Shorewall users - Oct 2003 - Help on route tables and masq ...

Hi,
 
I''m trying to configure a machine with two public ip''s to work
as a firewall
 Two different suppliers provide both public ip''s, so as I have an fw
which
is made of:
 
eth0 -> supplier A
eth1 -> supplier B
eth2 -> internal LAN
 
Using the 4.2 section of LARTC documents, a divided rooter between two
providers can be made. Even it can be configured to have a loading balance.
To create new routing tables, they could be introduced to the shorewall init
file.
What I''d try it''d be that each of both suppliers would be used
in different
occasions for the internet output.
 
The question arises in how I''d configure and define it in the MASQ
file:
/etc/shorewall/masq
eh0 eth2
eth1 eth2

Would it be right? That is, when up to the routing table an output interface
is chosen, masq will be done upon it?

Regards & thanks.

Yes -- provided that you spell "eth0" correctly in the first entry.
