[CLOSED]Android usbnet networking setup - Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]

Hello there!
I have android 10 based device and I have troubles with configuring usbnet device automatically.
I've modified kernel config, added `CONFIG_USB_USBNET=y` etc. Now I have usb0 device, and I can assign ip and routing to it, but it seems that there is another layer of networking setup in android: utility named ndc.
I tried next script:
```
ip link set usb0 up
ip addr add 192.168.1.2/24 dev usb0
ndc network create 101
ndc network interface add 101 usb0
ndc network route add 101 usb0 192.168.1.0/24
ndc network default set 101
```
Now I can ping device on the other side of usb0 interface but I'm losing wlan0 connection. Sure I can do next:
```
ndc network interface add 101 wlan0
ndc network route add 101 wlan0 0.0.0.0/0 10.0.0.1
ndc resolver setifdns wlan0 8.8.8.8 8.8.4.4
```
I also tried to modify default ROM:
uncomment in frameworks/base/core/res/res/values/config.xml
```
<string translatable="false" name="config_usb_ethernet_iface_regex">usb\\d</string>

```
But no luck usb0 interface remain unconfigured after boot.
After that I can ping both usb0 peer and wlan0 direct gateway but default route(0.0.0.0/0) not working. Don't understand why...
In general, I have 2 questions:
1. how to automate IP configuration for usb0 network in time of building ROM?
2. how to make usb0 and wlan0 play well together? Ideally without creating new network via ndc etc.
Are there any manuals about network configuration?

[Q] wifi 3g/4g simultaneously

I want to do MPTCP.
I've tried many ways to let them work at the same time.
But I still can't use them.
I use adb shell.
First, I let 3g always on, and turn off the wifi
then,
netcfg wlan0 up
wpa_supplicant -B -Dnl80211 -iwlan0 -c/data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf
but in here, i use 'netcfg' to see the network informantion
I can't get the WiFi's IP address, I only can get 3G IP or WiFi IP
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2197776

I use dhcpcd wlan0

so, how can I get the dual networks IP address?

wired networking without DHCP

I suspect I'm not the only person with a wired network adapter - and some of us may be trying to do things like configure routers, etc, where there's no active DHCP server.
I was in this situation a couple of days ago, configuring a dd-wrt box with DHCP turned off.
The best how-to I found was at this entry at HeadlessAndroid
This could be "old hat" to everybody here (other than me), but, for most of my android devices, if I'm in the terminal, I'm connected via "adb terminal" so I've never needed to do this - and ifcfg does not work the way I'd have expected.
Hope this helps someone...
Networking on a Headless Android System
Android isn't the most intuitive environment for setting up networking on the command line. After playing with several different options here's what I've found.
Summary
# netcfg eth0 dhcp
# route add default gw 192.168.0.1 dev eth0
# setprop net.dns1 208.67.222.222
# setprop net.dns2 208.67.222.220
Details
The Android tools are quite different from the tools found on other embedded Linux systems, so most people I've talked to have had difficulty figuring out what utilities to use and how to use them. The most interesting one is ifconfig. When you type ifconfig on an Android system nothing happens. On a standard busybox or gnu based Linux system you will see the available networking interfaces and their associated settings (ok, technically ifconfig -a will show you that information). Since ifconfig doesn't show anything, most people assume (incorrectly) that it doesn't work.
On my development platform, to set a static IP address, I did the following:
# ifconfig eth0 192.168.0.84 netmask 255.255.255.0
Which didn't give any response, but DID show the following when I did netcfg.
# netcfg
lo UP 127.0.0.1 255.0.0.0 0x00000049
eth0 UP 192.168.0.84 255.255.255.0 0x00001043
usb0 DOWN 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 0x00001002
tunl0 DOWN 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 0x00000080
gre0 DOWN 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 0x00000080
sit0 DOWN 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 0x00000080
So what about DHCP you may ask?
# netcfg eth0 dhcp
Which yields the following.
# netcfg
lo UP 127.0.0.1 255.0.0.0 0x00000049
eth0 UP 192.168.0.227 255.255.255.0 0x00001043
usb0 DOWN 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 0x00001002
tunl0 DOWN 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 0x00000080
gre0 DOWN 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 0x00000080
sit0 DOWN 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 0x00000080
Just because you have an IP address now doesn't mean the applications on your Android device can get to the network. For that you have to set a default route and set the DNS resolver addresses. Again, with route keep in mind it won't show the usual output that a standard busybox or gnu based embedded Linux system would show.
To set the default route:
# route add default gw 192.168.0.1 dev eth0
And to set the DNS (I'm using OpenDNS addresses here):
# setprop net.dns1 208.67.222.222
# setprop net.dns2 208.67.222.220
And that allows the holy grail of a DNS resolved ping to a domain on the Internet.
# ping google.com

routing difference between linux and Android (Lollipop)

I'm trying to set up a lollipop-TV-box with wlan and lan adapter as a router the way I did it with a Linux-box, but it doesn't work
I tried it the Linux-way on a linux-Machine with a shell-script. The wlan-net is 192.168.0.x the lan is 192.168.1.x. The wlan-ip in the Android/Linux router is 192.168.0.13 the lan in the same device is 192.168.1.2, the connected lan-client-ip is 192.168.2.4
the routing is Internet-(Wifi)-Gateway 192.168.0.1->Android/Linux-Box 192.168.0.13/192.168.1.2->192.168.2.4 and vice-versa
on lan-client:
ip route:
default via 192.168.1.2 dev eth0 proto static metric 1024
192.168.1.0/24 dev eth0 proto kernel scope link src 192.168.1.4
on Android/Linux-Router
192.168.0.0/24 dev wlan0 proto kernel scope link src 192.168.0.13 metric 600
192.168.1.0/24 dev eth0 proto kernel scope link src 192.168.1.2 metric 100
I also enabled forwarding and set the forward-tables with iptables
With the Linux-Box as a router everything works like a charm, with Android not, when I ping the lan-ip of the client from the Android box (ping 192.168.1.4) the reply is network unreachable from the external internet-server
PING 192.168.1.4 (192.168.1.4) 56(84) bytes of data.
From 84.116.198.82: icmp_seq=7 Destination Net Unreachable
From 84.116.198.82: icmp_seq=8 Destination Net Unreachable
From 84.116.198.82: icmp_seq=17 Destination Net Unreachable
I have to specify the interface with ping -I eth0 192.168.1.4, then it works, although this should already be specified by the local routes, like if the local request is routed over the public gateway. Looks like in Android the local routing is overriden by a hidden route to the default gateway.
So, what is the difference?

Problem with VPN tether gateway setup

I have a G930F running Superman ROM rooted on MM with a ported XAA CSC. I have set it up to run a VPN gateway using iptables and ip route. I am able to get tethered devices to connect to the Internet through the VPN if I manually set the IP addresses and DNS servers on the clients connecting. I do however have some devices that do not have the ability to manually set the IP and DNS servers and it's also a pain to set every device up manually. I ran a Wireshark capture and found several ARP requests not being responded to from dhcpd/dnsmasq trying to hand out ip addresses to the clients. My goal is to get DHCP up and running on wlan0 to hand out IP and DNS configuration. I suspect it is not working due to the nature of the changes I've made with iptables and ip route. I'm thinking the dhcp is being forwarded to the tun0 interface. My question is how to exclude the DHCP from being forwarded to the tun0 interface... Or if someone else can come up with a more elegant solution to my problem, as I'm currently reading up on ip and iptables syntax and commands and my current knowledge is fairly basic. The process I'm using to connect my tethered devices is as follows: connect VPN, turn on tether, run commands listed below to connect the wlan0 and tun0 interfaces and connect clients to the phone after manually setting the IP and DNS.
Code:
su
iptables -t filter -F FORWARD
iptables -t nat -F POSTROUTING
iptables -t filter -A FORWARD -j ACCEPT
iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -j MASQUERADE
ip rule add from 192.168.43.0/24 lookup 61
ip route add default dev tun0 scope link table 61
ip route add 192.168.43.0/24 dev wlan0 scope link table 61
ip route add broadcast 255.255.255.255 dev wlan0 scope link table 61
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Did you ever get this to work nicely? I am very intrigued.
Also, what VPN software are you using? I am using NCP which does most of what I want, though it is frustrating that I can't programmatically control connection/disconnection/profile selection nor even get it to connect at boot.

[GUIDE] Tethering through VPN over USB-OTG-ACA Ethernet /w IPv6 Support

This is a guide for tethering over USB Ethernet adapter. The purpose of this is to reliably USB tether to any router, without the need for a USB port or stable USB/RNDIS support(Broadcom MIPS is particularly bad). USB-OTG-ACA means the phone is powered externally while also operating in host mode. I used a cheap micro-USB Y-cable for this that lets me plug in a power source, USB Ethernet adapter, and phone together. IPv6 is supported via masquerading, so you share public IPs with your phone(thus hiding devices behind it). In this example I tether to a VPN tun0 interface, but you can tether to and from any interface you want.
This guide is targeted to more advanced users, but I included a E5 Play kernel and the files required at the bottom of this post for those who wouldn't be able to try this otherwise.
The first step is to enable the kernel IPv6 NAT table, with iptables and masquerading support. To do this I used LSM Kernel. My device is the E5 Play, steps for other devices are a little different.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-e5/development/kernel-lowspecmoto-kernel-v0-1a-t3882378
These need to be set in james_defconfig. You can also enable any necessary kernel modules for your Ethernet adapter here.
Code:
CONFIG_NF_NAT_IPV6=y
CONFIG_IP6_NF_TARGET_MASQUERADE=y
CONFIG_IP6_NF_NAT=y
I had to disable the WireGuard install script and use jury_rig.sh instead, as well as fix a minor typo in the build script(misspelled and erroneous compile command) and one of the source files (extra const declaration).
The next step is to disable the IPv4 DHCP client for the Ethernet adapter's interface eth0. After a little reverse engineering, I found this state was controlled by /data/misc/ethernet/ipconfig.txt, and there is already a tool I can use to generate configurations.
https://github.com/jhswartz/ipconfigstore
I just feed it an empty static assignment and DHCP is then disabled.
Code:
ipAssignment: STATIC
id: 0
Next was to cross-compile radvd to support RA for IPv6. Modern versions of OpenWRT support spoofing so you don't need this, but everything else requires you run a RA server from the gateway device. I needed to use android-ifaddrs to get around an unsupported feature in the NDK. The version I built expects the config to exist at /sdcard/radvd.conf.
Now comes the scripting to make everything work. I made an application for this, but you can also accomplish this with something like Tasker or even run it manually.
At boot:
*Launch radvd as a root daemon
*Start your VPN
*Delete the file /sdcard/tether.state
*Execute tether.sh as root
On Intent.ACTION_POWER_CONNECTED:
*Execute tether.sh as root
tether.state keeps the script from applying NAT rules more than once, so the connection is just restored when the script is re-ran.
Code:
#!/system/bin/sh
echo 'Waiting for tether interfaces'
for waitTime in 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15
do

echo "$waitTime"
sleep 1
done
sleep 2
if [ -d '/sys/class/net/eth0' ] && [ -d '/sys/class/net/tun0' ]
then
echo 'Preparing tether interface'

ip link set dev eth0 mtu 1280

if [ ! -f '/sdcard/tether.state' ]
then
echo 'Setting up NAT'
touch /sdcard/tether.state
ndc nat enable eth0 tun0 99
ndc ipfwd add eth0 tun0
ip6tables -t nat -N natctrl_nat_POSTROUTING

ip6tables -t filter -A natctrl_FORWARD -j DROP
fi
else
echo 'Skipping operation, USB not connected'
fi
eth0 is the Ethernet adapter and tun0 is the VPN interface. I also use a very similar script to do the same thing with RNDIS, you can setup all kinds of interesting tethering setups with these commands. If you want to run DHCP on the phone for use with a switch or cross-over cable or whatever, this command should work as root:
Code:
dnsmasq --keep-in-foreground --no-resolv --no-poll --dhcp-authoritative --dhcp-range=192.168.42.10,192.168.42.99,1h --dhcp-option=6,8.8.8.8,8.8.4.4 --dhcp-option-force=43,ANDROID_METERED --dhcp-leasefile=/sdcard/dnsmasq.leases --pid-file=/sdcard/dnsmasq.pid --listen-mark 0xf0063
Since this is a powered tethering setup, you probably want to use something to control charging:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.slash.batterychargelimit&hl=en&gl=US
On the router, set it's IP to 192.168.42.1, gateway to 192.168.42.129, DNS servers, and DHCP range to 192.168.42.10-192.168.42.99. Disable IPv6 support if it has it. Don't plug anything into the WAN (yellow) port, the phone connects to LAN.

eth0 is the Ethernet adapter and tun0 is the VPN interface. I also use a very similar script to do the same thing with RNDIS, you can setup all kinds of interesting tethering setups with these commands. If you want to run DHCP on the phone for use with a switch or cross-over cable or whatever, this command should work as root:
Code:
dnsmasq --keep-in-foreground --no-resolv --no-poll --dhcp-authoritative --dhcp-range=192.168.42.10,192.168.42.99,1h --dhcp-option=6,8.8.8.8,8.8.4.4 --dhcp-option-force=43,ANDROID_METERED --dhcp-leasefile=/sdcard/dnsmasq.leases --pid-file=/sdcard/dnsmasq.pid --listen-mark 0xf0063
Since this is a powered tethering setup, you probably want to use something to control charging:

On the router, set it's IP to 192.168.42.1, gateway to 192.168.42.129, DNS servers, and DHCP range to 192.168.42.10-192.168.42.99. Disable IPv6 support if it has it. Don't plug anything into the WAN (yellow) port, the phone connects to LAN.
Moto E5 Play kernel with IPv6 NAT support

I wrote an app to manage this, but it still needs a bit of work to handle custom configurations.

For those who don't have a kernel with the network modules you've mentioned, but want to get ipv6 working (thinking of Tmobile) and have access to openwrt router, would adding the mentioned ip6tables command work?
In my router, I added something like this,
ip6tables -t mangle -I POSTROUTING -o usb0 -j HL --hl-set 65
but ipv6 connection didn't work. If I remove that line from the router firewall, then ipv6 connection works but it counts as tethered.

One option is to use your phone's native tether and set up IPv6 nat on your router. This will make your iptables rule work and only requires provisioning and dun bypasses on the phone. The downside is your tethered traffic will go through a separate IPv6 address from your phone, so it's more risky.
The other option is to proxy, but getting UDP support is a real hurdle. Ideas are porting Shadowsocks or one of those Socks5 proxies written in Go. Adding UDP support to microsocks is also possible, but way more work. You'd use the Shadowsocks client or transocks-wong on the router to serve clients with no knowledge of the proxy.
Edit: also, what phone/rom/router are you working with?

I'm working with OnePlus 8 (phone) + GL.iNET MT-1300 (router) on TMO network.
I am able to get USB tethering to work with the router for IPv4. My setup is as follows:
Phone (USB) <---> MT-1300 (router) <---> clients (PC/phones/TVs)
For IPv4, I added the following line to router firewall:
iptables -t mangle -I POSTROUTING -o usb0 -j TTL --ttl-set 65

Make sure usb0 is bridged to wan, not lan. Then your iptables rule will work.
