-------------------- ---------------------- | SDSL 1 | | SDSL 2 | -------------------- ---------------------- \ / eth1 \ / eth2 \ / *---*---*---*---*---*---* | Linux Router/Server | *---*---*---*---*---*---* | eth0 | group A group B 192.168.0.1-.50 192.168.0.51-.100 I am trying to set up a network that can split the 2 local groups to use the two SDSL line, that is group A will only use SDSL line 1 and group B will only use SDSL line 2. I have read Linux Advanced Routing and nano.txt by julian. I have set it up in and it worked but not the way it should as what i like in the above diagram. It worked in loadbalancing (equalize) only. I also have a squid proxy set up as transparent. would this be a problem when the groups will be splitted in accessing the internet? here is my config: ip rule add prio 50 table main ip route del default table main ip rule add prio 201 from $SDSL1_NET table 201 ip route add default via $SDSL1_GW dev eth1 src $SDSL_IP proto static table 201 ip route append prohibit default table 201 metric 1 proto static ip rule add prio 202 from $SDSL2_NET table 202 ip route add default via $SDSL2_GW dev eth2 src $SDSL_IP proto static table 202 ip route append prohibit default table 202 metric 1 proto static ip rule add prio 222 table 222 ip route add default table 222 proto static \ nexthop via $SDSL1_GW dev eth1 weight 1 \ nexthop via $SDSL2_GW dev eth2 weight 1 $IPTABLES -A FORWARD -i eth1 -o eth0 -m state --state ESTABLISHED,RELATED -j ACCEPT $IPTABLES -A FORWARD -i eth2 -o eth0 -m state --state ESTABLISHED,RELATED -j ACCEPT $IPTABLES -A FORWARD -i eth0 -o eth1 -j ACCEPT $IPTABLES -A FORWARD -i eth0 -o eth2 -j ACCEPT $IPTABLES -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o eth1 -j SNAT --to $SDSL1_GW $IPTABLES -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o eth2 -j SNAT --to $SDSL2_GW $IPTABLES -t nat -A PREROUTING -i eth0 -p tcp --dport 80 -j REDIRECT --to-port 3128 Load balancing works well, and everything seems to be OK. But i want to accomplish the said above diagram? Im not sure it the setup will work with transparent proxy. Any ideas? ================= Charles J.
