I am trying to figure out how to do this: I've tried the howto but just become
hopelessly confused. (I don' think this is a problem in the howto, it's a problem
with my comprehension.)
Anyway, here's the scenario:
Internal Linux Router/ 4 - T1 circuits to Another
Networks Firewall the Internet Internet
circuit
| | | | | | | | |
|
+-----------------+ | | +------------+------+------+------+---------------+
--------------------+ |
------------------------+
There are really three internal networks for various departments. The router/firewall
will have 4 NICs.
For one of the internal departments, I want the router to load-balance outbound
packets among those 4 T1 circuits, which will be connected to Cisco (I think)
routers. I want the other departments to all share that other Internet circuit.
And I need the ability to change this policy at will, so I can let other departments
use the combined T1s as needed.
I think I can figure out how to route based on the source network, that all makes
sense in the how-to. I can set up different routing tables based on the source IP
address/network. It's the load balancing that is making me crazy - how do I put
together a load-balancing mechanism for those combined T1s that makes sense?
Any advice or pointers?
thanks
