Balanced Routes

Hi,

If you want to make your linux machine balance the load of your internet access, you can use ip route.

Let's use this script

-----------cut here--------------

#!/bin/bash

#IPs of the def gateways

IP1=192.168.1.1

IP2=192.168.2.1

REDLOCAL=10.1.1.0/24

IPLOCAL=10.1.1.1

# NICs

IF1=eth0

IF2=eth1

ip rule add from $IP1 lookup T1

ip route add $REDLOCAL via $IPLOCAL table T1

ip route add 0/0 via $IP1 table T1

ip route add from $IP2 lookup T2

ip route add $REDLOCAL via $IPLOCAL table T2

ip route add 0/0 via $IP1 table T1

ip route default equalize nexthop via $IP1 dev $IF1 nexthop via $IP2 dev $IF2

that should do the job, off course make the changes on the variables according to your needs.

regards.
