Hi, Is it possible to balance load over 2 interfaces ... Let say I''m shapping traffic on eth1, and for some reason, eth1 brokes down. How do I, dynamically, swap to eth0 so I wont stop my traffic going thru the box? Am I clear?. Please for give me for my english since it is not my native languaje. regards Lucas _______________________________________________ LARTC mailing list / LARTC@mailman.ds9a.nl http://mailman.ds9a.nl/mailman/listinfo/lartc HOWTO: http://lartc.org/
Yes it is
I''m running it over 3 lines very nicely
Just use :
/sbin/ip route add equalize \
nexthop via $ADSL_GW1 dev $ADSL_IFACE1 weight 1\
nexthop via $ADSL_GW2 dev $ADSL_IFACE2 weight 1\
nexthop via $ADSL_GW3 dev $ADSL_IFACE3 weight 1

Hello Víctor, : I tried this and it works when an interface goes down, but how can I do : if it''s not an interface but one of these gateways that goes down? I : would like that in this case, the apropriate "nexthop" drops too, so my : traffic goes through the other two, and when that fallen gateway is : once again alive, the "nexthop" comes alive too, so it''s once again : used. How can I do this? You probably should try out the dead gateway detection patches by Julian Anastasov [1] documented here [2]. I have not yet used the DGD patches, but my understanding is that they''ll detect unreachability of the nexthop and mark a route as dead until the nexthop becomes reachable again. As I''m sure you can imagine, it''s much more difficult to identify problems further upstream--and that''s what dynamic routing protocols are for, anyway. : >/sbin/ip route add equalize \ : > nexthop via $ADSL_GW1 dev $ADSL_IFACE1 weight 1\ : > nexthop via $ADSL_GW2 dev $ADSL_IFACE2 weight 1\ : > nexthop via $ADSL_GW3 dev $ADSL_IFACE3 weight 1 Best of luck, -Martin [1] http://www.ssi.bg/~ja/#routes [2] http://www.ssi.bg/~ja/dgd-usage.txt -- Martin A.
