Hello,
Mato Vidovic a écrit :
I have a need to perform TOS based traffic routing.
That means I have two interfaces (say eth0 and eth1) to backbone
and I need to route the real-time critical
IP traffic over eth1 and the remaining IP traffic over eth0.
After a lot of experimenting I came to the conclusion that something
like the following would do:
# iptables -t mangle -A POSTROUTING -m tos --tos 16 -j ROUTE --oif eth1
# iptables -t mangle -A POSTROUTING -m tos --tos !16 -j ROUTE --oif eth0
Why not just use the TOS selection feature in advanced routing
(involving routing rules and alternate routing tables) ?
Something like :
ip rule add tos 16 lookup tos16 priority 100
ip route add default dev eth1 table tos16
Unfortunately the Linux box says:
"No chain/target/match by that name"
The kernel I use is 2.6.18, iptables version is the last debian
stable version 1.2.11.
Any idea what is wrong here (am I missing something in the
configuration, or a library, or am I completely wrong maybe...)?
As Edvin Seferovic wrote, the kernel part of the ROUTE target is not
included in the mainstream kernel yet. You can add it to your kernel
source tree with the patch-o-matic-ng a build a ROUTE-capable kernel.
