Hello, LARTC! I''ve been having troubles with load balance with ip + fwmark. I was wondering if these points are mandatory for this scheme to work: 1. Is there any problem if the linux gateway has a default gateway? Do I have to remove it? 2. In the scenario with 4 NICs, one routing table each, and another routing table doing load balance, Do the tables that imply routes that are being used by the load balance routing table have to be removed? p.e. : echo 255 local > /etc/iproute2/rt_tables echo 254 main >> /etc/iproute2/rt_tables echo 253 default >> /etc/iproute2/rt_tables echo 0 unspec >> /etc/iproute2/rt_tables echo 200 balanceo2 >> /etc/iproute2/rt_tables echo 201 cable >> /etc/iproute2/rt_tables echo 202 cable2 >> /etc/iproute2/rt_tables ip route add default proto static via $GW dev eth0 src $IP1 table cable ip route add default proto static via $GW2 dev eth1 src $IP2 table cable2 ip route add table balanceo2 default proto static \ nexthop via $GW dev eth0 weight 1 \ nexthop via $GW2 dev eth1 weight 1 \ 3. A final aclaration, the use of every link at the same time has been achieved using routing tables cable and cable2 and packet marking. Thanks. _______________________________________________ LARTC mailing list / LARTC@mailman.ds9a.nl http://mailman.ds9a.nl/mailman/listinfo/lartc HOWTO: http://lartc.org/
