I have a working router (thanks to Julian''s patches and the threads on this site) load balancing over Dual ISP''s. Links for the curious (see router setup below as well) - Necessary Patches - http://www.ssi.bg/~ja/ How to Patch (I use Debian Sarge and downloaded the latest source from kernel.org) - http://www.desktop-linux.net/debkernel.htm Necessary Reading -

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 all I continue fighting with load balancing, I though it was easier :-/ Here is the script with my configuration #!/bin/sh IFI=eth0 IPI=192.168.10.155 NMI=24 IFE1=eth1 IPE1=192.168.1.128 NWE1=192.168.1.0 NME1=24 BRD1=192.168.1.255 GWE1=192.168.1.1 IFE2=eth2 IPE2=192.168.254.128 NWE2=192.168.254.0 NME2=24 BRD2=192.168.254.255 GWE2=192.168.254.254 ip link set $IFI up ip addr add

Dear Sir, Please help me in building the right solution. My requirement is: 1st I want to club both ISP bandwidth to get 512kbps. 2nd, In normal condition, it should be in Load balancing. 3rd , In ISP Failover condition, traffic will automatically route to working ISP. What I have: I have installed the RHEL 3.0 with 3 Network Card. Kernel is 2.4.21-9EL I have the link from two ISP both

Hi! I''m studying load balancing and fault tolerance using multiple WAN interfaces. I follow the howto in http://www.ssi.bg/~ja/nano.txt but the problem is that faults detected are limited only in link between lan gateway and modem/router adsl, and none about adsl signal. Someone can tell me another howto about fault tolerance using a different method? (that solve my problem) I know

A site I administer has dual T1''s. We have this set up according to NANO-HOWTO[1] using Julian''s routes patch on a late model 2.4 kernel. All is well, has been working well for a long time. Recently one of our T1 providers went belly up and we got something better. Now we have a /28 where previously we only used one IP per interface. Present interfaces: eth0 - T1#1, single

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.

After many many hours of frustration and failures I''m almost to the point that I don''t think this is even currently possible with Linux. With out going in to too much detail, I am effectively wanting to do the following. I want to be able to take traffic in from a local LAN on eth0 and route it out eth1 to a default gateway with a static IP. I want said default gateway

Hi all, I have implemented load balancing using the tutorial http://www.ssi.bg/~ja/nano.txt ..The traffic is going through both my external network interface. I have some questions regarding this: ip route add default table 222 proto static \ nexthop via GWE1 dev IFE1 \ nexthop via GWE2 dev IFE2 The author explains the kernel chooses both the interfaces alternately (weight being 1

Hi, I am new in LARTC list. I had intermediate skills in networking. What I tried to do: Use 2 links with loadsharing + falt toletant (to add bandwitdh) ok ! I am use Debian Etch in router/fw With kernel debian default + routes-2.6.17-12.diff patch The Problem: The iproute2 just route thought the last gateway of nexthop rule. I was running tcpdump in 2 terminals, tcpdump -nni eth0 ...

Hi. Im now decribeing my problem very clearly to see if anyone could help me. I have 3 (three) nics in my system. 1 is for my internet network - (eth1) 2 are for my 2 adsl lines that i use to connect to the internet (eth2 is my "master" adsl line) and (eth0 is my "slave" adsl line). I know that to make redundance work ill have to setup the ip route and ip rule in my

here''s the setup (two dsl - same provider) +-----> link1 LAN----- linux box --| |----------internet +-----> link2 the setup is ok in terms of the failover requirement. the other link takes over when one is down. however, there is a very noticeable lag when both lines are up. i''ve tried changing

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.

First of all, thanks to this group for the awesome documentation on the load balancing and thanks to http://www.ssi.bg/~ja/nano.txt. I''m now balancing a DSL and Cable Modem account (DSL is 1.5/768 and Cable is 3/256). It took some work but I learned a lot along the way. For a few sites that I tend to download a lot from, I found that I could configure Flashget

hi, I''ve a dedicated internet link 512k with a cisco router, and now, I want to upgrade bandwidth with 8 ADSLs (512k each) then: - build kernel 2.4.27 with pachs: - patch-o-matic-ng-20040621 : CONNMARK, H323, etc... - http://www.ssi.bg/~ja/#multigw Julian''s patch. - Activate "equal cost multi path" (Advanced Router-Networking Options) and so on -

Hello list, I want a set-up with a satellite link (eth0) and a cellular cdma link (ppp0) coming into a linux box with a LAN (eth1 or wlan0) to be able to route first through the satellite when it''s on, or else the cdma when it''s in range. Load sharing is not critical, but it would be nice. The satellite has a static IP, the cdma is dynamic. Both WANs are

Hi William. Thanks a lot for your help. Im having some trouble recompiling my kernel after a installed the patch. Im running RH 7.3 with kernel 2.4.18-3. The patch I installed is routes-2.4.16-6.diff. I got no errors installing it. I added the multipath support, and recompiled it. The make dep and the make bzImage went fine. I got error during the make modules. These are the errors:

hi for those who was fallowing this topic I can say that IP_ROUTE_MULTIPATH_CACHED must be disabled! After few tests I''m quite sure that this was cousing my problems. Now I''m using 2.5.15 kernel without patch of Julian Anastasov and load-balancing is working. lartc split-access how to and http://www.ssi.bg/~ja/nano.txt now both are working fine Now I will try to use fwmark
