1 | Building FRR on Ubuntu 14.04LTS from Git Source |
2 | =============================================== | |
3 | ||
4 | - MPLS is not supported on `Ubuntu 14.04` with default kernel. MPLS requires | |
5 | Linux Kernel 4.5 or higher (LDP can be built, but may have limited use | |
6 | without MPLS) | |
7 | For an updated Ubuntu Kernel, see http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/ | |
8 | ||
9 | Install required packages | |

26 | sudo groupadd -g 92 frr |
27 | sudo groupadd -r -g 85 frrvty | |
28 | sudo adduser --system --ingroup frr --groups frrvty --home /var/run/frr/ \ | |
278fb111 MW |
29 | --gecos "FRR suite" --shell /sbin/nologin frr |

81 | ||
eb651bbc MW |
82 | Edit `/etc/sysctl.conf` and uncomment the following values (ignore the |
83 | other settings) | |
278fb111 | 84 | |
eb651bbc MW |
85 | # Uncomment the next line to enable packet forwarding for IPv4 |
86 | net.ipv4.ip_forward=1 | |
278fb111 | 87 | |
eb651bbc MW |
88 | # Uncomment the next line to enable packet forwarding for IPv6 |
89 | # Enabling this option disables Stateless Address Autoconfiguration | |
90 | # based on Router Advertisements for this host | |
91 | net.ipv6.conf.all.forwarding=1 | |
