Hi,

I have recently updated one of my systems from CentOs 6.4 to CentOS 6.5.
This systems is used as a RIPv2 routing server with quagga which is the termination point of some GRE tunnels.

While running CentOS 6.4 I see the multicast packages arriving at the eth0 and the GRE tunnel interface.
While running under CentOs 6.5 I can see the multicast packages arriving at the eth0 but not on the GRE tunnel interface.
I am receiving and sending routes at the eth0 interface, but I am only able to send updates through the GRE tunnel not receive them.
All interfaces are multicast enabled:

While doing a tcpdump (tcpdump –ni eth0 proto 47 | grep 224.0.0.9), I can see the multicast packages arriving inside the GRE tunnel (see last package):

10:40:34.366661 IP 10.139.10.2 > 192.168.252.26: GREv0, length 536: IP 192.168.250.25.router > 224.0.0.9.router: RIPv2, Response, length: 504
10:40:34.366680 IP 10.139.10.2 > 192.168.252.26: GREv0, length 536: IP 192.168.250.25.router > 224.0.0.9.router: RIPv2, Response, length: 504
10:40:34.366702 IP 10.139.10.2 > 192.168.252.26: GREv0, length 536: IP 192.168.250.25.router > 224.0.0.9.router: RIPv2, Response, length: 504
10:40:34.366721 IP 10.139.10.2 > 192.168.252.26: GREv0, length 356: IP 192.168.250.25.router > 224.0.0.9.router: RIPv2, Response, length: 324
10:40:39.830508 IP 192.168.252.26 > 10.139.10.2: GREv0, length 136: IP 192.168.250.26.router > 224.0.0.9.router: RIPv2, Response, length: 104

While doing the same on the Tunnel interface (tcpdump –ni net2bdp host 224.0.0.9), I do not see the incoming multicast packages any more:

10:42:32.391849 IP 192.168.250.25.router > 224.0.0.9.router: RIPv2, Response, length: 504
10:42:32.391887 IP 192.168.250.25.router > 224.0.0.9.router: RIPv2, Response, length: 504
10:42:32.391945 IP 192.168.250.25.router > 224.0.0.9.router: RIPv2, Response, length: 504
10:42:32.391975 IP 192.168.250.25.router > 224.0.0.9.router: RIPv2, Response, length: 324

I am using quagga 0.99.15 as the RIPv2 daemon. The configuration is as follows:

Zebra.conf:

interface eth0
multicast
ipv6 nd suppress-ra
!
interface net2xxx

ipv6 nd suppress-ra
!

Ripd.conf:

!

!

rip authentication is working as the routes are transmitted to the remote router but not from the remote router to the local server. The RIP or ZEBRA configuration were the same before the update (working) and after the update (no longer working).

Has there be anything changed in multicast handling in combination with GRE tunnels with CentOS 6.5?
Do you need any additional information?
