Multirouting 2 ISP with public addresses

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



List :

I have a similar setup to this gentleman:

eth0 connected with the LAN
eth1 connected with the internet across ISP1
eth2 connected with the internet acorss ISP2

Although I can find a thousand examples on how to do this with NAT, there doesnt seem to be anyone wanting to do it with real IP addresses, or not that I have found in 3 days of searching.

I read the following link :

Seems to be just what I need, except I do not wish to load balance or have servers avaiable everywhere, or have redundancy, but just for the box to do what i guess would be called source routing. My delimma is that living in a remote town bandwidth costs are moderate to high. I have a 6 meg bonded T-1 setup on a cisco 3640 router that we outgrew quickly. A DS-3 connection where I live would of cost nearly 15K / month because we live near no POP.So we put some fiber up, and needless to say we have 10 / mbit with the capability to turn it up as needed at a much cheaper cost. The problem is we are having to eat the monthly charges for our current bandwith and would like to utilize it for CPE. Im pretty sure with the research I have done that this is possible to put on our current linux router, but I must be missing a key somewhere, and I would like a fresh look on the problem.

Here is what I wish to do.

eth1 is connected to my 6mbit line thru the FE0/0 port on the router.(192.168.200.2)
eth2 is connected to the fiber transceiver to 10 mbit (192.168.252.2)
eth0 is connected to my lan. (12.150.243.129)

I have route statements in the 3640 that route ALL traffic for the public addresses thru a private subnet
ip route 12.37.169.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.200.2
ip route 12.150.225.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.200.2
ip route 12.150.243.128 255.255.255.224 192.168.200.2
ip route 12.150.243.160 255.255.255.240 192.168.200.2
ip route 12.150.243.176 255.255.255.240 192.168.200.2
ip route 12.150.243.192 255.255.255.192 192.168.200.2
ip route 12.175.45.0 255.255.255.128 192.168.200.2

The linux box in turn hands it off to various other parts and routers

What I would like to do is throw the following 4 Class C addresses onto eth2 and have them route according to what network.
70.158.60.0
70.158.61.0
70.158.62.0
70.158.63.0
For instance if I assign a CPE an Ip address in the 12.150 range, i wish for all that traffic to route out eth1 to the wireline
If I assign a CPE IP in the 70.158 ranges, I would like it to route out eth2

The router on the other side of the fiber net has the exact same routes for the 70.158 ranges as the ones on my wireline with the exception
they are routing to 192.168.252.2 instead of 192.168.200.2

Ive seen suggestions on marking packets, setting up 2 routing tables, and others, but i have had limited success on getting this going.

Could anyone provide some thoughts or input or an example? It would be greatly appreciated. If I havent been descriptive enough, will provide more details

Thanks in advance
