Hello RedHat's, i'm running different RedHat versions (from 6.2 to now 7.2) on several firewalls and on some of them i need to set proxy_arp on the network interfaces. For example:
Internet | cisco router (x.x.x.105) | eth0 (x.x.x.106) | +----- eth1 (x.x.x.106) -- webserver etc (x.x.x.107/8/9) - DMZ | eth2 (192.168.x.x) - Intranet => for this setup to work i have to set proxy_arp = 1 on eth0 and eth1, which does work fine btw. So now my question: which is the recommended way of doing this? I'm currently setting this in a /sbin/ifup-local script, but IMHO this should be better set in ifcfg-eth?, as this is a device specific setting. --- /sbin/ifup-local #!/bin/sh if [ -f /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/eth0/proxy_arp ]; then echo 1 >/proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/eth0/proxy_arp fi if [ -f /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/eth2/proxy_arp ]; then echo 1 >/proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/eth2/proxy_arp fi --- Any suggestions for a better way?
