Multihomed box

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

 



Assume a box with 2 NIC's connected to 2 networks - 10.0.0.0/24 and
192.168.168.0/24.

What determines the source IP address of a packet sent from this box to
either of its attached networks? Is it eth0?

How can I influence the source address of a packet destined for either
network to show its source to be from that network? i.e. All packets
originating on this box going to the 192.168.168.0 network show it coming
from that network, and all packets destined for the 10.0.0.0 network show it
coming from that network? 

The reason I ask is because I always assumed the packet would have a source
address closest to the destination. I discovered however that this is not
the case.
