I think I have a handle on the lan, dmz interfaces and maybe even the fxp0

then carp the san0 interfaces,
No, don't do this. This would be like plugging a phone line and
two modems into a switch.
ok, scratch that idea. Are there any csu/dsu units out there that can
take the incoming t1 signal and then output directly to an ethernet
interface on the obsd box or do they all have to output via v.35 or 8
position cable to a 'standard' router (a'la cisco etc.....) before
coming into the openbsd machine? Even a cheap router that could do all
of the signal conversion (I'm looking over adtran's site now...... any
recommendations) so that i don't need 3 (csu/dsu---router---obsd
firewall) machines to terminate the t1.
Here is what I'm hoping to accomplish in order of priority:
You're describing something which is normally handled by speaking
BGP with your provider(s).
They aren't able to do bgp, as far as I know, as they are getting their
connections from completely different isps, don't have an AS number and
I'm not sure if this matters or not but the second wan connection is
just 256k off of a t1 that provides phone service. That's why I had to
play the dns short ttl game. Thus far however it has worked fairly well.
Thanks for the replies.
