Subject: Setup simple PC-based router using IPTABLES
Date: Wed, 12 Jan 2005 00:53:42 -0800 (PST)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20050112085342.40592.qmail@web12503.mail.yahoo.com> (raw)

Hi,
 
I need some help on using IPTABLES to setup a simple PC-based router (for LAN usage).
The PC consists of  a 10/100 NIC on eth0, and a gigabit fiber NIC on eth1. The gigabit fiber NIC is connected to another fiber-based port, whereas the 10/100 NIC is connected to a 10/100 hub. Now, for all packets coming from eth0, forward it to eth1, and vice versa. 
Could anyone verify/suggest commands to set for this setting?
# iptables -A FORWARD -i eth0 -o eth1 
# iptables -A FORWARD -i eth1 -o eth0 
 
Is it that's all we need to do? Thanks.
 
Regards,
Jocelyn
