To give some perspective you can see the next example: https://github.com/elico/mwan-nft-lb-example
but you need to learn first how network namespaces works in linux. You will probably need to run squid in it’s own namespace which will be managed from the “main” or “root” namespace. It will probably be similar to a management interface and virtual routers on products like Palo Alto.

You can attach each modem to a network namespace and leave squid to do it’s thing with a static IP address.

Will this have a bad effect on Squid and traffic (I understand this does not cause Squid to restart)? What is my alternative? Thanks, Roee
