Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-isp@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Hello, A while ago I asked about lower level load balancing between multiple routers plus bandwidth management, and someone mentioned mpath and dummynet. At the time I believe I did a web search for mpath and came up with exactly what I needed. This time around I'm not so lucky, I haven't been able to find *anything* called mpath that has anything to do with FreeBSD or load balancing... mpath is basically a kernel hack that allows multiple gateways to be specified in a "route add" style command. Does anyone have the URL handy or perhaps documentation from a dist which shows the author's email address or other contact details? Thanks. Cheers. -- Rowan Crowe http://www.rowan.sensation.net.au/ Sensation Internet Services http://www.sensation.net.au/ Melbourne, Australia Phone: +61-3-9388-9260 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-isp" in the body of the message
