Hi, I have emailed the list before (email can be found here http://mailman.ds9a.nl/pipermail/lartc/2005q4/017220.html) regarding this matter. Basically, I am trying to set up a router for my college, to route conference guests over an adsl line, and students over an academic connection. I've looked at man ip(8), and a few examples, and think I have a configuration that will work, but was wondering if somebody would mind taking a look at it before I implement it (the system is currently live, so I want to minimize downtime while implementing this change). The configuration I have devised below is based on the tutorial here (http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/answers.php?action=viewarticle&arti d=490). The setup I have is shown below, along with the commands I think I will need to run to set up routing correctly: -------------------------------------- | eth2 eth0 | ----- | 192.168.7.253 ---> 192.168.100.253 | ISP_1 ----- | |------| 255.255.252.0 255.255.255.0 |-------| | | | | | | | | LAN | | ROUTER | | WEB | | | | | ISP_2 | | | |------| eth1 eth3 |-------| | ----- | 192.168.3.253 ----> 192.168.20.253 | ----- | 255.255.252.0 255.255.255.0 | -------------------------------------- echo "ISP_1" >> /etc/iproute2/rt_tables echo "ISP_2" >> /etc/iproute2/rt_tables ip route add 192.168.4.0/22 dev eth2 src 192.168.7.253 table ISP_1 ip route add default via 192.168.100.253 table ISP_1 ip route add 192.168.0.0/22 dev eth1 src 192.168.3.253 table ISP_2 ip route add default via 192.168.20.253 table ISP_2 ip rule add from 192.168.7.253 table ISP_1 ip rule add from 192.168.3.253 table ISP_2 If anyone could advise as to whether this is correct, or if there is something I have completely missed or overlooked, or interpreted incorrectly, it would be greatly appreciated.
