The machine has IP addresses on both IP ranges. The default gateway is 207.x.x.1. I'm running a server which is bound to a 206.x.x.x IP. However, since my default gateway is 207.x.x.1, it sends all data out on link #2 but receives incoming data over link #1. This means that if either link #1 or link #2 is down, I'm effectively dead in the water. Is there any way to tell my box that for all data going out of it with a /source/ address of 206.x.x.x should be sent through the 206.x.x.1 gateway? I know I can do this based on destination, but I have no clue how to do it based on source (and unfortunately I can't predict the addresses of all the clients I'll be communicating with). Hope someone has some ideas. Thanks in advance. --- Jesse http://www.lumiere.net/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
