Hi, I have two modems than can be connected to the Internet. Since there can be only one default route, I'd like to split the traffic by protocol types; eg: http on one line, ftp + smtp on another line. I think ipchains (-j REDIRECT) can do that. Unfortunately, I couldn't find nice examples on using ipchains redirection. Even if splitting the traffic can only be done on certain protocols and on particular hosts, that would be fine; other protocols would use the default route, and ftp+smtp would use the route directed by ipchains. Question is: how can I do that.
I think IP alias would help. Basically, my need is to have a "privileged" modem line that runs on a single Ethernet (bus via a gateway that has two modems). Thanks in advance, Oki
