After an outage on VDSL last month, I got a backup 10/1 cable subscription backup. Switching is a bit of a hassle. In addition to swapping cables, I have to run dhcpcd as root or sudo when swithching from VDSL to cable. Switching back I have to run "dhcpcd -x", copy over my backup of /etc/resolve.conf, and run "/etc/init.d/net.eth0 restart".
The VDSL router/modem offers dhcp and static address space at 192.168.1.0/24, DNS and default GW 192.168.1.1. I've bought a router that gets a WAN address from the cable modem via dhcpcd, and offers dhcp and static address space at 192.168.10.0/24, DNS and default GW 192.168.10.1. My current /etc/conf.d/net is... mtu_eth0="1466" config_eth0=" 192.168.1.249/24 broadcast 192.168.1.255" routes_eth0=" default via 192.168.1.1 metric 20 192.168.1.240/28 via 192.168.1.1 metric 0" ...for my machine 192.168.1.249. Can I have something like... mtu_eth0="1466" config_eth0=" 192.168.1.249/24 broadcast 192.168.1.255 192.168.10.249/24 broadcast 192.168.1.255" routes_eth0=" default via 192.168.1.1 metric 20 192.168.1.240/28 via 192.168.1.1 metric 0" ... and how would I tweak the last two lines to work without changes each time I switch between VDSL (192.168.1.1) and cable (192.168.10.1) ? -- Walter Dnes <waltd...@waltdnes.org> I don't run "desktop environments"; I run useful applications
