Hello !
First of all, my best wishes for the new year 1999.
I have some trouble with routing at my home system and to understand
the exemple in the AX25-HOWTO.
Here is what could be my future home configuration:
+----------------+ +-----------------+
| f6fgz.ampr.org | | Linux1 |
44.xx.xx.xx | 44.151.78.19 | | 192.151.78.1 |
----------------| eth0|-------------|eth0 |
ax0 ax1 etc | | | |
| ppp0 | | plip1 |
+----------------+ +-----------------+
| |
| |
| |
V |
modem +-----------------+
Internet | plip1 |
| |
| |
| Linux2 |
| 192.151.78.2 |
+-----------------+
I configurate f6fgz.ampr.org to be a Gateway/Router with IP masquerading
for the home network behind.
The Linux1 is also a Gateway/Router but without IP masquerading.
So, there may have no trouble to communicate between Linux1 and Linux2 by
doing a point-to-point routing via plip1.
So my problem is to add a net 44.0.0.0/8 on the Linux1/eth0 interface
with f6fgz.ampr.org as gateway.
That might be:
defining .. 192.151.78.0 homenet
44.0.0.0 hamnet
44.151.0.0 localhamnet
Linux2 .... ifconfig plip1 Linux2 pointopoint Linux1
route add default gw Linux1
Linux1 .... ifconfig plip1 Linux1 pointopoint Linux2
ifconfig eth0 Linux1 broadcast 192.151.78.0 netmask 255.255.255.0
route add -host Linux2 plip1
route add -host f6fgz.ampr.org eth0
route add default gw f6fgz.ampr.org
f6fgz .... ifconfig eth0 f6fgz.ampr.org broadcast 192.151.78.0 netmask 255.255.255.0
ifconfig ax0 f6fgz.amprg.org ... (simplified)
ifconfig ax1 f6fgz.amprg.org ... (simplified)
route add -net homenet netmask 255.255.255.0 eth0
route add -net hamnet netmask 255.0.0.0 ax0
route add -net localhamnet netmask 255.255.0.0 ax1
(default route created by ppp connection)
Please, comment or advise and if my configuration seems good, I may purchase
the NIC to build the network :-)
