Hi, I hope you can help me!!
I've a lan with some hosts.
I want that all the packets going from the host A to the host B don't go
directly to it but through the host G.
I did it, but I've a problem with my configuration, it works only a time.
I did this (A,B,G are the IP addresses):
host A :
route add B G
host B :
gateway_enable="YES" (/etc/rc.conf)
Now, if I execute "traceroute B" on the host A, it works, that's the
resulting route is A-G-B.
On the contrary the second time it is: A-B.
I executed also "netstat -r", the first time there is the right entry
destination gateway ......
B G ......
the second time it is so splitted:
destination gateway ......
B B_ethernet_address ......
G G_ethernet_address ...
Can I avoid this splitting ?
I'd like to have forever the first entry, is it possible ?
