See http://ebtables.sourceforge.net/br_fw_ia/br_fw_ia.html Figure 3a If you can use two different source IPs, you could probably bind them to each interface and then you wouldn't need policy routing at all to achieve your objective. > sudo ip rule add fwmark 1 table 1 prio 1 > sudo ip rule add fwmark 2 table 2 prio 2 > > sudo ip route add table 1 nexthop via 192.168.0.1 dev ath0 > sudo ip route add table 2 nexthop via 192.168.0.1 dev eth0 > > -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netfilter" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
