Hello, I have recently discovered shorewall and consider myself not a newbie but not a pro in networking technology either. I've set up my own firewall using shorewall on Debian and it works fine.
- eth0 connects to my local network - eth1 connects to my cable modem - eth2 connects to my dsl modem (ppp0) - eth3 connects to my wireless network - eth4 is currently not in use I configured shorewall according to the official MultiISP "how to" and basically it works fine. Except when ppp0 gets disconnected and reconnected by the provider the routing tables are updated (so I guess) and the system uses ppp0 as default route, even though eth1/cable still works fine. Perhaps I missunderstood something and am missing something in my configuration (I guess I DO need a script monitoring for failover and disable the overriding of the routes somehow...) I'd be happy about any hints and tipps how to achieve a simple failover setup where eth1 is my primary connection and ppp0 only kicks in when cable really does not work. I've attached my shorewall dump, I hope this is correct. Thanks Sebastian
