Stephen,

Sorry for a late reply, I've been on vacation. We haven't yet tried running HIPL on PL, but Teemu Koponen wrote a UML patch that should allow it. It is was used to run an OCALA proxy on PL. He can provide the patch to you. We would be very interested to hear if it will work for you.

Please find the description and the patch at: http://www.iki.fi/~tkoponen/planetlab/


A few words of caution:

1) PL VNET does not allow you run HIP signaling protocol or IPsec ESP (directly) on top of IP. Unfortunately, this is the only mode of operation HIPL implements. To circumvent this, deploy an UDP/TCP overlay and run HIP/IPsec on it.

2) The patch and daemon are not "production" quality.

HTH,
Teemu
