[hipl-users] UPDATE not taken into account by server

Hi,

One student has subscribed to the hipl-users and hipl-dev mailing
lists but it seems she cannot send mails to the mailing lists. Here
are the questions she is wondering.

Our platform is constituted by a client running Fedora 15 with two
interfaces p5p1 and p5p2 and a server (lighttpd) running Ubuntu
10.04.3 LTS. Client and servers are configured as mentioned in
http://infrahip.hiit.fi/index.php?index=download, with yum and
apt-get.

The client runs on two interfaces p5p1 p5p2 and download a large
50MByte file on p5p1. When p5p1 is down, the Client sends an UPDATE
message from p5p2 to the server. Then the Server sends a UPDATE from
its interface to p5p1. This interface is not up anymore and the
mobility never occurs.

We do not use any Network Manager. The way we put the interface p5p1 down is:
ifconfig p5p1 0.0.0.0
ifconfig p5p1 down

We do not modify the route. The server is still able to reach the
client on p5p2 but keep on using  p5p1 to reach the client. Is there
any specific routing configuration to do?

hipl -k >> file.log does not create a log file. How can I log the
messages from the hipl?

Best regards,

Ghada and Daniel
