Linux Advanced Routing and Traffic Control

Hi,

The machine has two ethernet interfaces: eth0 and eth1.
My LAN is connected to eth0.
The eth1 port is connected to a hub with two Internet routers. eth1 has
two IP addresses, one for each router.
Dynamic routing (or some other complex routing mechanism) is used. NAT
is not used. It is not possible to change the hardware.

I want to configure traffic shaping. But it is not supported to attach a
qdisc to a virtual interface (or in other words to attach a separate
qdisc to each one of the two external Ips that are defined on the WAN
NIC).

So far this seems to be impossible. 

Thanks for your help,
Aron

Aron,

I do not understand your network.  In a prior note, I thought I
understood that you had multiple serial (T1) interfaces.  If you have
multiple interfaces, then your statement about having "one physical WAN
interface"
is misleading.  You may have only one T1 card (physical device), with
several logical interfaces (for example, wan0, wan1 ...), which is not
an uncommon configuration.

Anyway, I don't understand your network, so cannot help.  Please give
"ip addr" and a small ASCII netmap.

 : The scenario I am working on is the second one - there is one
internal
 : network and two ISPs.

Then you have two WAN interfaces?

 : How can I do fwmark based on the outgoing interface?

  iptables -t mangle -A POSTROUTING -o wan0 -j MARK --set-mark
$wan0_mark
  iptables -t mangle -A POSTROUTING -o wan1 -j MARK --set-mark
$wan1_mark

 : Remember that there is just one physical WAN interface, with two IP
 : addresses. Is it possible to fwmark somehow based on the routing
 : decision?

I'm not sure.  Maybe somebody else can pick up that question.  It's
certainly possible to use -j ROUTE based on the fwmark, though [0].  I
don't really think that will be required in your situation, but I won't
know until I understand your network better.

Best of luck,

-Martin
