I have a LAN that uses a T1 for Internet connectivity. The service includes
a firewall managed by the telco that provides MPLS connectivity to remote
offices, NAT rules to destinations inside the LAN, and a few other things.
I am trying to boost the Internet bandwidth while avoiding the cost of
having to install another T1 circuit. A Comcast cable connection has
recently been installed for this purpose.
Ideally, I'd like to drop in a Shorewall box between the LAN and the managed
firewall without having to change anything. It should be invisible to the
clients and to the managed firewall. However, the bulk of the outgoing
connections (from LAN clients) should be routed out the Comcast interface.
I've configured Shorewall to use dual ISPs before and I've used it with two
interfaces linked together in a bridge, but I haven't done both of these
things at the same time. Any tips, tricks, or gotchas? Or maybe is there a
better way to accomplish the goals? Thank you.
