I have been combing the list archive for info and it seems clear the configuring at 
least Dachstein or other than Bering with two active external interfaces is indeed a 
daunting task.  Getting the two interfaces to work looks fairly easy, it is then all 
about the firewall.  

 

A fairly inelegant way of accomplishing this seems to be a second set of configuration 
files for the backup interface, some file replacement by the script, and restarting 
shorewall.

 

I’m wandering if there is anything specific to iptables and Bering in particular 
that would facilitate this entire process.

 

Thanks for any ideas or comments!  

 

I hope to come up with a solid configuration for this setup that I can contribute and 
document.  I have talked to a couple of friends who have been doing LEAF for a while 
and they are very excited at the prospect of this configuration.

        I’m in the process of configuring a Bering setup to replace our Watchguard 
SOHO.  A recent prolong outage of our DSL network has complicated the issue.  I need 
to set up my LEAF to use the DSL link on eth0, have a script check the connection at a 
regular interval, restart the network once in case that is the problem, bring up a 
modem connection with ppp and use that until the DSL connection is restored.
        
        
        
        I have read the Detecting Disconnected Network thread and the scripts there 
cover some of the ground (Kiril, if you read this, your final script would be great to 
have!), I have the info on setting up the ppp/modem part, but the rest could use some 
help.
        
        
        
        I’m primarily hoping that someone has done exactly this configuration.
        
        
        
        Thanks
