thanks Julian, but I think fwd in ipfw will use round robin mechanism instead of load balancing, which I prefer. or perhaps my knowledge about fwd is a little bit old maybe fwd can do the load balancing?
the problem is not load balancing the outgoing traffic, but the incoming traffic.

Is it ok for you to NAT the connecitons? You pretty much have to unless you can convince your ISPs to call you a peer (unlikely). Basically NAT both outgoing interfaces (see descriptions elsewhere on how to run natd on two interfaces), and then use the setfib rule in ipfw to select which routing table to use for each session and then set up the tables to use different outgoing interfaces. you could also use the 'fwd' ipfw rule instead of the setfib rule. thanks in advance ------------------------------- Bogi Aditya Sisfo - IMTelkom http://bogi.blog.imtelkom.ac.id _______________________________________________ freebsd-net@freebsd.org <mailto:freebsd-net@freebsd.org> mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-net To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-net-unsubscr...@freebsd.org <mailto:freebsd-net-unsubscr...@freebsd.org>" -- ------------------------------- Bogi Aditya Sisfo - IMTelkom http://bogi.blog.imtelkom.ac.id <http://bogi.blog.imtelkom.ac.id/>
