Hi all :) there is somekind of strange Routing problem that im getting with Linux-2.6.16 and iproute 2.6.16 , when i use command like : ip route add default nexthop via 1.1.1.1 dev eth0 nexthop via 1.1.1.2 dev eth1 all packets goes on 1.1.1.2 ( always last interface ) , whats is the problem ? this situation also tested with equalize flag , on two physical interface and etc ... -- Lady Luck

Hello! I have trouble with multipath routing. Those options are enabled in kernel: [*] IP: policy routing [*] IP: equal cost multipath [*] IP: equal cost multipath with caching support (EXPERIMENTAL) <*> MULTIPATH: round robin algorithm But issuing: ip r a 1.2.3.0/23 scope global equalize nexthop via 80.245.176.11 \ dev eth0 weight 1 nexthop via 80.245.176.13 dev eth0

I have question about multipath routing. I am running a 2.6.7 kernel (gentoo). I have a route with three nexthops on the same interface. I see a different nexthop being picked for different destination addresses. All is fine. Now if one of the nexthop goes down (arp entry times out and arp request doesnt get a response), does it remove the nexthop from contention and only use the remaining two

Hi, I have a router that got its second link. I was trying to do load balancing, but i can not get it to work properly. Just one link works at time, and is always the second in the command ip route add default table 222 proto static. Am I missing something? My script is below. I am using Debian, tried with kernel 2.6.19 (my compilation) or debian''s one (2.6.18-3-486), same results

I have a 2.6.12(ubuntu-patchset), kernel recompiled with this routing options: [*] IP: advanced router [*] IP: policy routing [*] IP: equal cost multipath Load balancing is working great, but i have problems whits long term tcp flows (like msn-messenger or vpns or any other type of long term ip based conection). I assume this is because after a period of time, the per-host

Dear List. I try to build multipath connection w/ load balance to internet with two different gateway; My system is RH-8.0 with iproute-2.4.7-7.90.1.rpm and Kernel-2.4.26 (patching with Julian A. patch),and follow guide from http://www.linuxvirtualserver.org/~julian/nano.txt, The problem is; when i try to connect to Internet form gateway machine it;s success , but only one interface is

Hey, I''ve been scouring the web these past few days trying to find a suitable technique to load balance my network. Unfortunately I think my setup is very uncommon, so I''m looking to you guys to see if you can help. I currently have 2 ADSL modems, provided by the same ISP and terminating on the same gateway (I think having the same gateway is what is causing the problems, since

Multiple questions here, thinking one email is less annoying (sorry if not). Running tinc 1.0.31 1. Could anyone give an explanation (or point to documentation) of the differences between Connections, Nodes, and Edges in the USR1/2 logging, and the various information in there? 2. Connections appears to match the list of ConnectTo hosts in the main config file -- does this mean this node can

I''ve been reading about multipath routes and found something that no howto I saw mentioned so far: multipath algorithms. The kernel has the followings: # zgrep MULTIPATH_ /proc/config.gz CONFIG_IP_ROUTE_MULTIPATH_CACHED=y CONFIG_IP_ROUTE_MULTIPATH_RR=m CONFIG_IP_ROUTE_MULTIPATH_RANDOM=m CONFIG_IP_ROUTE_MULTIPATH_WRANDOM=m CONFIG_IP_ROUTE_MULTIPATH_DRR=m CONFIG_DM_MULTIPATH_EMC iproute2

Hi, i want to do load balancing of 2 ISP's Everything is set up OK but one of the ISP's is loaded on 100% while the other is utilised on 1 - 5% I've read about Julians patches but they stop at 2.6.14. Is anybody aware of similar patches for higher patchlevels. 2.6.14 is not suitable for my setup Thanks for reading :) -- С уважение, Владимир Витков http://www.netsecad.com

Ok ive been trying to get this to work for about half a year now. Ive searched all over the internet for a solution for my problem. Ive found some solutions, but they only led me to yet more problems. What we want to do is the following: I live in a student complex with 7 other people. Every room has its own internet connection from the same ISP. Ip, gateway, subnet are asigned through dhcp on

Hello. I have the problem that I have two gateways on the same subnet, 80.237.244.1 and 80.237.244.33. Both gateways are 100 MBit cards, so I have 2 times 100 MBit to the Internet. The NIC in the server is a gigabit-card, so this card is easy able to use both gateways for outgoing traffic. Now I just want to use both gateways for my outgoing traffic but no matter what I do, it doesnt work. I

I''ve applied julian''s paches to a 2.6.14 gentoo kernel with the appropiate options enabled, and i''m using a modified version of the mpath2.sh script also available on julian''s site http://www.ssi.bg/~ja/ Overall everything works nearly perfectly. Incomming connections to either the fios (PPPoE) connection, or cable modem get routed back out correctly. The

Hi, I am tring to us ip route to load balance between two interfaces. ip route add equalize 10.200.1.0/24 nexthop via 10.200.0.2 dev neta nexthop via 10.200.0.2 dev neta2 Where neta and neta2 are gre tunnels. Testing show that packets travel in a single sided manner. Do I need to use the multipath (IP_ROUTE_MULTIPATH_CACHED) module? thx jason

Hi, I am currently using a 2.4 kernel with multipath routing patch v5 to send outgoing packets in a 1:1 ratio over two lines, however the lines do not actually have equal upstream bandwidth, one has 800kbit and the other 600kbit, so ideally I would like to send packets in a 4:3 ratio, is there anything in 2.6 or a patch for 2.4 that could be used to do that? I tried this ugly hack but it

Hi, We want to deploy a tinc VPN, with more than 50 sites connected all arround the world. But we cannot trust all our sites with the same level, so the tinc solution (automatic full mesh) is "too automatic" for us : *any* node can add a new node which will be connected directly to others. A solution could be TLS (signing public keys), but create a PKI is another issue for us.

I have a private lan that is connected to the world via 3 dsl lines. I put up a linux box that handles all the dsl lines, lan gateway and all is working well...until...one of the dsl lines goes down.

Hello, I have set up a multipath gateway. System is a linux 2.4.29 kernel, iproute 20010824, iptables 1.2.11. here is the setup: firewall:/# ip rule 0: from all lookup local 100: from all lookup main 152: from all fwmark 10 lookup wan1 153: from all fwmark 20 lookup wan2 201: from 213.223.96.121 lookup wan1 202: from 82.236.230.217 lookup wan2 1000: from

I have 2 cable modems on a server (Linux 2.6.22). I use multipath, so the route is something like this: default nexthop via 201.6.102.1 dev eth1 weight 256 nexthop via 201.6.107.1 dev eth2 weight 128 The first one (eth1) has a higher priority, then when it goes down, I can "ifconfig" the interface eth1 down and Linux automatically detects the "dead"
