Hi folks...
I am just wondering, is it possible to do this kind of thing with RH 6.2
(kernel 2.2.16)?
I have 3 cable modems. I connect each to one NIC, thus in this computer I
have 4 NICs. 3 for outbound connection to the Internet and the fourth NIC is
given the address 192.168.1.1 (for private LAN). The rough figure:
+--------------+
| Internet |
+------+-------+
|
+-------------------+-------------------+
| | |
+------+-------+ +------+-------+ +------+-------+
| eth0 | | eth1 | | eth2 |
| 202.155.15.1 | | 202.155.16.2 | | 202.155.17.3 |
+--------------+ +--------------+ +--------------+
--------------------------------------------------------
Some kind of NAT
I'm thinking of just a simple:
# ipchains -A forward -s 192.168.1/0 -j MASQ
--------------------------------------------------------
+--------------+
| eth4 |
| 192.168.1.1 |
+------+-------+
|
+------+-------+
| switch |
+--------------+
Currently I have eth0 and eth4 in the figure (no eth1 and eth2 YET). I use
ipchains to masq all outgoing traffic from 192.168.1.0 network.
Is it possible to simply let the system know, "Hey, there is 3 highway that
you can choose to go to certain destination. If highway #1 is busy, try the
second, and if the second is not available too, try the third, and etc.".
Some kind of "load balancing" that I want to achieve.
Is there any solution? URLs that I can read?
Thanks a lot...
