I just found out that squid is removing the marking on the packet:
This is what I am doing:

(1) I marked packets coming from 10.0.0.120 to port 80, with "mark1"
(mark1 corresponds to isp1)
(2) I added a route rule which says that all packets having mark 1
will be routed through ISP 1

But the packets are not routing via ISP1

When I disable squid redirection rule in IPTables (post 80 redirection
to 3128 squid), the markings are maintained and packets route via
ISP1.

Now the big question is why is squid removing the marking ??

Because the packets STOP at their destination software.
Normally the destination is a web server. When you NAT (redirect) a
packet
to Squid it STOPS there and gets read by Squid instead of passing on to
the
web server.

IF Squid needs to fetch the HTTP object requested from the network a
brand
new TCP connection will be created only from Squid to the web server.

And how can this be prevented ??

By not intercepting packets. As you already noticed.


Squid offers alternatives, tcp_outgoing_address has already been
mentioned.
tcp_outgoing_tos is an alternative that allows you to mark packets
leaving
Squid.

I tried " tcp_outgoing_address " by adding the following to squid.conf

acl ip1 myip 10.0.0.120
acl ip2 myip 10.0.0.121
acl ip3 myip 10.0.0.122
tcp_outgoing_address 10.0.0.120 ip1
tcp_outgoing_address 10.0.0.121 ip2
tcp_outgoing_address 10.0.0.122 ip3

Restarted squid, but no help.

Pls help how I can get the route rules to work.

Simple requirement:
If packets comes from src=10.0.0.120, forward it via ISP-1
If packets comes from src=10.0.0.121, forward it via ISP-2
If packets comes from src=10.0.0.122, forward it via ISP-3
And so forth.

Thx in advance.
Vai

To prevent the first (default) one being used  you may need to do:

 tcp_outgoing_address 10.0.0.120 ip1 !ip2 !ip3
 tcp_outgoing_address 10.0.0.121 ip2 !ip1 !ip3
 tcp_outgoing_address 10.0.0.122 ip3 !ip1 !ip2


I do not have 5 real interfaces for 5 ISPs.
And I believe virtual interfaces will not work in this scenario.

Any other option pls ??

Thx & regards,
Vai


hello Val,
look to your routers to make this decision. You can handout default gateway info to your clients or routers
if you don't have 3 squid boxes[ my recommendation] then
i would try 3 nics
if thats not available then you need 3 vlans.
