Hi,
First let me commend this group on making LEAF, I've recently been looking
for a solution (and trying my own different solutions) to make available my
Webmail system when the primary broadband link goes down, on the secondary
broadband link I installed for this. I'm not sure LEAF Bering is the answer
for me, which is why I'm asking here.
I've read most of the documentation online and searched the archives, but
I'm still not 100% sure whether I can use the software in my current
configuration for what I want it to do.
I came across your software when I posted the following forum article in
Openwebmail's forums:
http://openwebmail.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1830
and googling a bit more from that brought up LEAF.
The explanation on the above link pretty much describes what my setup is,
where I have a
couple of internet c-classes (203.x.x.x), one being BGP advertised on LinkA
and the other being BGP advertised on LinkB. Each ISP provides me with one
static IP for the adsl link, but since each BGP's a different c-class
internet address, then I use 203.x.x.x addresses on all my internal servers.
My webservers (running Fedora Core 1 to ScientificLinux 4 [RHEL4]) all have
live 203.x.x.x internet addresses, so there's no NATing involved, just those
subnets are firewalled, where the firewall allows through port 80, 443, etc
to specific web servers. The firewall system runs on Fedora Core 3 with
shorewall firewall v2.0.13-1.
I'm currently looking at the Skypipes software also, but would prefer much
less config especially if LEAF provides me what I want.
So my question is, would LEAF work in my type of configuration? ie. where I
have my own c-class addresses that I allow through to webservers with those
live 203.x.x.x addresses?
Note that I'm _hosting_ more than getting stuff from the net, so my interest
is to keep my webmail services up, whether that be automatically or to
provide my users with a backup domain like:
http://backupwebmail.domain.com
which routes through the backup link.
Thanks and regards,
Michael.
