Hello,
I have a few questions about the ibr-dtn commands.I have only recently started experimenting with ibr-dtn on my pc and router. I have familiarized myself with the dtn2 daemon and I was wondering if the same command formats apply to both daemons, since ibr-dtn is based on dtn2.More specifically I am currently insterested in the basic commands dtnping,dtnsend and dtnrecv. Will the ibr-dtn daemon accept the dtn2 format of these commands?
Thank you, Dimitris.
Hi Dimitrios.
the command line parameters will definitely not compatible, except formaybe really simplicistic stuff like "dtnping dtn://test1.dtn/echo" (ibr-dtn is not based on dtn2). However, most tools have a small and fairly understandable (at least that is what we think…) usage information, if you start them with --help, e.g.
# dtnping --help -- dtnping (IBR-DTN) -- Syntax: dtnping [options] <dst> <dst> set the destination eid (e.g. dtn://node/echo) * optional parameters * -h|--help display this text --src <name> set the source application name (e.g. echo-client) --nowait do not wait for a reply --abortfail Abort after first packetloss --size the size of the payload --count X send X echo in a row --delay X delay (seconds) after a successful response --lifetime <seconds> set the lifetime of outgoing bundles; default: 30 --encrypt request encryption on the bundle layer --sign request signature on the bundle layer -U <socket> use UNIX domain sockets
(Beginners pittfall: here you already see a small, but important difference: IBR-DTNs default endpoint for the ping applciation is /echo , while it would be /ping for DTN2 I think, i.e. if you use ibr-dtn to ping another node it should be
dtnping dtn://node.dtn/echo if "node.dtn" is running IBR-DTN, while it would be
dtnping dtn://node.dtn/ping if "node.dtn" is running DTN2
if there is anything unclear regarding the options, just drop a note to the list.
