similar to: load balancing

yes, this is a crazy subject. I have 4 ADSL lines to the same provider, which even have the same gateway. Those lines are connected to the same machine (more crazyness: even connected to the same nic. it works fine, I swear). this machine will serve this conenction to a local net. so, I setup the ifaces correctly, everything works. I add balancing using this command: # ip route replace default

I have a linux server running Mandrake 10, with the kernel configured with "CONFIG_IP_ADVANCED_ROUTER=y CONFIG_IP_MULTIPLE_TABLES=y CONFIG_IP_ROUTE_MULTIPATH=y" options, with 4 ethernet cards: - 2 ethernet used to connect to my lan (eth0=192.168.1.x and eth1=192.168.2.x) - 2 ethernet used to internet connection (2 adsl lines, both with 600/300 kbtis) The two lan are used to share

Hi Ppl I have 5 adsl lines that after reading quite a bit i managed to get load balanced now abvoiusly it doesnt load balance evenly and this works on what routes are still in the routing cache. my question is my outbound masquerading had to be modified to use snat in iptables instead of just plain masquerading my outbound masquerading now works but my inbound port forwarding doesnt work would

First of all i wanna thanks Christoph Simon for the support. Only after his reply to my email i could see the real solution to the problem (Valeu mesmo cara... me ajudou pra caramba! Fico te devendo essa!) :) Here is what i learned in a month of research: I tried A LOT of things to do load balance, including the one at LARTC homepage. The only tutorial that REALLY works in my case is the

Hello folks: I am trying to set up a router machine to handle all my network connections to the internet and my local network. I have five interfaces in total, three to ISPs (two adsl and one cable) and two interfaces to my local network one to a switch and one wireless card. I have some of the routing working acceptibly but another portion I cannot get working not matter what I''ve

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..

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.

Hello Shorewall list, I''m a happy Shorewall user since a few years now and everything works fine for me except one thing that I try to implement since a week, the multi-isp. I''ve downloaded the 2.4.0 Stable release yesterday and tried the RC2 since a week. My config is a Debian running a kernel 2.4.27 home made with the CONNMARK.diff patch applied I''m using 2 ISP,

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. My routing table is: x.x.x.x dev ppp0 proto kernel scope link src x.x.x.x x.x.x.x dev ppp1 proto kernel scope link src x.x.x.x x.x.x.x dev ppp2 proto kernel scope link src x.x.x.x

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

Hi list, I have tried google but just cant get this to work or figure it out.

Hi, it has been days now that i am looking for a maybe non existent patch for kernel 2.6.x , currently run 2.6.9 for the equalize option in iproute i use : /sbin/ip route add default scope global equalize nexthop dev ppp0 nexthop dev ppp1 have one pptp link and another pppoe i am monitoring the 2 links and what i see is that for multiplie connections to the same destination it does not split

Hello lartc! I have strange problem setting load balancing over 4 interfaces. Something won''t accept more than 3 interfaces, While setting: ip route add default scope global \ nexthop via 0.0.0.0 dev pvc0 weight 1 \ nexthop via 0.0.0.0 dev pvc1 weight 1 \ nexthop via 0.0.0.0 dev pvc2 weight 1 It''s ok: ip r l default nexthop dev pvc0

Hi, can anyone help me with this problem i''ve got! I have a problem with routing on my Mandrake 7.2 Linux Box i was wondering if you could help me with. I live in Australia and as broadband access isn''t very available at the moment, i have 2 modems to dialup to my isp (dynamic ips assigned) to increase my bandwidth at an affordable level. What currently happens is i have a

Hi, i need to setup a equalized route like this: # ip route add default scope global equalize nexthop via xx.xx.5.254 dev eth1 nexthop via xx.xx.5.254 dev eth2 The problem i''m having is that i need to use virtual interfaces too. Example (something like that): ip route add default scope global equalize nexthop via xx.xx.5.254 dev eth1 nexthop via xx.xx.5.254 dev eth2 \ nexthop

Hello, We have 3 DSL connections connected to eth3 and another interface with a dedicated link in eth0 (main table) We want to balance selected traffic (using fwmark and iptables) through our 3 DSL connections in a secondary table named DSL (without using the dedicated link in eth0), but the next command is not accepted, and gives us the following error: # ip route add default

Hello, Currently I''m using the information from http://lartc.org/howto/lartc.rpdb.multiple-links.html and Julian''s patch to load balance two PPPoE Internet connections (DSL). It balances the traffic perfectly. +------------+ + ppp0 (eth0) ---+ Provider 1 + +-----+ | +------------- + LAN +--- eth2

Hi all, ive been using the nano howto to load balance to adsl links for a good while now ive got our live server running kernel 2.6.11.6 and these links work fine. i set up another server same model of machine and used the same kernel config ( wanted to try some tos stuff out) 2.6.11.6 but this one doesnt balance properly. what ever i put in table 222 (which is looked at from all sources) it

Hey, I''m trying to set up a Gentoo box to replace an aging BSD box here. The BSD box is running packet filter and I have it set up to take all data and route it to one of six sattelites. I have come up with the following config, but unfortunately I have no real way to test it short of switching the satellites over to the new system and prayer. The setup is: 192.168.252/22 - The LAN

We are currently using iproute2 to perform a round robin type load balancing. ip route add default proto static scope global nexthop via XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX dev eth0 weight 1 nexthop via XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX dev eth1 weight 1 nexthop via XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX dev eth2 weight 1 >From my understanding this is destination based load balancing.
