Hi *,
how can I solve a problem on multihomed hosts with their broadcast?
When setting up a virtual host with 2 interfaces, the last with the
syntax "ethn:1.2.3.4/255.255.255.n" is "winning" the broadcast address.
The following table should clearify my question, as one can see the
broadcast for the first interface is wrong in the virtual bcast addressing:
The full setup of the host is (I shortened the list):
| -----------------------------------------------------
| eth0
| Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr XX:B0:81:A5:7F:54
|inet addr:192.168.5.168 Bcast:192.168.5.255 Mask:255.255.255.0
| ...
|
| eth0:m461 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr XX:B0:81:A5:7F:54
| inet addr:192.168.5.146 Bcast:10.11.12.255 Mask:255.255.255.0
| ^^^^^^^^^^^^ ???
| ...
|
------------ 2. Interface
| eth1 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr XX:B0:81:A5:7F:55
| inet addr:10.11.12.71 Bcast:10.11.12.255 Mask:255.255.255.0 ...
|
| eth1:m46 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr XX:B0:81:A5:7F:55
| inet addr:10.11.12.46 Bcast:10.11.12.255 Mask:255.255.255.0 ...
|
------------------------------
Any Ideas ?
Markus
