I have a network laid out as follows.
The Network

LINUX |
Router1 | Eth2 - LAN 172.16.1.x

---------- Eth1 -Bridge 1a 192.168.1.1
|
|
---------- Eth0 - Bridge 1b 192.168.1.2
LINUX |
Router2 | Eth2 - LAN 172.16.2.x
|
---------- Eth1 -Bridge 2a 192.168.2.1
|
|
---------- Eth0 - Bridge 2b 192.168.2.2
LINUX |
Router3 | Eth2 - LAN1 172.16.3.x
| Eth3 - LAN2 172.16.4.x
| Eth4 - LAN3 172.16.5.x
|
---------- Eth1 -Bridge 3a 192.168.3.1
|
|
---------- Eth0 - Bridge 3b 192.168.3.2
LINUX |
Router4 | Eth1 - INTERNET 2 x.x.x.x
|
---------- Eth2 - Bridge 4a 192.168.4.1

Currently I do no real routing and use mainly IPTABLES to set rules for forwarding. This
worked great until I got a second source, Now I set up virtual interfaces for each person
I want to go out INTERNET 2 or eth1 on router 4.
I want to use a routing protocol that will allow these routers to speak to each other. I
wanted to get feedback on where I could find some GOOD documentation on OSPF or RIPv2.
There are large amounts of computers on each LAN and I want the router to determine which
line is the best to send the packet out. I would also like the ability to tell it only
send certain types of clients out one pipe. Does anyone have suggestions for this. I
would like to keep it a little more low maintenance then my firewall scripts I already
have. By the way I have swizeet HTB limiting scripts I hope to contribute to the list.
Thanks,
