[LARTC] Crazy IP-Communication

[LARTC] Crazy IP-Communication

[Bernd Rudack]

Hi there,
in a specal case I want to send IP packets from one IP address to another IP 
address on the same multihomed linux box. The problem is, that the packets 
should leave the box by passing one ethernet interface, go through a 
hub/switch and get back into the box via the second interface.
Well, this sounds crazy.
Anyway, does anyone know a solution?

Bernd

Use Linux ;-) 
if the box has the IPs, it kows it and route it internally.
