from http://127.0.0.1, and run my libpcap-based tool on the lo interface. This works ok, apart from the fact that the loopback interface doesn't emulate a real Ethernet interface. The main problem with that is that packets are all inconsistent sizes... 32kbytes and bigger, and somewhat random... it's also not possible to lower the MTU on lo (well, you can, but it has no effect!).
I also tried running it on my real interface (eth0), but since it's an internal web client talking to an internal web server, traffic never leaves the interface, so libpcap never sees it.
So then I turned to tun/tap. I used socat to bind two tun interfaces together with a tcp connection, so in effect, i had:
10.0.1.1/24 <-> tun0 <-socat-> tcp connection <-socat-> tun1 <-> 10.0.2.1/24
This seems like a really neat solution... tun/tap devices emulate real Ethernet devices, so i can run my web server on tun0 (10.0.1.1) and my capture tool on tun0, and bind my clients to tun1 (10.0.2.1)... I can even use tc to apply shaping rules to this traffic and create a virtual WAN inside my linux box... but it just doesn't work...
Here are the socat commands I used:
$ socat -d TCP-LISTEN:11443,reuseaddr TUN:10.0.1.1/24,up &
$ socat TCP:127.0.0.1:11443 TUN:10.0.2.1/24,up &
Which produces 2 tun interfaces (tun0 and tun1), with their respective IP addresses.
If I run ping -I tun1 10.0.1.1, there is no response, but when i tcpdump -n -i tun0, i see the ICMP echo requests making it to the other side, just no sign of the response coming back.
# tcpdump -i tun0 -n
tcpdump: verbose output suppressed, use -v or -vv for full protocol decode
listening on tun0, link-type RAW (Raw IP), capture size 65535 bytes
16:49:16.772718 IP 10.0.2.1 > 10.0.1.1: ICMP echo request, id 4062, seq 5, length 64
<--- insert sound of crickets here (chirp, chirp)
So am I missing something obvious or is this the wrong approach? Is there something else i can try (e.g. 2 physical interfaces, eth0 and eth1???).
The easiest way is just to use 2 machines, but I want all of this self-contained, so it can all be scripted and automated on a single machine, without and other dependencies...
UPDATE:
There is no need for the 2 socats to be connected with a tcp connection, it's possible (and preferable for me) to do this:
socat TUN:10.0.1.1/24,up TUN:10.0.2.1/24,up &
The same problem still exists though...
OK, so I found a solution using Linux network namespaces (netns). There is a helpful article about how to use it here: http://code.google.com/p/coreemu/wiki/Namespaces
This is what I did for my setup....
First, download and install CORE: http://cs.itd.nrl.navy.mil/work/core/index.php
Next, run this script:
#!/bin/sh
core-cleanup.sh > /dev/null 2>&1
ip link set vbridge down > /dev/null 2>&1
brctl delbr vbridge > /dev/null 2>&1
# create a server node namespace container - node 0
vnoded -c /tmp/n0.ctl -l /tmp/n0.log -p /tmp/n0.pid > /dev/null
# create a virtual Ethernet (veth) pair, installing one end into node 0
ip link add name veth0 type veth peer name n0.0
ip link set n0.0 netns `cat /tmp/n0.pid`
vcmd -c /tmp/n0.ctl -- ip link set n0.0 name eth0
vcmd -c /tmp/n0.ctl -- ifconfig eth0 10.0.0.1/24 up
# start web server on node 0
vcmd -I -c /tmp/n0.ctl -- lighttpd -f /etc/lighttpd/lighttpd.conf
# create client node namespace container - node 1
vnoded -c /tmp/n1.ctl -l /tmp/n1.log -p /tmp/n1.pid > /dev/null
# create a virtual Ethernet (veth) pair, installing one end into node 1
ip link add name veth1 type veth peer name n1.0
ip link set n1.0 netns `cat /tmp/n1.pid`
vcmd -c /tmp/n1.ctl -- ip link set n1.0 name eth0
vcmd -c /tmp/n1.ctl -- ifconfig eth0 10.0.0.2/24 up
# bridge together nodes using the other end of each veth pair
brctl addbr vbridge
brctl setfd vbridge 0
brctl addif vbridge veth0
brctl addif vbridge veth1
ip link set veth0 up
ip link set veth1 up
ip link set vbridge up
This basically sets up 2 virtual/isolated/name-spaced networks on your Linux host, in this case, node 0 and node 1. A web server is started on node 0.
All you need to do now is run curl on node 1:
vcmd -c /tmp/n1.ctl -- curl --output /dev/null http://10.0.0.1
And monitor the traffic with tcpdump:
tcpdump -s 1514 -i veth0 -n
This seems to work quite well... still experimenting, but looks like it will solve my problem.
I have 20 ips from my isp. I have them bound to a router box running centos. What commands, and in what order, do I set up so that the other boxes on my lan, based either on their mac addresses or 192 ips can I have them route out my box on specific ips. For example I want mac addy xxx:xxx:xxx0400 to go out 72.049.12.157 and xxx:xxx:xxx:0500 to go out 72.049.12.158.
Use iptables to setup NAT.
iptables -t nat -I POSTROUTING -s 192.168.0.0/24 -j SNAT --to-source 72.049.12.157
iptables -t nat -I POSTROUTING -s 192.168.1.0/24 -j SNAT --to-source 72.049.12.158
This should cause any ips on the 192.168.0.0 subnet to have an 'external' ip of 72.049.12.157 and those on the 192.168.1.0 subnet to have an 'external' ip of 72.049.12.158. For MAC address matching, use -m mac --mac-source MAC-ADDRESS in place of the -s 192.168.0.0/24 argument
Don't forget to activate ip forwarding:
cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
If the above returns a 0 then it won't work, you'll have to enable it. Unfortunately this is distro-specific and I don't know CentOS.
For a quick hack, do this:
echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
What's the router hardware and software version?
Are you trying to do this with a linux box? Stop now and go get a router. It will save you money long-term.
Answering this question with the little information you gave amounts to rewriting a routing Howto here. You could either
read about routing and IP in general (e.g. Linux System Administrator's Guide) or
give us more info on the exact IP addresses you got.
The above answer using NAT is definately not what you intend to use when you have public IP addresses. This solution is not going to scale well.
