Displaying Mobility Agent Status
You can use the mipagentstat command to display a foreign agent's visitors list and a home agent's binding table. "Mobile IP Mobility Agent Status" provides a conceptual description of the mipagentstat command. You can also review the mipagentstat(1M) man page.
How to Display Mobility Agent Status
Become superuser on the system where you are enabling Mobile IP.
On a command line, type the following command.
# mipagentstat <option>
You can use the following options:
-f
Shows the list of active mobile nodes in the foreign agent's visitor list
-h
Shows the list of active mobile nodes in the home agent's binding table
-p
Shows the list of security associations with an agent's mobility agent peers
For example, to show the visitor list for all mobile nodes that are registered with the foreign agent, use the following command.
# mipagentstat -f |
This command causes the following results to be displayed (for example).
Mobile Node Home Agent Time (s) Time (s) Flags
Granted Remaining
--------------- -------------- ------------ --------- -----
foobar.xyz.com ha1.xyz.com 600 125 .....T.
10.1.5.23 10.1.5.1 1000 10 .....T.
|
To show the foreign agent security associations, use the following command.
# mipagentstat -p |
This command causes the following results to be displayed (for example).
Foreign ..... Security Association(s)..... Agent Requests Replies FTunnel RTunnel ---------------------- -------- -------- -------- -------- forn-agent.eng.sun.com AH AH ESP ESP |
To show the home agent security associations, use the following command.
# mipagentstat -fp |
This command causes the following results to be displayed (for example).
Home ..... Security Association(s) ..... Agent Requests Replies FTunnel RTunnel ---------------------- -------- -------- -------- -------- home-agent.eng.sun.com AH AH ESP ESP ha1.xyz.com AH,ESP AH AH,ESP AH,ESP |
Displaying Mobility Routes on a Foreign Agent
You can use the netstat command to display additional information about source-specific routes that are created by forward and reverse tunnels. See the netstat(1M) man page for more information about this command.
How to Display Mobility Routes on a Foreign Agent
Become superuser on the system where you are enabling Mobile IP.
On a command line, type the following command.
# netstat -rn
The following example shows the routes for a foreign agent that uses a reverse tunnel.
Routing Table: IPv4 Source-Specific
Destination In If Source Gateway Flags Use Out If
-------------- ------- ------------ --------- ----- ---- -------
10.6.32.11 ip.tun1 -- 10.6.32.97 UH 0 hme1
-- hme1 10.6.32.11 -- U 0 ip.tun1
|
The first line indicates that the destination IP address 10.6.32.11 and the incoming interface ip.tun1 select hme1 as the interface that forwards the packets. The next line indicates that any packet originating from interface hme1 and source address 10.6.32.11 must be forwarded to ip.tun1. This is an example of a reverse-tunnel route.
