NAME

DESCRIPTION

This command is deprecated, and it’s now implemented as a wrapper for jool session proxy. See jool(8).

SYNTAX

joold [NETSOCKET] [MODSOCKET] [PORT]

OPTIONS

NETSOCKET

Path to JSON file containing the network socket’s configuration.
Defaults to "netsocket.json".

MODSOCKET

Path to JSON file containing the Netlink socket’s configuration.
Defaults to "modsocket.json".

PORT

If present, starts an UDP server bound to port PORT, where the daemon serves stat counters.

NETWORK SOCKET CONFIGURATION

The file is a JSON-formatted collection of keyvalues.
multicast address=<IPv6-or-IPv4-address>

IP Address the SS traffic will be sent to and listened from.
Mandatory; has no default.

multicast port=<port-or-service-name>

TCP port where the SS traffic will be sent to and listened from.
Mandatory; has no default.

in interface=<String>

If multicast address is IPv4, this should be one addresses from the interface where the SS traffic is expected to be received. If multicast address is IPv6, this should be the name of the interface (eg. "eth0").
Optional. Defaults to be automatically assigned by the kernel.
It is strongly recommended that you define this value to ensure the SS traffic does not leak through other interfaces.

out interface=<String>

If multicast address is IPv4, this should be one addresses from the interface where the multicast traffic is expected to be sent. If multicast address is IPv6, this should be the name of the interface (eg. "eth0").
Optional. Defaults to be automatically assigned by the kernel.
It is strongly recommended that you define this value to ensure the SS traffic does not leak through other interfaces.

ttl=<INT>

Time-to-live of packets sent out by this socket.

NETLINK SOCKET CONFIGURATION

The file is a JSON-formatted collection of keyvalues.
instance=<String>

Name of the instance the daemon is supposed to synchronize. It’s the one you designate during jool instance add.
The instance is expected to exist within the same network namespace the daemon is running in.
As usual, it defaults to "default".

EXAMPLES

IPv6 version:

$ # All Jool instances should have the basic configuration.
$ jool --file same-config-as-everyone-else.json
$
$ # Configure the SS interface
$ ip addr add 2001:db8:ff08::4/96 dev eth0
$ ip link set eth0 up
$
$ # joold
$ cat ipv6-netsocket.json
{
"multicast address": "ff08::db8:64:64",
"multicast port": "6464",
"in interface": "eth0",
"out interface": "eth0",
"ttl": 3
}
$
$ cat modsocket.json
{ "instance": "default" }
$
$ joold ipv6-netsocket.json modsocket.json 45678 &

IPv4 version:

$ # All Jool instances should have the basic configuration.
$ jool --file same-config-as-everyone-else.json
$
$ # Configure the SS interface
$ ip addr add 192.0.2.1/24 dev eth0
$ ip link set eth0 up
$
$ # joold
$ cat ipv4-netsocket.json
{
"multicast address": "233.252.0.64",
"multicast port": "6464",
"in interface": "192.0.2.1",
"out interface": "192.0.2.1",
"ttl": 3
}
$
$ cat modsocket.json
{ "instance": "default" }
$
$ joold ipv4-netsocket.json modsocket.json 45678 &
