Hi all, I haven't found anything in Google about this. I'm creating a firewall router with Centos with few virtual IP using iptables. May I ask for your experience? Is there any pitfall or bad side of using virtual IP for this purpose? I'm using few virtual IP to accommodate few subnets that go through this firewall/router. Thank you. Fajar.
