(Please respond directly, as I am not on this list.) I have 3 NICs in a single machine. Shaped something like this:
|-------------------| ISP1 -------|DHCP | | |------ Internal Network ISP2 -------|PPPoE | |-------------------| ISP2 is the new thing. Currently, all my traffic goes out to ISP1 thanks to the same old ipnat rule. If I set up a route for a range of addresses, they will take ISP2 out and be very happy. The problem is inbound. When I ping via ISP1 it works beautifully. But when I ping via ISP2, I don't get a response. I believe the echorep packet is lost because it is being routed according to the existing rules which don't give the machine a clue about ISP2. If I add a route to the pinging host which uses ISP2, then the pinging starts working there, but you guessed it, the ping via ISP1 stops working. - How can I have the outbound route setup based upon the inbound request? - Furthermore, how can I have that new route only affect that connection? Bonus Question: - How do I configure ipnat such that outbound traffic from my Internal Network is split between the two external interfaces? Yes, I know I can route it based on the origin machine on the Internal Network, and I know that I can set up the rules such that all traffic goes to a single external interface and when that interface is down, it will fail over to the secondary. What I want is outbound load balancing with failover capability.
