Load Sharing - redirect users by IP source (AVOID Web proxy)

Fri Jan 23, 2009 10:46 am

Hi,

I am using 2.9.46 at the moment (I don't yet dare to upgrade!)

However we have now two aDSL lines coming into our MT router.
We would like to implement not actually load sharing, but direct traffic depending on its source ip (ie 192.168.173.0/24) to a particular interface.
Just using prerouting and mark routing does not seem to work.

One difficulty is we have a WEB proxy running and whatever I do, that seems to grab all the port 80 traffic and totally ignore the prerouting!!

mark routing - prerouting - (source address) 192.168.173.0/24 routing mark XXXXaDSL
and use the routing mark in the routing tables.

Help please!!

Cheers.

This is an old questions. How can we load balance through the Web Proxy? How can we know each user going out the proxy to route it accordingly? A connection-mark must be preserved through the proxy maybe?

I wonder what the official statement on this is.

Actually I don't want to load balance thru the WEB proxy, I just want to AVOID the damn thing depending on the source IP (ie 192.168.173.0/24)

That's all..

It just seems to grab *ALL* port 80 traffic whatever rules I use..

HELP!!
