Hi,
I have a testing multihome setup, with the default gateway being one of
the links and using policy routing to honor requests for a specific
link. Everything works as expected when I request a specific IP to bind
to. But if I request a specific interface things fall apart in ways that
I can not explain:
default gw (WORKS)
----------
rabbit@Thesaurus:~$ ping -c 1 yahoo.com
PING yahoo.com (216.109.112.135) 56(84) bytes of data.
64 bytes from w2.rc.vip.dcn.yahoo.com (216.109.112.135): icmp_seq=1
ttl=48 time=142 ms
request IP on same link as default gw (WORKS)
-------------------------------------
rabbit@Thesaurus:~$ ping -I 192.168.9.102 -c 1 yahoo.com
PING yahoo.com (66.94.234.13) from 192.168.9.102 : 56(84) bytes of data.
64 bytes from w2.rc.vip.scd.yahoo.com (66.94.234.13): icmp_seq=1 ttl=47
time=176 ms
request IP on secondary link (WORKS)
----------------------------
rabbit@Thesaurus:~$ ping -I 172.16.0.2 -c 1 yahoo.com
PING yahoo.com (216.109.112.135) from 172.16.0.2 : 56(84) bytes of data.
64 bytes from w2.rc.vip.dcn.yahoo.com (216.109.112.135): icmp_seq=1
ttl=47 time=146 ms
request interface of default gw link (WORKS)
------------------------------------
rabbit@Thesaurus:~$ ping -I eth1 -c 1 yahoo.com
PING yahoo.com (66.94.234.13) from 192.168.9.102 eth1: 56(84) bytes of data.
64 bytes from w2.rc.vip.scd.yahoo.com (66.94.234.13): icmp_seq=1 ttl=47
time=176 ms
request secondary interface (FAILS)
---------------------------
rabbit@Thesaurus:~$ ping -I eth0 -c 1 yahoo.com
PING yahoo.com (216.109.112.135) from 192.168.9.102 eth0: 56(84) bytes
of data.
From 172.16.0.2 icmp_seq=1 Destination Host Unreachable
I went over the setup again and again, but I can't figure out why the
last ping attempt fails. Any pointers are welcome!
Thanks
Peter
Here is the setup:
ip addr
