Got an example? My example looks like this:
[root@chywoon network-scripts]# /sbin/ip rule
0: from all lookup local
32765: from 194.39.143.232/29 lookup bogons
32766: from all lookup main
32767: from all lookup default
[root@chywoon network-scripts]# /sbin/ip route show table main
10.44.1.0/24 dev eth0 proto kernel scope link src 10.44.1.10
169.254.0.0/16 dev eth0 scope link
default proto kernel
nexthop via 10.44.1.1 dev eth0 weight 1
nexthop via 10.44.1.3 dev eth0 weight 1
nexthop via 10.44.1.11 dev eth0 weight 1
[root@chywoon network-scripts]# /sbin/ip route show table bogons
194.39.143.232/29 dev eth0 scope link
10.44.1.0/24 dev eth0 scope link
127.0.0.0/8 dev lo scope link
default via 10.44.1.3 dev eth0
[root@chywoon network-scripts]# /sbin/ip route show table diogel
10.44.1.0/24 dev eth0 scope link
127.0.0.0/8 dev lo scope link
default via 10.44.1.11 dev eth0
its incomplete... when I get my IP allocation from diogel, it
will have an extra rule, plus an extra route in the diogel
table to match whats already there for bogons.
The situation is a web server with several virtual hosts some of
which are accessible through one gateway to a certain provider
and some of which are accessible through a different gateway to
a different provider. In each case the IPs depend upon the providers
and I plan to pair them off such that there will be one IP per
provider for each virtual host and use DNS load balancing
between them.
I also expect to be expanding this system in the future to have
further providers attached to it, hence more rules. I may also
want to use separate physical interfaces for them as well at
some stage. Currently each provider connects through a separate
gateway box onto a local lan to which the web server is attached.
There is a further example in the Linux Advanced Routing HOWTO
where the providers are on different interfaces (see the url:
http://lartc.org/howto/lartc.rpdb.multiple-links.html)
I can currently do everything with the standard config files except
the adding of the rules.
Updating this to FC3 since its still outstanding, also attaching an example of what the proposed ifup-rules script could look like. The ifdown-rules script would be identical aside from swapping the add to del in the ip rule command line. The scripts could be hooked into ifup-post and ifdown-post at a suitable point (which is what I've done on my system). Created attachment 110546 [details]
Example ifup-rules file
