Re: IP ranges with linux firewalls?

Jan,

You could try IP aliasing, like so:

Assuming eth0 is your ext interface and its ip is 1.2.4.5 and you want to 
bind to another ip on that range ie: 1.2.4.10 - you can do this:

#ifconfig eth0 1.2.4.5 netmask <netmask> up

#ifconfig eth0:1 1.2.4.10 netmask <netmask> up

#ifconfig

you should see two IP's bound to the same interface..

repeat if you want to do that internally.

HTH,

Nigel.
