Given a linux box with two ethernet cards:
eth0 at ip 192.168.100
eth1 at ip 172.16.1.100,
and an internet "appliance" with two ethernet ports:
p0 at ip 192.168.1.101
p1 at ip 172.16.1.1,I want to force packets from eth0 <--> eth1 to take the path eth0 <--> p0 <--> p1<-->eth1.
What I have here is an appliance that I want to run some throughput tests.
The cables are set up eth0 <--> p0 and p1<-->eth1 and work (pings work just fine)....
no matter what I try, the kernel is too smart for me :-) , and it routes internally (inside the linux box) instead of entering the outside world.
Any ideas?
