On my home network, I am currently using IP-masquerading (aka NAT) on my linux gateway to provide internet access for the local net. This has been working fine in general, but I have some problems with internet multiplayer in certain games that I believe are due to the IP-masqing. My ISP provides public addresses via DHCP, but I prefer having static addresses on the local net. I was wondering if I could use both public & private addresses via IP Aliasing.
Would this work? Internet | | Gateway |- eth0 public dynamic address |- eth1:0 bridged with eth0 |- eth1:1 private static address | Local Net |- eth0:0 public dynamic address |- eth0:1 private static address Thanks in advance, Conway S.
