Parameter

log

TypeText string
Value

If this parameter is set to some valid file name or a directory where the log files for each individual session will be stored CHARON VM logs Recv and Xmit packets at the emulated port layer.

If an existing directory is specified, CHARON VM automatically enables creation of individual log files, one for each session using the same scheme as used for the generation of the rotating log files. If the "log" parameter is omitted, CHARON VM does not create log.

In certain situations enabling this parameter may help to detect loss of packets.

Example:

set pp_1 log="pp_1.log"


set pp_1 log="C:\Charon\Logs"


Note

Only existing directory can be used as a value of the "log" parameter.

log_flush_period

Parameterlog_flush_period
TypeNumeric
Value
  • <period-in-seconds>

Defines a period of flushing log to disk.

Default period is 60 seconds (it means that every minute log file is flushed to disk)

Examples:

set pp_1 log_flush_period=30

legacy_mode

Parameterlegacy_mode
TypeBoolean
Value

If this parameter is set to "true" CHARON-VAX tries to use very first implementation of "packet_port" having certain restrictions such as inability to automatically change MAC address on given interface etc.

This setting may be needed if CHARON-VAX runs in VMware environment for example and you do not want to allow promiscuous mode.

In other situations please do not change its default value ("false").

Example:

set pp_1 legacy_mode=true


Info

This parameter is required only if you do not want to allow promiscuous traffic for the VMware adapter/port. In this mode, CHARON-VAX uses legacy MAC address change logic, so use of this option is not desirable.

Thus for ESXi networking configuration:

  1. Create the port;
  2. Enable the promiscuous traffic;
  3. Do not use legacy_mode option in Charon's configuration file
