Subject: [LARTC] Squid - Load Balancing Multihomed Linux Router
Date: Tue, 06 Jul 2004 18:13:58 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <40EAE916.4070300@tuxspace.com> (raw)
Hi All,
In a scenario, where a LAN is being provided internet connectivity
through multiple ISPs terminated at a Load Balanced Multihomed Linux
Router as described in LARTC HowTo, how would the traffic distribution
affected if there is a squid based transparent proxy for the LAN's web
traffic on the same system (i.e. the load balanced router itself). The
recent squid versions have an option of setting multiple values for
"outgoing_tcp_address" depending upon various ACL rules. Its also
possible to not specify any IP address for this parameter so that it
takes the outtgoing address on its own. But how would the proxy server
behave in case of 2 or more outgoing internet links ? Has someone tried
out something similar ? What will happen if this transparent proxy
server is on a different system within the LAN itself ? Would the
traffic distribution between multiple ISPs be affected since the entire
web traffic would appear to originate from a single LAN IP (the IP
address of the proxy server) ?
Thank you in advance for your comments.
- Manish
