If you do this with LRP 2.9.8, all you should need to do is
(1) edit the blocks in /etc/network.conf for the IF0_* variables so they
correctly reflect your eth0, and the IF1_* variables so they correctly
reflect your eth1.
(2) make similar blocks for IF2_* and IF3_*, which will reflect your eth2
and eth3.
(3) edit the HOST0_* block so it contains the address of the one host on the
"external" network.
(4) edit the NET0_* block so it contains information for the eth1 network.
(5) create NET1_* and NET2_* blocks with information for the eth2 and eth3
networks. Here and in step 5, be sure to set the MASQ interface to eth0.
(6) uncomment the line "#GW0_IPADDR=$HOST0_IPADDR" so the system will treat
the external host as its default gateway.
(7) Change other entries, such as the hostname and the DNS addresses, if
needed. These other changes are not specific to a 4-NIC setup, so I don't
detail them here, since there are plenty of HowTo-like documents you can
follow here.
I have to warn you that I have not actually run a 4-NIC setup here, so after
doing this, you may run into problems. (People have run such setups with LRP
2.9.x, but I don't know if anyone on this list has.) If you try this and
encounter problems, please feel free to post the details here (but not to me
personally, please - you'll note that I am responding to the posted message,
not the one you sent to me individually) and we can help you with
troubleshooting.
Also ... the procedure I described is not the only one that will (or should)
work for what you want. In particular, the use of the HOST0_* block is
geared to the external connection being point to point. You don't say what
your eventual Internet connection will be, so I can't guess if this is the
best approach for you to take (though it is fine for the simulated Internet
connection you describe).
Finally ... one problem you may run into stems from your using a
private-range address for the simulated "external" interface. Offhand, I
can't recall if LRP 2.9.8 firewalls private-range addresses on the interface
with the default gateway (as I believe Eiger and EigerStein do). If it does,
the quiuck solution is to use the interface and gateway addresses that you
would use were this router actually connected to your Internet connection.
