4 NIC cards

4 NIC cards

[ads nat]

Hi,
I have setup a Redhat 9.0 Linux server with 5 NIC 
(Intel Motherboard) router.

I will be getting bandwidth (256 kbps) from 4 dialup
supplies all are through dialer installed by ISP. Each
dialer is assigened to each NIC.

I would like to get bandwidth from all 4
simulteneously so that totally it will make
(256x4=1024 kbps) and want to distribute it to my LAN
through Ethernet card no. 5.

Is it possible to achieve this? and if so please guide
me to URL OR howto to achieve this.

Thanks for support.

Simple answer: no.  More complex answer: look at the LARTC-howto.

 Regards, Frank.

have a look at:

  http://lartc.org/howto/lartc.rpdb.multiple-links.html

and also the page linked at the very bottom of that page:

  http://www.ssi.bg/~ja/#routes

also--keep in mind that since your outbound traffic will need to be
balanced on a per-connection basis, no single connection will ever get
more than 256 kb/s of bandwidth.

Hi all.

Where or better how can I set a/the connection-timeout?

Connections seems to be terminated after approx. 10 minutes.

Yes, it's possible. Just look at the nexthop option of
the iproute2 "ip" command. It's explained in the lartc
howto (lartc.org).

I think out bound trafic can be balanced with squid on
per user basis.
Please correct me if I am wrong.
Thanks for support.
