Still learning.... I am trying to set up a box with two interfaces. I DO NOT want to route traffic through it.
It is at a site where there are two connections to the net and I want the testbox to have an address on each of the LANs which are attached to the routers for those two connections. There is no NAT involved and all addresses are global so let's pretend that one of the LANs is 192.168.0.0/24 and the other is 172.16.0.0/24 with the routers having .1 on its LAN and testbox is to be .254 on each LAN. I should be able to ssh into testbox using each of those two addresses and still be able to "see" the other router even if its connection to the internet is down. I figure that reply-to is going to be involved but I have not managed to make it do my bidding. Can it work? What's the magic line? TIA, Rod/ *** NOTE *** Please DO NOT CC me.
