I have run versions of lrp/leaf dating back more than a decade on a variety of 
hardware. Recently I ported my router setup with the latest uclibc version from 
a Soekris net4801 to a Soekris net6501 in order to accommodate more bandwidth. 
The new box has an extra port. My question is how to use the extra port on the 
local network? 

My three-interfaces setup is almost standard, just using 192.169.1.253 instead 
of 254 for the router (I'll probably change it back - in my old slow DSL setup 
the DSL modem was fixed at 192.168.1.254 so I couldn't use that IP for the Leaf 
box).  I use the box as a router connecting the internet to a local network 
192.168.1.x and a dmz 192.168.2.x

In the interfaces file I have:

#internet (with way to get to cable modem)

auto eth0
iface eth0 inet dhcp
up ip route add 192.168.100.1 dev eth0

#local network
auto eth1
iface eth1 inet static
address 192.168.1.253
netmask 255.255.255.0
broadcast 192.168.1.255

#dmz
auto eth2
iface eth2 inet static
address 192.168.2.254
netmask 255.255.255.0
broadcast 192.168.2.255

The extra port is eth3. Could someone point me to the way to use eth3 on the 
local network? Just need a nudge in the right direction. If I get the 
interfaces file set up I think I can handle Shorewall.

Thanks,

Tim Wegner
