gost: getting started
Retries - The number of retries after a failed connection through the proxy chain.gost: code: chain.go
func (c *Chain) DialContext(ctx context.Context, network, address string, opts ...ChainOption) (conn net.Conn, err error) {
..
..
for i := 0; i < retries; i++ {
conn, err = c.dialWithOptions(ctx, network, address, options)
if err == nil {
break
}
}
..Test the ‘retry’ parameter on tunnels with a single or multiple failing chain node.
Observations:
When using default ‘Retries 1’, a single failing node will result in 1st attempt always failing. 2nd attempt works. When ‘Retries’ is set to 2, a single failing node in a chain leg will not fail on 1st attempt.
The script below will create a test environment as follows.
Backend echo server - 127.0.0.200:9000 Backend terminating gost tunnel end point for server.
2 legs - chain nodes - 127.1.0.x and 127.2.0.x Can be considered as site 1 and site 2 networks.
Clients: gost terminating end - port 127.0.0.100:9000 Client test: Using netcat to connect to backend server.
Create folder Run script. Script will create all scripts required to run tests.
Testing:
mkdir /tmp/t
cd /tmp/t
create-gost-tunnel-test-envconsole 1 - start backend server and all chain nodes (both legs)
cd /tmp/t
./start-srv-backend-and-chainsconsole 2 - start client end point
cd /tmp/t
./start-clientconsole 3 - run basic test - all chain nodes are up
cd /tmp/t
./client-testFailing chain node tests
One chain node failing, retry - defaults to 1
cd /tmp/t
./start-client-leg-1-node-1-fail1st attempt always fails, 2nd attempt works
cd /tmp/t
./client-testOne chain node failing, retry set to 2
cd /tmp/t
./start-client-leg-1-node-1-fail-retry-21st attempt always does not fails
cd /tmp/t
./client-testSee other 2 tests for further testing
Other tests could be added
