Hi all.


First I would like to explain my scenario and requirement.

I have 3 gateways in my office. I want to redirect all web traffic

(port 80 and 443) through one gateway and ssh connections through other

one. All machines have single network interface. For this what I did

is created an ip alias et0:1 and assigned ip to it. Then wrote an ip route rule to route packets from eth0:1's ip to other gateway.

All other traffic will go through default gateway. But here I am not sure how I can make web browser to use eth0:1's ip. It's using eth0 's ip. I wrote a ip table rule to change source ip of http packets to
et0:1's ip. But rule is on POSTROUTING chain. So I think it's happening after routing.


Am I on wrong way. Please give me your valuable suggestions.

You may find it simpler to set up a proxy ...

yes

But I found a way for this..I marked packets with destaination port 80 , with iptables mangle table. Then used ip route rule
to forward these packets to other gateway.

Thanks

I realise your solution is possible, I was just thinking about what happens when you leave and someone else has to look after it ? ... know what I mean ?

cheers

yep..I know proxy is the simple way for this. But I also want to route ssh traffic since I have 4 gateways in my office..

Thanks for your support.
