similar to: assigning "best" gateway via DHCP

Hi, Regarding the discussion of gateways, Can the Vyatta routing software and/or hardware appliance solution help?

hi all. here in Lebanon,Beriut we are allowed only to use satellite for downlink only. uplink is made through a router connected to public land lines. The satellite card is a penta card. i want to distribute Internet connection to customers. such a connection i want to do on linux. but what hinders me is the configuration which i dont know how to do. so please , some one tell me how to

Hi folks, i spent my whole day trying to set up my linux router using load balancing with multiple uplinks. I mainly focused on the nano howto, but somewhere I have a big mistake within my head. Basically the load-balancing is working, but not on a per-connection basis - just on a per packet basis. Practically this is not usable of course <g> But as far as I understood it should work..

The free DHCP solution, ISC, seems to be having scaling issues (i.e. handling only about 200 DHCPDISCOVER and 20 DHCPRENEW requests), and I was wondering if anyone had any open source suggestions of solutions that could scale much better? (Ideally, I could find a free version of a solution like Nominum, but I know that's asking for much.) Anyone have any suggestions? -- Also on LinkedIn??

Hello, Since I could not figure out my previous problem, let me ask in a different way. I have 3 networks inside my LAN. They are 172.16.55.0/24 , 172.16.56.0/24 and 172.16.57.0/24 respectively. They all use eth0 as an alias. I also have 2 uplinks to different ISPs. One of them is leased line and the other one is ADSL. One of my uplink is 81.8.120.18/30 with gateway 81.8.120.17 on eth1 and the

hi, I am just about to try (next week) some streaming to Icecast2 over a satellite uplink in a remote location. I was wondering if anyone has tried this and if there are any issues that I shoudl be prepared for. One issue I am wary of is the possible role latency will play in this system. Any pointers on streaming over high latency or satellite internet connections most appreciated! adam

I have an application that needs to vary the menu choices available based upon the availability of an external resource at a given time. What I have in mind is a system that can uplink a user to one of many different satellites. Due to the nature of orbital mechanics a satellite may be out of range at any given time. I only want to present a menu of available satellites. I can query an

Hi, i added second nic to my server I have these two uplinks: My main uplink is 195.XXX.XXX.XXX My secondary is 83.XXX.XXX.XXX When I add the secondary NIC, CentOS automatically sets default gw to 83.XXX.XXX.1 and deletes the gateway from 195.XXX.XXX.1 How can I set it that CentOs uses the gateway 195.XXX.XXX.1 as default gateway. When I set this manually with route, CentOS changes my

For easy reading: http://www.karthaus.nl/r/ Hi, We used to have 1 single ip range (1.1.1.0/24) that had one uplink to a = switch of the colocation provider. Recently we got a second range 2.2.2.0/24 and a redundant uplink = directly on two routers. But our switch does not have spanning tree = protocol support so we cannot use them redundantly. We have set up the switch to have a vlan for both

Lately I''ve been entertaining the idea of setting up a neighborhood network (wireless and possibly some wired). I have a few neighbors who subscribe to your typical consumer grade broadband connection (e.g. Comcast cable or Verizon DSL) and a number of neighbors with no connectivity or are still stuck on dial-up. Currently I''m sharing my connection with my nearest neighbor but

Hello all, I am providing broadband service through DVB circuit. I have 4KB uplink and 32KB downlink. I want to share 32KB downlink bandwidth among 192.168.0.0/24 (20 users in this subnet i.e 192.168.0.2-192.168.0.22)subnet where each user will get 2KB to 6KB bandwidth. And from 4KB uplink bandwidth each users will get only 1KB to 2KB bandwidth.

Hi, I have an ESXi server, on top of it I have created one VM whose IP address is 192.168.79.1. I want to connect to the VM on ESXi server from my host machine but I am not able to do it. I have created a network "networkforSC" and I have pasted my xml file content below but I am not able to add any uplink (how to add it?) . Below is the xml file of my node as well as the network which

Hi, I''ve got a rather confusing problem. My linux router box has several internet uplinks of various kinds (pppoe, ippp, ethernet). These uplinks are used by a tunnel to another location. It kinda looks like this: eth0 - internet uplink eth1 - LAN tun0 - tunnel device ppp0 - another internet uplink ... Routing is setup with iproute2 in a way that pakets with a source IP from the LAN

I''m trying to simulate a satellite link to a Linux server to test application performance. I haven''t used any of the tc stuff before, but I blandly assured people it would be "easy" to set up a simulated long thin pipe on a spare network interface. However, now that I''m exploring, it''s proving quite difficult. Let me start with the general question

Is there a way to specify a variable for the gateway in /etc/shorewall/providers? I have in my scenario: eth0 dsl (static IP) eth1 cable (dhcp assigned IP) eth2 lan1 Is it possible to specify the gateway as a variable based on the current DHCP lease (like $eth0_gw)? I''m following the documentation at http://www.shorewall.net/Shorewall_and_Routing.html. -Scott

tinc hosts listen for connections to Tor v3 onion services, and they connect to peers using Tor SocksPorts. MPTCP aggregates full-mesh connections between hosts. For Internet hosts with well-peered gigabit uplinks, this permits throughput among peers at 30-50 Mbps for multiple streams, vs ~10 Mbps at most for individual connections. https://github.com/annymous/oniontinc includes bash scripts for

I need to debug a call quality issue with remote users on the other end of a satellite link. The symptoms are: we here on the Internet side can hear them just fine. On their end, things work sorta OK most times, but they often suffer from severe dropouts and digital warbling, both of which I attribute to them missing packets. Often times they can't make out a word we are saying while we can

Hi! I had two uplinks till today. We stopped one of them today, so i thought i could share my experience. (it is maybe useful for somebody) I hadn''t managed to configure it using a LARTC howto, but the Nano-howto (http://www.ssi.bg/~ja/nano.txt) and julian''s kernel patches. I had some problems with icq connections, because it is a two step connection (It is just theory). 1.
