Hi,

I posted a similar question some time ago, but I'm still confused.

At this moment I have a FreeBSD firewall which has 4 network interfaces for
different services:
Internal network, Fiber connection (256 kbit line), cable connection, ADSL
connection

I would like to use every connection for specific trafic
Fiber for watchdog queries to our webserver
Cable for general surfing for local users
ADSL for mail and webcam 

I don't really know what to use to point the ip-traffic in its right
direction.
I had a look at NAT. I think I need NAT just to translate the source, but
NAT comes in when the direction is already determaned. 

Do I need routing? If so, any suggestions of a package or protocol?
I'm a complete newbie to routing. I had a look at Zebra and Gated but as far
as I understand they don't really do what I want.

In general I would like to route traffic coming in and going out for my
mailserver. Routing on protocol (POP3 and SMTP) would be great. But if thats
hard/impossible routing based on IP would be fine.

Local network

 mailserver  ---\                |-- querytraffic --= fiber   
 local user  ------- firewall ---|-- surftraffic ---= cable  
 watchdog    ---/                |-- mailtraffic ---= adsl  


Any answers or directions to information will be very much appreciated.
