I was just reading the route man pages the other day and noticed that I could add my own static routing stables :-D I'm curious, I have a home network setup, if I was to use route to create my own routing table to be used with my internal network, would that increase the efficiently of my Linux MASQing machine? For example, I could build my routing table like this: Kernel IP routing table Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface 192.168.0.1 * 255.255.255.255 UH 0 0 0 eth1 192.168.0.3 192.168.0.1 255.255.255.255 UGH 0 0 0 eth1 192.168.0.2 192.168.0.1 255.255.255.255 UGH 0 0 0 eth1 192.168.0.0 * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth1 MyBroadcast ISPGateway 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth0 My IP ISPGateway 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth0 127.0.0.0 * 255.0.0.0 U 0 0 0 lo default ISPGateway 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0 Forgice me for the lousy print out :-D Does this do what I think it does?? Do I need to set up RIP on my machine or is it enabled by default? Is there a more efficient way of doing this? And do I need to setup the routing table on the clients machines as well?
