Hello all, I am going through the LARTC howto to understand how the iproute2 works. But some concepts like Policy Routing, RPDB etc are not clear to me. I am pretty new to iproute, beeing using route command for long... From what I understand 1. rules (ip rule) tell how to select packets for routing and route (ip route) tell where to route the selected packets. 2. A collection of rules is

Hello all, I do not read C very well (especially kernel C). Though I have tried to muddle my way through an understanding of what''s going on in fib_hash.c, fib_rules.c, and route.c, I have not succeeded to my satisfaction, hence my post. I''m trying to document the general process of route selection, and have come up with the following overview. Could somebody point out any

I have two adsl lines on my linux firewall box and i want to do some load balance between them...i tried a lot of different things, but it isn´t working...Following the instructions of http://lartc.org/howto/lartc.rpdb.multiple-links.html i used the configuration above. using "iptraf" I can see some few packets using the ppp1 connection, but almost all the packets use ppp0 connection.

Hi, I''m sorry for "novice"-level question, but I hope your expert advice will save me many painful hours running after my own tail... Let assume I have Linux box with eth0, eth1 and eth2 interfaces. Each one has IP assigned from different network. By default, IP address associated with eth0 is chosen as default routing. My application creates thee TCP sockets and explicitly

Hi, this might be a dumb question, but I''m not finding much information online. I''m trying to setup a 2.6 linux box to run nat across multiple upstream links as a simple way to aggregate bandwidth. I found the instructions in lartc section 4.2 (http://lartc.org/howto/lartc.rpdb.multiple-links.html) fairly clear and straightforward. I implemented those, and a couple of trivial

Hi, I''ve set up a Linux box with redhat on to act as an internet gateway and I''m running into a few problems. Its got two adsl modems connected to it, both connected to seperate 512kbs lines. Now I''ve followed the simple source routing in the advanced routing howto to the letter but it doesnt work. I''ve got it autoconnecting on startup and redhat puts ppp1

Hello All, I have a linux box running with three NIC''s, I have used brctl tool to configure this box as a bridge, i have given it ONE logical ipaddres, Every thing is working fine, but now i am required to configure the same bridge as a LOAD BALANCER.... On some googling i found the following link http://lartc.org/howto/lartc.rpdb.multiple-links.html This HOWTO requires me to have one

Hello, I started off by reading the Linux Advanced Routing & Traffic Control Howto, then searched a bit around the web. I see many documents discussing these matters with kernel 2.2.x but they are quite old, something around 1998-2000. I have some questions but I might as well start by exposing my setup to clarify things. I have a couple of internet links: a leased line of 256kbit/s and an

Hello, I''m new to the list and iproute2 itself. I was searching for a way to simultaneously use several IPs on the *same network interface* for outbound traffic. Let me explain: I have eth0 interface to which I set 2 IP addresses; 192.168.0.1 and 192.168.0.2. Then I want to connect to Internet through 192.168.0.254 gateway using round-robin between those 2 addresses. The iproute2

Hi, I have a server with 2 NIC and 2 different ISP. The idea is configure a Load Balance with these 2 providers. I reviewed: http://lartc.org/lartc.html#LARTC.RPDB.MULTIPLE-LINKS but I would like to know if this is a good method to use with CentOS 6. Thanks in advance!

I just stumped on the following project: http://selab.edu.ms/twiki/bin/view/Networking/RoutesKeeperProject From the page: > Free as in GPL: Yes, it''s very important, we all love Mr. Richard > Stallman • Load balancing: Use unlimited number of internet > connections simultaneously • Fail over: You still get persistent > internet access although some of your connections

I have two T1s and I'd like to split my SIP traffic over the two. I am looking at this: http://lartc.org/howto/lartc.rpdb.multiple-links.html what bothers me about it is the note "Note that balancing will not be perfect, as it is route based, and routes are cached. This means that routes to often-used sites will always be over the same provider.". If all my traffic goes to the same

I configured multiple isp (actually only multiple gw) according http://lartc.org/howto/lartc.rpdb.multiple-links.html. Now NAT (Internet) seems to work, both external interfaces work ( I didnt configure load balancing because I dont need it). However I have problem that I can not ping from NAT to public ip of my Linux box. Problem is that I can not connect from 192.168.1.0/24 network to services

Hi! In our students'' hostel we have 6 DSL lines (dialups to different providers); we have set up a linux box (currently running 2.6.11-rc2-mm2, but the problem described hereafter also applies to previous 2.6-series kernels) with help from http://lartc.org/howto/lartc.rpdb.multiple-links.html#AEN298 Our Setup looks like this: 10.0.0.0/8 10.70.255.1 +----------+ +-----------+ |

hi, i wann to make multigateway routing and i read ur how to on http://lartc.org/howto/lartc.rpdb.multiple-links.html and create some rules which i am sending u, but with this rules i am not able to do multigateway routing on my linux router so plz help me out. thanks the rules are given below IF0=eth0 IF1=eth1 IF2=eth2 IP1=192.168.1.2 IP2=61.246.243.86 P1=192.168.1.1 P2=61.246.243.81

Hi, this is my first post to the list. I have googled a lot, and still cannot find a proper solution. I hope someone here will be able to shed some light on my doubts. I have set up a firewall using kernel 2.6.15 (Debian) that does NAT for 100 clients, and uses two different ISPs, using the howto found at http://lartc.org/howto/lartc.rpdb.multiple-links.html. I have *not*

I set up this config: +------+ -+ ISP1 +--+ +------+ | +-------+ +--+ linux | +------+ | +-------+ -+ ISP2 +--+ +------+ No problem. Standard setup with two ISP''s. Both routed subnets. Default gateway is ISP1. No magic here. Now I put a server behind the Linux box. I want the server to be reachable on an /extra/ IP in the routed subnet of ISP2. +------+ -+ ISP1

hello list (and martin) ;x i have now composed my final(?) policy routing design. the goals i had when beginning with this, for you that have not follow mine and martins thread, was to 1) only let 192.168.1/24 to see all routes, 2) not route between defined networks, except to and from 192.168.1/24 and 3) not defined networks should only be able to reach 192.168.1/24. this might sound simple.

HI All , I am running a FC6 box with two internet links with load balance . Every thing is working fine expect the MSN connection that failed and reconnect every time and SSL connections .
