I just installed a secondary internet connection at my office, and I'm having a bizarre issue... I have a network card - dc0 That network card has a config roughly like ifconfig_dc0 inet 1.2.3.4 netmask 255.255.255.248 ifconfig_dc0_alias0 inet 2.3.4.5 netmask 255.255.255.248 defaultrouter="1.2.3.1" When I have the network set up in this manner (packets coming in via two external lines plugged into the same switch), I can only access the network that is on the same network as the default router. In the example above, I can access the server by 1.2.3.4, but not by 2.3.4.5. If I change the defaultrouter to 2.3.4.1, I can access the server by 2.3.4.5 but not 1.2.3.4. The ultimate goal of this, obviously, is to enable both interfaces to work from the outside world. Traffic needs to be able to come in either/or, and leave by the external device of my choosing. Is there something I should be checking, or something that I'm overlooking? Any help you could give would be *greatly* appreciated. Thanks!
