I have a pc with debian 6 (without GUI) installed on it and want to use it as server at home. It has 2 ethernet nics. Now i want to configure the routing process. Searched internet for a long time found something but couldn't get it work.
View 8 RepliesI'm trying to work out how to route all traffic destined for the internet from all devices connected to eth0 to a wireless router access point via wlan0 on my Slackware box. I also have dhcpd providing ip addresses on the same subnet to any device connected to both eth0 and wlan0.
Diagram:
Code:
____________ ____________
[ ]=============> (wifi) ==============>[ Router / ]
|Workstations| __________ |Access Point| 192.168.2.1
[____________]==>(eth0)==>[ ]<==(wlan0)==>[____________]
192.168.2.253| Server |192.168.2.254
[__________]
If I connect to the router/access point via wireless or directly to the Server via a crossover cable I can obtain an ip address from dhcpd, so that works. As far as I can see I just need to how to route between eth0 and wlan0 then I can provide internet access to those devices!
ifconfig:
Code:
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr **:**:**:**:**:**
inet addr:192.168.2.253 Bcast:192.168.2.255 Mask:255.255.255.0

i have a Server, which has 2 nics installed. Each of those is connected to a router, which is connected to internet. On the server, i have apache, maillserver and im-server running. On the other hand, also squid, dansguardian and clam are running. so now: via eth0 i would like to have just the traffic, which is requested from outside (the big bad internet..) to my server (apache, mail, etc). via eth1 i would like to have all OUTGOING (also to the big bad internet) from the server, which is requested by a internal client. And of course all requests to my own server
both nics shall route their traffic to their own router. For better comprehension please consult the enclosed graph. Until now, i did not find a good solution, the default route is set to the traffic from eth0, if not, no external request will find back to a client do you have a idea how to handle this the easiest way?
I have configured CentOS 5.4 as a router/firewall (iptables) as such, and it is working fine:
eth0 - Public IP/Intenet, DHCP
eth1 - 192.168.0.0 internal "net1"
eth2 -10.0.0.0 internal "net2"
I want to add a fourth NIC, eth3, which will be assigned its own Public IP/Internet address (thru DHCP; my ISP provides two). The purpose it to route all net1's internet-bound traffic through eth0, and all of net2's internet traffic to eth3. This allows me to use one router/firewall machine instead of two separate ones. I anticipate that without some specific routing instructions, the default route will be eth0 for all net1 and net2 internet traffic (eth3 will be ignored).
I thought of using just one NIC (eth0) but create an alias (eth0:0), but IPtables (and possible DHCP) can't differentiate between the two (besides, nics are inexpensive). Is there a way to do this through routing commands, or even use iptables prerouting/forward functions (or is using iptables problematic)?
I have a firewall, this consists of three NIC's:
Code: eth0[192.168.0.2] eth1[192.168.1.2] and eth2[10.10.165.2]
I am trying to ping eth0 from eth2, but I am not able to succesfully get a response from pinging the device, I am using:
Code: ping 192.168.0.2 -I eth2
I have tried to insert routing data into the routing table, but it still doesn't work
I have attached a diagram to show the layout, but basically I have a server that has 2 nics. I use NIC1 for the server and its services. Im using VirtualBox to run VMs and want to use NIC2 for the VMs exclusively and I want the VMs on a different network completely from the host.Ive tried setting up NIC2 on the other network but I end up with networking problems on network1. Also I cant figure out how to tell VirtualBox to bind to the host NIC2.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have 2 x PCs and a NAS. Both PCs have 2x NICS. PC connectivity to Internet is via an ADSL router. Current config: Thus far (by choice) I've used static IPs in the 192.168.168.x range for my internal network, connecting all PCs and NAS via a jumbo frame enabled gigabit switch. This has facilitated moving data between the PCs and the NAS at high-speed. As both PCs also required Internet access from time to time, both are also connected to the ADSL router using the 2nd NIC and using subnet 192.168.1.x. I'm sure some of you are shaking your heads by now, but it works well and has been entirely hassle free.
However, I've an app running on the NAS that I'm keen to get Internet connected also. As my existing network devices are not using DHCP I figured the simplest method would be to change my ADSL router configuration such that it is in the same 192.168.168.x subnet, change its DHCP server settings to serve IPs in the same subnet (but in a restricted range I know won't cause any conflicts with the static IPs) and problem solved. On changing the ADSL router confiruration with all machines already booted up and configured as described above, everything worked. All devices could see one another, and access the Internet. On later rebooting the system this no longer works
- Internet access is fine but PCs don't see one another or the NAS. If I disconnect the ADSL Router from the PCs then all devices see one another again.
- Does having 2x NICS on a single device each assigned unique IPs in the same subnet create an issue and can it be overcome? I'd like to overcome it because making one of my PCs the gateway forces me to have it on anytime another device needs access.
- If I'm forced to use Internet connection sharing with one PC on the network connected to the router, how do I best configure this?
- One of the things I need to retain is gigabit connectivity between the PCs and PCs and the NAS (currently achieved by 192.168.168.x subnet being linked via gigabit switch).
My brother has a Ubuntu server attached to a LAN with Windows PCs. I set up an openVPN tun service on the server, let's call this VPN1, so that I can connect remotely from my Ubuntu desktop. The server has one NIC and the LAN has a router that is the gateway to the internet.
My brother would like to remotely access his windows network when roaming with his Windows laptop.
Therefore, I would like to set up a second VPN service, this time tap, that is bridged with his LAN. Let's call this VPN2.
The LAN subnet is 192.168.1.0/24. The internet gateway is 192.168.1.1
The NIC has a fixed IP set by the router of 192.168.1.150
How do I set up VPN2 so as not to trash VPN1? That is, if I bridge eth0 with tap0 how will that impact VPN1's tun0 that is using eth0? Do I need a separate NIC for the VPN2 bridge?
I am considering moving to a software (ebox/pfSense/Zeroshell etc) based router.
It fits well to have 1 NIC connecting to your modem & the other to your switch & network. It seems to make sense it is more secure, but is it?
If I assign the 1 NIC in my router 2 IPs, a subnet for the modem and a subnet for the LAN, how is the different?
I can't think exactly what it is. I am no network guru and probably missing something down at a lower networking level, but for a home router, does 1 or 2 NICs make any difference?
My server has 2 network cards. I have SLES 10 SP2 installed on this server. I had configured Ethernet bonding on this machine using 2 NICs. Now I want to assign 2 different IP's to 2 different NICs. I am able to do this without any issue using yast. ifconfig command shows that eth0 has 192.168.1.10 and eth1 has 192.168.1.12. Rest all networking details are same (netmask, gateway, DNS)
Strange thing: When I unplug only eth0, (eth1 is plugged in correctly) I am not able to ping any IP.
If I unplug only eth1, (eth0 is plugged in) I am able to ping both IP's.

My PC has 2 NICs Eth0 has 3 virtual NICs:
My every PC (172.16.1.1 to 172.16.1.4) has installed webmin and listen on port 10000
When browse from LAN http://202.1.2.3:10000 .. it goes to the webmin page of 202.1.2.1 .. why?
This problem ONLY occurs when browse the site from LAN! and it works properly if we access it from Internet.
Ok so I'm gonna try and explain this easily. I installed 11.04 32bit on an older HP P4 machine. Boots up and goes to classic desktop.. But networking looks like a wifi devices rather than a wired connection. I installed another NIC rather than the onboard but had the same result.. I also tried yet another PCI NIC and a USB NIC with the same result. I also tried to set my connection to manual and give myself a static IP, but had no such luck.
I know my internet connection works because I'm on another machine typing this to you all.. All the NICs also work in W7 on the dualboot setup I did.
I have 2 NICs on my ubuntu server.... eth0 has its IP address....but eth1 doesnt.
How do I assign an IP address to eth1 using only commands on the command line?
And I need it to be permanently...
I have a MB with 2 NICs and on 1 I would like to have a static IP, on the other a DHCP for a local network.The problem is the DHCP provided gateway is made default vs the one for the static IP and resolv.conf is overwritten.Any suggestions how could this be resolved? I can tweak both the DHCP server settings and the box settings.
View 14 Replies View RelatedI have two NIC's interfaces on my linux machine(eth1 and eth2). Each have different IP addresses(10.0.0.1, 10.67.7.1). These two interfaces are connected together through hub. Here is the my question?
1) If I 'ping 10.0.0.1', it should go out through network interface eth2 and through hub and enter on eth1 and response also travel through similar direction.
2) If I 'ping 10.67.7.1', it should go out through network interface eth1 and through hub and enter on eth2.
How can setup routing table for this,I have tried setting up routing and iptables, etc.. nothing helped.
If any one good router/networking guy, you should know this one.I am doing a project, I want this way to handle this.
I currently have Samba working properly using the eth0 interface on my notebook computer. More importantly, I can browse the network and see the shares set up in Samba. If I disconnect and go wireless using the wlan0 interface I can no longer browse the shares on Samba via name. I can however browse via IP address of the wlan0 interface. How can I make it so that Samba is accessible by name when I switch between interfaces?

I'm running 2 asterisk box (Centos) ,and the two servers are connected through 2 iax trunks.on one server i have 2 nics ,each one is connected to internet,now i want to use isp 1 for the first trunk and isp 2 for the second trunk.
iax 1 is listening on 12345
iax 2 is listening on 11223
is there a way to split traffic on both nic using ports (netfilter iptables)?
I have a server that provides the access to the net. It has 3 nics 2 Realtek 100mb and a ne2000 isa 10mb card for the net. I ran an update from a working configuration on Fedora 9 to Fedora 10 with yum upgrade. Fedora 10 does not find the the ne2000 at boot time. After booting I can modprobe ne and the nic is found in a new network restart call. Has something changed how modules are loaded before udev runs?
Then there is the problem that nics are assigned the wrong interfaces(eth*). I have configured it in sysconfig with the files ifcfg-eth(0-2). I do not run NetworkManager. Has something changed in the configuration how the interfaces are assigned to the nics via the mac addresses?
I have tried to change the net profile of udev but since the ne2000 is not found at boot time but had no success. And one of the Realtek nics is not found at some times.
I'm using Fedora 12 on a box with 2 separate NICs in different subnets. The problem is that after a reboot, both NICs always show up as eth0 when you left click on the networking icon on the top right. I have to manually change one of them to eth1 & then things start working.
DEVICE=eth0
HWADDR=(mac address)
BOOTPROTO=none

I'm trying to setup a Centos box to act as a backup server for our intranet between stores. I have two interfaces in it, the first one is currently connected to my local network and is using dhcp to get its ip address and such, the second one is set to a static ip address and is connected to an independent network that just has a DigiBoard Portserver hooked to it and no connection to the regular network. What I am doing is using ssh to portforward the telnet port on this box to the main server so when you telnet into the box from the second interface using the portserver you get connected to the main server.
I plan on using this over DSL lines as a backup when our main dervice goes out to allow the portservers at the remote locations to seemlessly connect to the main server by just moving the network cable from the local net to the backup server. My problem is that when I have the everything working I am able to ping the second interface ip address from the normal network even though the secondary card does not in anyway externally connect to the network, this is a problem.
Eventually I want to duplicate the main server address so that the normal portservers and other terminals on the remote site will not have to be reconfigured to access the backup server. All I want is to be able to tell the managers is to switch a cable while the main connection is down and not have to manage a bunch of config files to get the store back up. Right now if I duplicate the main server ip address and it is accessible through the first interface I'm guessing I'll see all kinds of problems relating to duplicate ip addresses on the network. I've tried some routing and iptable stuff but I'm not real familiar with either so I had no luck. Is there someway to block the internal connection between the two interfaces so the only thing that sees the duplicate ip address is the second interface?
I am really bothered from this I cant configure the 2 nics to share the internet and I already changed the sysctl.conf file to
# Controls IP packet forwarding
net.ipv4.ip_forward = 1
I have one nic reeving the internet and working good and the other one cant see anything...
I have been looking for a solution for this but am not certain how to word it to get a viable answer.My scenario:

I have a Debian 5 system with two nics. eth0 is set up with dhcp-client which will receive a public ip address from my isp. The eth1 will be for my local network and I want to use dhcp-server daemon to serve addresses to my internal network. The area I am confused about is how transmissions are getting sent between nics. I've been told to enable tcp forwarding but I don't understand how that would work since the nics have different network addresses... unless tcp forwarding is basically nat or something..
View 2 Replies View RelatedMy current setup is a slack based distro with Squid 3.0 running in transparent mode with WCCP. Web filtering and AV scanning works great but we need to go a step further and introduce port filtering into the setup. I can easily accomplish this with iptable entries but only if I point to the proxy directly; the goal is to do this completely by interception. So far I've had no luck doing this with iptable entries or with squid ACL's and I am wondering if there's something that I am missing or just not doing correctly. So far during testing I've just been testing with common IM chat ports such as MSN and Yahoo. I am currently trying to setup a test lab with squid and 2 NICs with one NIC connected directly to the internet but this is not a route I would like to go.

View 14 Replies View RelatedI have a motherboard which has 4 x 1Gbps Ethernet controllers. I would like to use it as a Gateway for my home network. I have a static IP from my ISP which I can use to configure eth0 (I haven't done it yet as the LE-565 is currently sitting behind my Netgear router until I've got DHCP working). I would like to use eth1, eth2 and eth3 for my LAN. How do I set things up so that DHCP is handing out IP addresses on the same subnet (192.168.0.0/24) on all three interfaces?
P.S. I think what I'm asking is: how do I combine all 3 interfaces to behave like a switch (ie. just like my Netgear router)?
I've just installed Fedora 10 to basically work as a NAS for another machine - but also serve a couple of web pages. After having alot of issues with network manager (with it changing the subnet so nothing would work), I'm now almost there:
I have two network cards connected in the server:
1) eth0 connects to a switch that ultimately connects it to the net (on a 10.0.0.* network)
2) eth1 connects directly into another server for backups (192.168.0.* network).
Now when I setup eth0, I get network access can ping/ update/ surf the net - absolutely no problems, but when I connect eth1 in - the net dies and nothing works, I can ping devices on both the 10.0.* and 192.168.* networks, just nothing past the gateway. I presume this is either a route or DNS issue, but am unsure about where its falling foul - both the resolv.conf file looks fine as do the ifcfg-ethx scripts.
I have a program that attaches to an interface. I can run two copies of the program on two systems (each running one instance), connect it to a switch, say 1.1.1.1 & 1.1.2.1. In this configuration two instances of the program can communicate and everything is fine.Now, to reduce cost, it want to use only one system with two nics connected to the same switch, running two instances of the above program, each instance attached to two interfaces respectively on the system. I have the following settings:
eth1 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
inet addr:1.1.1.1 Bcast:1.1.1.255 Mask:255.255.255.0
UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1
[code]....
However I cannot ping one from the other.
Neither "ping -I eth1 1.1.2.1" nor "ping -I eth2 1.1.1.1" works.
I'm running Ubuntu 11.04 and I'm really new to linux. My problem is that whenever I try to browse a site I notice the website loads very slowly because it takes a long time to do lookups. I installed Ubuntu with an onboard NIC and later switched to a PCI NIC (Dlink DGE-530T). Although I disabled the onboard NIC in the BIOS, it doesn't help. Could this conflict in configuration be a problem? My download rates are fine, its just lookups that take really long ( upto ~ 10 seconds). I know the PCI network card is fine because when I jump to Windows 7, lookups are normal again (~ 300ms). At first I thought about installing the sk98lin drivers for the PCI NIC but I saw a couple of places where people have mentioned that the skge driver that comes along with the kernel is better.
I have tried a system wide as well as Firefox disable of IPv6. Here is my /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules
Code:
# PCI device 0x1186:0x4b01 (skge)
SUBSYSTEM=="net", ACTION=="add", DRIVERS=="?*", ATTR{address}=="00:24:01:14:eb:39", ATTR{dev_id}=="0x0", ATTR{type}=="1", KERNEL=="eth*", NAME="eth0"
# PCI device 0x10de:0x0373 (forcedeth)
SUBSYSTEM=="net", ACTION=="add", DRIVERS=="?*", ATTR{address}=="00:1e:8c:3e:19:ed", ATTR{dev_id}=="0x0", ATTR{type}=="1", KERNEL=="eth*", NAME="eth1"
The interface I want to use according to the listing above is the one with the MAC - 00:24:01:14:eb:39.
I tried removing one of the entries in the file above and rebooting but it still didn't work. Here is a look at my /etc/network/interfaces
Code:
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
# The primary network interface
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
address 192.168.1.10
gateway 192.168.1.1
netmask 255.255.255.0
network 192.168.1.0
broadcast 192.168.1.255
I have 1 root-server with 2 NICs, both having their own internet IP addresses:
Code: eth0 = 8x.x.x.183
eth2 = 8x.x.x.205 We only have one gateway on that network:
Code: gateway = 8x.x.x.1 We want to use eth2 for postfix + http, and eth0 for all the other stuff.
How can this be setup ? With route / ip route / iptables ?
