<em>
A common theme used by the comedy crew Monty Python was to emphasize
and exaggerate ridiculousnesses that their target had imposed upon
themselves. Few things could be considered as humorous as making a
redundancy protocol... redundant; e.g. being forced to replace it by
Cisco lawyers and IETF policy.
<p>
We've been working a few years now on our packet filtering software
<a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=pf&sektion=4">pf(4)</a>
and it became time to add failover. We want to be able to set up pf
firewalls side by side, and exchange the stateful information between
them, so that in case of failure another could take over 'keep state'
sessions. Our
<a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=pfsync&sektion=4">pfsync(4)</a>
protocol solves this problem. However, on both sides of the firewall,
it is also necessary to have all the regular hosts not see a
network failure. The only reliable way to do this is for both
firewall machines to have and use the same IP and MAC addresses. But
the only real way to do that is to use multicast protocols.
<p>
The IETF community proposed work in this direction in the late
90's, however in 1997 Cisco informed them that they believed some of
Cisco's patents covered the proposed IETF VRRP (Virtual Router
Redundancy Protocol); on
<a href="http://www.ietf.org/ietf/IPR/VRRP-CISCO">
March 20, 1998 they went further and specifically named their HSRP
"Hot Standby Router Protocol" patent</a>. Reputedly, they were upset
that IETF had not simply adopted the flawed HSRP protocol as the
standard solution for this problem. Despite this legal pressure, the
IETF community forged ahead and published VRRP as a standard even
though there was a patent in the space. Why?
<a href="http://www.cs-ipv6.lancs.ac.uk/ipv6/documents/standards/general-comms/ietf/vrrp/vrrp-minutes-97dec.txt">
There was much deliberation</a>
at all levels of the IETF, and unfortunately for all of us the
politicians within eventually decided to allow patented technology in
standards -- as long as the patented technology is licensed under RAND
(Reasonable And Non Discriminatory) terms. As free software
programmers, we therefore find ourselves in the position that these
RAND standards must not be implemented by us, and we must deviate from
the standard. We find all this rather Unreasonable and Discriminatory
and we *will* design competing protocols. Some standards organization,
eh?
<p>
Due to some HSRP flaws fixed by VRRP and for compatibility with the
(HSRP-licensed) VRRP implementations of their competitors, Cisco in
recent times has largely abandoned HSRP and now relies on VRRP instead
-- a protocol designed for and by the community, but for which they
claim patent rights.
<p>
On August 7 2002, after many communications, Robert Barr (Cisco's
lawyer) firmly informed the OpenBSD community that Cisco would defend
its patents for VRRP implementations -- meaning basically that it was
impossible for a free software group to produce a truly free
implementation of the IETF standard protocol. Perhaps this is because
Cisco and Alcatel are currently engaged in a pair of patent lawsuits; a
small piece of which is Cisco attempting to use the HSRP patent
against Alcatel for their use of VRRP. Some IETF working group
members took note of our complaints,
<a href="http://lists.microshaft.org/pipermail/dmca_discuss/2003-April/004702.html">
however an attempt in April 2003 to have the IETF abandon the use of
patented technology failed to "reach consensus" in the IETF</a>.
<p>
A few years ago, the W3C, who designs our web protocols, tried to move
to a RAND policy as well (primarily because of pressure from Microsoft
and Apple), but the community outrage was so overpowering that they
backed down. Some standards groups use this policy, while others
avoid it -- the one differentiation being the amount of corporate
participation. In the IETF, the pro-RAND agents work for AT&T,
Alcatel, IBM, Cisco, Microsoft, and other large companies. Since IETF
is an open forum, they can blend in as the populace, and vote just
like all others, except against the community.
<p>
Translation: In failing to "reach consensus", the companies who
benefit from RAND won, and the community lost again.
<p>
Left with little choice, we proceeded to reinvent the wheel or, more
correctly, abandon the wheel entirely and go for a "hovercraft". We
designed CARP (Common Address Redundancy Protocol) to solve the same
problem that these other protocols are designed for, but without the
same technological basis as HSRP and VRRP. We read the patent
document carefully and ensured that CARP was fundamentally different.
We also avoided many of the flaws in HSRP and VRRP (such as an inherent
lack of security). And since we are OpenBSD developers, we designed
it to use cryptography.
<p>
The combination of
<a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=pf&sektion=4">pf(4)</a>,
<a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=pfsync&sektion=4">pfsync(4)</a>, and
<a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=carp&sektion=4">carp(4)</a>
has permitted us to build highly redundant firewalls. To date, we
have built a few networks that include as many as 4 firewalls, all
running random reboot cycles. As long as one firewall is alive in a
group, traffic through them moves smoothly and correctly for all of
our packet filter functionality. Cisco's low end products are unable
to do this reliably, and if they have high end products which can do
this, you most certainly cannot afford them.
<p>
As a final note of course, when we petitioned IANA, the IETF body
regulating "official" internet protocol numbers, to give us numbers
for CARP and pfsync our request was denied. Apparently we had failed
to go through an official standards organization. Consequently we
were forced to choose a protocol number which would not conflict with
anything else of value, and decided to place CARP at IP protocol 112.
We also placed pfsync at an open and unused number. We informed IANA of
these decisions, but they declined to reply.
<p>
This ridiculous situation then inspired one of our developers to create
this parody of the well-known Monty Python skit and song.

<font color="#b00000">Customer:</font>
Hello, I would like to buy a CARP license please.
<br>
<font color="#b00000">Licenser:</font>
A what?
<br>
<font color="#b00000">Customer:</font>
A license for my network redundancy protocol, CARP.
<br>
<font color="#b00000">Licenser:</font>
Well, it's free isn't it?
<br>
<font color="#b00000">Customer:</font>
Exactly, the protocol's name is CARP. CARP the redundancy protocol.
<br>
<font color="#b00000">Licenser:</font>
What?
<br>
<font color="#b00000">Customer:</font>
He is an.... redundancy protocol.
<br>
<font color="#b00000">Licenser:</font>
CARP is a free redundancy protocol!
<br>
<font color="#b00000">Customer:</font>
Yes, I chose it out of three, I didn't like the others,
they were all too... encumbered. And now I must license it!
<br>
<font color="#b00000">Licenser:</font>
You must be a looney.
<br>
<font color="#b00000">Customer:</font>
I am not a looney! Why should I be tied with the epithet looney merely
because I wish to protect my redundancy protocol? I've heard tell
that Network Associates has a pet algorithm called RSA used in IETF
standards, and you wouldn't call them a looney; Geoworks has a claim
on WAP, after what their lawyers do to you if you try to implement it.
Cisco has two redundant patents, both encumbered, and Cadtrack has a
patent on cursor movement! So, if you're calling the large American
companies that fork out millions of dollars for the use of XOR a
bunch of looneys, I shall have to ask you to step outside!
<br>
<font color="#b00000">Licenser:</font>
Alright, alright, alright. A license.
<br>
<font color="#b00000">Customer:</font>
Yes.
<br>
<font color="#b00000">Licenser:</font>
For a free redundancy protocol?
<br>
<font color="#b00000">Customer:</font>
Yes.
<br>
<font color="#b00000">Licenser:</font>
You are a looney.
<br>
<font color="#b00000">Customer:</font>
Look, it allows for bleeding redundancy doesn't it? Cisco's got a
patent for the HSRP, and I've got to get a license for me router
VRRP.
<br>
<font color="#b00000">Licenser:</font>
You don't need a license for your VRRP.
<br>
<font color="#b00000">Customer:</font>
I bleeding well do and I got one. It can't be called VRRP without it.
<br>
<font color="#b00000">Licenser:</font>
There's no such thing as a bloody VRRP license.
<br>
<font color="#b00000">Customer:</font>
Yes there is!
<br>
<font color="#b00000">Licenser:</font>
Isn't!
<br>
<font color="#b00000">Customer:</font>
Is!
<br>
<font color="#b00000">Licenser:</font>
Isn't!
<br>
<font color="#b00000">Customer:</font>
I bleeding got one, look! What's that then?
<br>
<font color="#b00000">Licenser:</font>
This is a Cisco HSRP patent document with the word "Cisco" crossed
out and the word "IETF" written in in crayon.
<br>
<font color="#b00000">Customer:</font>
The man didn't have the right form.
<br>
<font color="#b00000">Licenser:</font>
What man?
<br>
<font color="#b00000">Customer:</font>
Robert Barr, the man from the redundancy detector van.
<br>
<font color="#b00000">Licenser:</font>
The looney detector van, you mean.
<br>
<font color="#b00000">Customer:</font>
Look, it's people like you what cause unrest.
<br>
<font color="#b00000">Licenser:</font>
What redundancy detector van?
<br>
<font color="#b00000">Customer:</font>
The redundancy detector van from the Monopoly of Cizzz-coeee.
<br>
<font color="#b00000">Licenser:</font>
Cizzz-coeee?
<br>
<font color="#b00000">Customer:</font>
It was spelt like that on the van. I'm very observant! I never seen
so many bleeding aerials. The man said that their equipment could
pinpoint a failover configuration at 400 yards! And my Cisco router,
being such a flappy bat, was a piece of cake.
<br>
<font color="#b00000">Licenser:</font>
How much did you pay for this?
<br>
<font color="#b00000">Customer:</font>
Sixty quid, and twenty grand for the PIX.
<br>
<font color="#b00000">Licenser:</font>
What PIX?
<br>
<font color="#b00000">Customer:</font>
The PIX I'm replacing!
<br>
<font color="#b00000">Licenser:</font>
So you're replacing your PIX with free software, and yet you want to
license it?
<br>
<font color="#b00000">Customer:</font>
There's nothing so odd about that. I'm sure they patented this
protocol too. After all, the IETF had a hand in it!
<br>
<font color="#b00000">Licenser:</font>
No they didn't!
<br>
<font color="#b00000">Customer:</font>
Did!
<br>
<font color="#b00000">Licenser:</font>
Didn't!
<br>
<font color="#b00000">Customer:</font>
Did, did, did and did!
<br>
<font color="#b00000">Licenser:</font>
Oh, all right.
<br>
<font color="#b00000">Customer:</font>
Spoken like a gentleman, sir. Now, are you going to give me a CARP
license?
<br>
<font color="#b00000">Licenser:</font>
I promise you that there is no such thing. You don't need one.
<br>
<font color="#b00000">Customer:</font>
In that case, give me a Firewall License.
<br>
<font color="#b00000">Licenser:</font>
A license?
<br>
<font color="#b00000">Customer:</font>
Yes.
<br>
<font color="#b00000">Licenser:</font>
For your firewall?
<br>
<font color="#b00000">Customer:</font>
No.
<br>
<font color="#b00000">Licenser:</font>
No?
<br>
<font color="#b00000">Customer:</font>
No, half my firewall. It had an accident.
<br>
<font color="#b00000">Licenser:</font>
You're off your chump.
<br>
<font color="#b00000">Customer:</font>
Look, if you intend by that utilization of an obscure colloquialism
to imply that my sanity is not up to scratch, or indeed to deny the
semi-existence of my little half firewall, I shall have to ask you to
listen to this! Take it away CARP the orchestra leader!

Join Puffy Hood and his Funny Fish as they take on
the Sheriff (an unelected leader) and other evil
forces of the draconian government!
<p>
<br>
As we did for the 3.3 release, we have once again tried
making release artwork and music which are allegorical
of recent happenings.
<p>
Two years ago we became involved with the University
of Pennsylvania and DARPA, who were funding us to do
security research and development .. on things that
we were already intending to do. We provided ideas,
wrote papers, and deployed cutting-edge technology;
DARPA provided finances and reaped a share of the
credit, and the University of Pennsylvania acted as
a middle-man. We accepted funding based on the
promise that our freedom to operate as we wished
was unaffected. To us, freedom is more important
than funding -- heck, we were dealing with the evil
forces of government, and needed to be careful.
<p>
A few months prior to this release, DARPA suddenly
and without warning decided to withdraw that funding;
they also aggressively backed out of contractual
obligations. Many articles in the <a href=press.html>press</a> followed regarding
this sudden manuevre. Apparently this hoopla happened
because an OpenBSD-related article in the Canadian
newspaper The Globe & Mail had quoted Theo de Raadt
making anti-war statements regarding Iraq and the
theft of oil.
<p>
The only answer given (to major media reporters) by a
DARPA spokesperson (Jan Walker) was this:
<p>
"As a result of the DARPA review of the
project, and due to world events and the evolving
threat posed by increasingly capable nation-states,
the Government on April 21 advised the University
to suspend work on the "security fest" portion of
the project."
<p>
That almost toes the line of calling us terrorists!
We had lost financial support, but the release of the
statement above suddenly made us very happy to be free
of any perceived obligation to such crazy people.
<p>
Since the termination came near natural contract
termination (about 4 months remained), less damage
than expected was sustained by the project. Sponsors
stepped forward and helped us make up the missing funds
we needed to run our "Hackathon", and the event
proceeded as planned. We even had t-shirts made with
"Workstations of Mass Development" artwork for those
developers who attended (sorry, they are not for sale).
<p>
We could not make stories like this up. So instead,
we are making up an allegory about it, using the tale
of Robin Hood.

Sir Puffy of Ramsay was a wandrin'<br>
Through forests of seaweed all alone<br>
He had found the crusades<br>
were an endless charade<br>
So for now he called Nothing Hack home<br>
<br>
<br>
One day he met Little Bob of Beckley<br>
Beat him fair on a log-in by staff<br>
Clever chums they did find<br>
other fish of their kind<br>
Thwarting evil with humppa and math<br>
<br>
<br>
Now trouble was a brewin' when the Good King was away<br>
The Sheriff came a callin' for the poor to pay<br>
With CD's and their freedom<br>
for to share online<br>
And burning down the village cause he was a slime<br>
<br>
<br>
So Puffy and his buddies took the booty from the rich<br>
and turned it into a system to protect poor fish<br>
Sent out by Hook or a Wim<br>
to the teaming schools<br>
Town cryers were on fire cause the crypto ruled!<br>
<br>
<br>
<em>Chorus:</em><br>
They called it "BSD"!<br>
And "Open" because it's always free<br>
So raise up your glass and<br>
three cheers to the Funny<br>
Fish for never running<br>
and making something good!<br>
And here's to Puffy Hood!<br>
<br>
<br>
Aaaw! Word to the sea y'all<br>
The Hood's a bad ball<br>
Ya underneath he's a heathen and a traitor<br>
He can take from you all and say "later!"<br>
Think he's a hero?<br>
Naw he ain't lovin' ya<br>
He gettin' richer than Bill Gates and Dubya<br>
Read the Wanted poster<br>
of Sheriff Plac-o-derm fool<br>
We gettin' back the booty<br>
or we take away your worms too<br>
<br>
<br>
Yo! Word to the classes<br>
Put on your glasses<br>
I guess the Sheriff is King till this passes<br>
Times are a changin' and movin' so fast<br>
He says "Give me your freedom,<br>
I'll grasp it and pass it to brass<br>
who can hash it for weapons of massive distraction.<br>
And hand me the bastards that brashly amassed from the cash<br>
happy faction of oily and gassy co-action".<br>
No! Don't hand em dick, grab a stick, keep attacking for freedom<br>
and hack till the King cometh back and leave em'<br>
<br>
<br>
Then trouble was a rollin' with an army on the run<br>
The Sheriff came a callin' for the spikey one<br>
And took back all the booty<br>
Puff intended for the poor<br>
The Arch-a-thon went on despite the mighty roar<br>
<br>
<br>
Puff snuck into the castle, and found the treasure hill<br>
And also found Maid Marlin held against her will<br>
He loaded all the loot<br>
to give it back and big surprise<br>
He took the maiden too, 'cause she was easy on the eyes<br>

Spilling the blood of men<br>
Then from the ocean came<br>
Puff the Barbarian<br>
<br>
<br>
Born in a tiny bowl Puff was a pet<br>
Sold into slav-er-y by the man<br>
Eating the weeds till he was strong enough<br>
Breaking his bonds like nobody can<br>
<p>
Down the sewer pipes of Hell<br>
A thousand kitties then did bleed<br>
Constraints were slain as well<br>
Hacked his way out to the C<br>
<p>
And there he found<br>
His destiny<br>
Hammer of the Ocean God<br>
"Xor taking care of me"<br>
<p>
Then in a dream Xor requested he<br>
"Go to the Sun King, get what I yearn<br>
Kernighan saw it, prophet of the C<br>
Knowledge - so they may never return"<br>
<p>
At the tower Puff appealed<br>
For the wisdom of the One<br>
Denied, his mind did reel<br>
Puff was getting tired of Sun<br>
<p>
Broke down the guard<br>
Cause math is hard<br>
Saw McNealy on his throne<br>
All alone and only bones<br>
<p>
Come the Sun King blade ablur<br>
Hammer down eclipse the Sun<br>
And Puff, the land secured<br>
The new King Barbarian!<br>

Goldflipper<br>
With golden skin<br>
and flippers as sharp as a knife<br>
He's the machine<br>
Designed to dismember your life<br>
<p>
And the fish<br>
Protecting us all from the cat<br>
And the cat<br>
Infecting the wo-orld for a laugh<br>

Cyborg on a mission<br>
To do some Puff fishin'<br>
The doctor wants fugu tonight!<br>
<p>
(short instrumental intro)
<p>
You'll need some machismo to<br>
catch the spikey one<br>
He's got guts and gizmos to<br>
make the system run<br>
<p>
But Flip's here for fun<br>
and without a gun<br>
He'll dice you with his Golden fin<br>
<p>
She's all over Puff cause he's<br>
such a sexy catch<br>
Is she spying on him or<br>
just a seafood match?<br>
<p>
Oh double seven<br>
Send me to Heaven<br>
Cause for Mr. Po-o-o-ond<br>
<p>
The women are fond<br>
She knows what to do<br>
She'll turn Gold to goo<br>
<p>
Goldflipper is gone<br>
Gold flipper's goooooooooooooone<br>
