Looking for the terminology.

I'm getting ready to start googling for how to do something, and I
cannot remember the term for it!

If I have 2 connections to the internet with different
characteristices, what's the term for setting things up so that some
services go on one route, some on the other?

Thanks!

I'd be happy to answer your question. When you quit posting commercials

on the Usenet. If that newwserver won't quit violating the Netiquette

guidelines, then dump them and tell them why.


I am contacting my newswerver and asking them to reject posts from that
newsserver.


I don't think they are into passing along a competitor's ads.


What do you think?

He does not post commercials. They are appended automatically

Ah, so you know that he did not post those, but his news-service

Question is, what would your "newsserver" think?
Could it be that he thinks you are an idiot and nutcase?

Alan, Plain and simple, fuck off. You waste more bandwidth with your
incessant whining than all the sigs etc. that you whine about. You
don't like the company I use for my newsserver access, go to hell.

The day I'm so desperate that I need an answer from you, I'll know
that my head is even further up my ass than yours is, which would put
it in a different timezone.

Now be a good little boy and go take your medication. Unlike you, I
actually know how a killfile works. Welcome to mine.

Multi-homing

All sorts of fun - when you run a server you need to 'route by source ' to
get the return packets steered correctly.. because ISP's have firewall rules
to block spoofing which blocks outgoing packets that have source IP
addresses that dont belong to the ISP ...

Load Balancing, Assymetrical Routing ?

I think you'd have to use iptables or perhaps some of the QoS stuff to
control what goes where if you want to do it at the protocol level. (e.g.
www vs ftp ).

If you only wanted to control access to certain hosts (e.g. your ISPs mail
server) , then you could do it via explicit routing table entries.

Looks looks like QOS is my best starting place. What my ISP does is
irrelevant to me.. I don't actually have one. 8-)>

Thanks for the tips, folks.

Look for "load balancing on two ISPs" or "ISP diversity". Most hits returned by
Google will be vendor-specific (i.e. Cisco) but you can probably find some
useful hints anyway.
