Hello people, I have a little problem with one linux box that route some local IP networks between them and internet. An schema from the IP point of view is this: (3 uplinks) INTERNET <---> route <---> LANS From ethernet point of view is this: INET link 1 <---> <---> INET link 3 INET link 2 <---> router <---> LANs Physically there are 3 ethernet networks, one for the uplink 1, other for uplink 2, and the third is for the lans and the uplink 3. I forced to share the ethernet for the LANs and uplink 3. The router has 4 interfaces, eth1 for uplink 1, eth2 for uplink 2, eth3 for uplink 3 and eth0 for the LANs. The problem I have is that, without a constant time or reason, sometimes I detect latences between uplink 3 and the router, and other times between the router and LAN hosts. I think that I need to configure something in eth3 config files (/proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/eth3) to disallow local frames and allow only the router and uplink 3 gateway comunication, but I don't found anything that help me. I tried with arp_filter, rp_filter, and many of them, but without success (I don't found many documentation about it, and I review lartc and googled about that parameters). I think that only allowing arp traffic betwen eth3 and uplink 3 gateway (using arptables) will solve this, but I don't know if arptables will be the solution or not. Do anybody help me a bit?
