[opensuse] Is there an opensource equivalent of route sentry?
Hi, I still haven't succeeded in routing my local and international accounts but Route Sentry apparently performs just that. Unfortunately it's only available for windows. Does somebody know of an open source linux equivalent? Thanks Dave P -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Hi Dave, it looks like "Route Sentry" is a sort of traffic director? What is it you expect it to do for you? Using two ADSL links is no problem under Linux. /Per -- Per Jessen, Zürich (7.9°C) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

I've set up two pppoe dsl devices, one for local internet traffic - 41.0.0.0 to 41.96.0.0 and 192.0.0.0/8 (not quite sure how to specify the 41 route) and either eth0 or dsl1 for all other internet traffic. I've played around with /etc/sysconfig/network/routes but I can't get it right.

So all traffic to those addresses should go via dsl0 ? I think the 41 routes would be: 41.0.0.0.0/11 (41.0.0.0 - 41.31.255.255) 41.32.0.0.0/11 (41.32.0.0 - 41.63.255.255) 41.64.0.0.0/11 (41.64.0.0 - 41.95.255.255) 41.96.0.0/16 (41.96.0.0 - 41.96.255.255) It's a rough guess, I'm no expert at subnet masks.
and either eth0 or dsl1 for all other internet traffic. I've played around with /etc/sysconfig/network/routes but I can't get it right. Thanks
Assuming your DSL links are up all the time, you could just make them static routes. If not, I think you need something like /etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-dslX.route, which will establish the routes when the interface is available. /Per -- Per Jessen, Zürich (7.9°C) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Ah, you're right, it is 'ifroute-dsl0', sorry. I can never remember those names.

If you're letting dsl1 (international) set your default route, you don't need a default route in the config. /Per -- Per Jessen, Zürich (9.1°C) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Whatever I do the last interface started dsl1 takes all of the traffic. If I stop dsl1 then dsl0 takes over as the default route and I have to either start dsl1 or stop dsl0.

The only place with a default route specified that I can see is eth0 and if I use yast network settings I can only set the default route for eth0 which is the address of the adsl router.

My guess is that your ppp options also contain a 'defaultroute' statement, probably on both devices. You'll find these in /etc/ppp/ - I think you can have device-specific option by using options.device. You can use 'nodefaultroute' to disable changing of the default route. /Per -- Per Jessen, Zürich (9.6°C) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Okay, just read your previous posting on that topic, and I've also just checked YaST on my own box. YaST doesn't seem to allow for mulitple ppp device with different options, but /etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-dslX does.

PPPD_OPTIONS='nodefaultroute' prevents dsl0 from staying up at all. There must be a way of doing this but I can only spend so much time. If route sentry can do it on windows (route sentry was recommended by my ip for this exact purpose.

What happens? Are there any error messages in the log? 'nodefaultroute' has no influence on the sttaus of the link, so something else obviously went wrong.

Of course there is a way of doing it - but it does require some configuration and some trial and error when the exact configuration is not known beforehand. /Per -- Per Jessen, Zürich (7.0°C) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Although the log doesn't say anything, it dies silently as soon as it's up. By the way the routing table works with my wireless card wlan0 and all local sites are routed to it but unfortunately my motherboard died and I'm typing this from another computer that I put my hard drive in and I can't install the wireless card as it might mess up their vista.

Hmmm, judging from the log it is also looks as if it it never got an IP address assigned etc. I wonder if PPPD_OPTIONS overrides all the pppd options ... AFAIK, the main pppd options are from /etc/ppp/options, but I had expected smpppd to consider PPPD_OPTIONS as an override, and combine them with the default. I'm pretty certain the key thing here is getting your two pppd daemons started, but each with the right set of options. /Per -- Per Jessen, Zürich (8.1°C) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Good.

Good. But you said the interface doesn't stay up?

Hi, just to let everybody know that I've solved my international and local internet routing dilemma. I discovered rp-pppoe and installed it, setup a pppoe connection for my local account and then discovered that when it (ppp0) was up it didn't become the default device so I used ip route add to "address range I want routed through ppp0" dev ppp0 to add all the address ranges I wanted to go through ppp0 and with the use of wireshark tested it and hey presto my local (South African) internet addresses were routed through my local only account and international traffic used eth0 through the international account. I'm still not sure how to get this to all happen automatically but I've made a script so far to add the routes. Thanks Per for your help Regards Dave P -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Hi, I still haven't succeeded in routing my local and international accounts but Route Sentry apparently performs just that. Unfortunately it's only available for windows. Does somebody know of an open source linux equivalent?

I looked at shorewall when I first needed the different routes and it looked like an overkill but when I have time I'll read through the reams of information and see if I can make it work. With my luck I'll find it only works with physical devices and not pppoe.

What makes you think that ? "network interfaces" are just a higher level of abstraction.. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Not being that familiar with networking, I put my wireless card in my box and set it up. It hasn't connected to the router properly yet but I changed the routing table to route via wlan0 instead of dsl0 and the routing table now works. I can't connect to any local Internet sites within the routing table address ranges assigned to wlan0. I suspect if I assign dsl0 to wlan0 it will work.
