Hi, I have a box set up to distribute load over 4 satellite connections.
I cannot use Instant Messenger programs with it as it stands, I believe
that using iproute2, the path to the server is not being locked to one
interface, so the IM servers are getting user traffic from multiple IPs.
When I set just one default gateway, IMs work great. When I use the
scope global/nexthop method of load balancing, IM programs will keep
disconnecting and needing to reconnect. Is there a way (besides bonding)
to make IM traffic locked into a certain interface? I'd like to do it
balanced too since Yahoo webcams take up 30% of the bandwidth here, but
if I have to I guess I could forward all that traffic out one modem and
everything else out another. Thanks.
