Hi all,
I'm fairly new to masquerading/firewalling/etc, have looked through various
HOWTOs but am still not certain if I have found the right place or not,
so....
We currently have a demo NT product (WinGate) that does name translation
from an outside vendors VAN to our internal Y2K network. The server has two
ethernet cards, one connected to the VAN, the other to our Y2K network. What
the software does is that it allows the VAN ethernet to be mapped to
multiple addresses and when a connection comes in on that address, directs
it to one of our Y2K servers via the second ethernet card. For example:
Someone on the VAN telnets to 1.2.3.4 (NT server), WinGate then changes the
header packets to point to 192.168.1.2 and the VAN connected people are now
on our Y2K server. We can setup multiple IP addresses for the VAN card
(IP-Aliasing) to map them to multiple servers in our Y2K lab. This works
fine, except the demo only allows connection to one mapped server at a time
and we are having difficulties contacting the vendor to purchase a license.
Now I know IP-Aliasing can get me the multiple addresses on the one ethernet
card, but would I use IP-Masquerading to do the mapping or would I need to
look elsewhere.
TIA,
Jason
