Now I want to tunnel between my 192.168.90.0/24 and a foreign
192.168.200.0/24. So I assigned 192.168.90.254/32 to lo2 and created
a static route.
So if you don't mind to go out with a source address of 192.168.90.1
instead of .254, what about this hack. What happens if you change the
route to
route change -net 192.168.200.0/24 192.168.90.2
(assuming the .2 is not on your local machine).
That works for the router, but for incoming packets on the internal
interface (from -net 192.168.90.0/24) the machine will send an ICMP
redirect to new router 192.168.90.2. Of course that is a black hole.
When I use the route to own interface address
(route change -net 192.168.200.0/24 192.168.90.1) it works, but also
for every incoming packet an ICMP redirect is sent. So that solution
is a workaround for short time only.
You can disable icmp redircts entirely but not sure if soemthing else
would stop working in your network topology then.
sysctl net.inet.ip.redirect
Does anybody have a better solution for source address selection? Am
I the only one with an IPSEC tunnel?
The best solution actually is to teach your application to bind for
this connection I guess instead of relying on any hack.
When it comes to the source address selection I am tempted to answer
with: I am willing to still allow this in 7 to not break production
setups but I am inclined to not change HEAD and keep the behavior
dropped there. See patch below, which basically is what you had with
the version check and the if (ia == NULL) check to not blindly overwrite
if we had found anything closer (untested).
Currently trying to discuss this with people.
can you assign a second FIB to handle this case?
