Re: Config freebsd as getway
Ok my setup is something a little different but still works on the same premise Internal Lan --- 10base Hub --- FBSD -- Internet THe only thing that I have different is the 24 port hub inbetween my lan and the FreeBSD box. It's been awhile since it was configured but here is an excerpt from my rc.conf file: network devices=vr0 dc0 lc0 ifconfig_vr0=media10BaseT/UTP up (This is my internet connection) ifconfig_dc0=***.***.***.*** 255.255.255.0 (Lan Card) gateway_enable=yes The ip for the internal LAN has been masked because they are routable IP's and I am having problems with attacks on my network right now. I am not sure you can do what you want to without a hub between a pc and b pc as if my logic serves me correct both network cards would have to be set as a gateway. Hopefully this gets you pointed in the right direction.

I want it as getway. I have config gateway_enable=YES in rc.conf,and then reboot. [a pc][freebsd]---[b pc] After reboot , I try to use a pc to ping b pc ,it`s not work ,but a pc and b pc can ping freebsd successful,why? Please give me a hand. Thanks!!

Re: Networking Questions
Thanks Bob, This worked out perfectly. All I did was add the second nic. COnfigured it for the First IP in my block and added the Enable Gateway and boom I was off and surfing :) Rob G [EMAIL PROTECTED] - Original Message - From: Bob Johnson [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: Rob G [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Saturday, April 10, 2004 5:57 PM Subject: Re: Networking Questions On Saturday 10 April 2004 01:54 pm, Rob G Rob G [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi All, I am new to the list, but I have tried researching the archives and couldn't find exactly what I am looking for and would like your opinion on how to do this: I have a 4Meg DSL connection with Multiple Static IPs. 69.63.33.### is my main IP that my router or System that does authentication will always get. 209.213.231.###/29 is my block of 8 other IP's that route to my main IP. If your ISP is already routing these numbers to your main IP, then it should be easy. Right now I have my fsb box running mail/web and other services and I would like it to do the routing for my internal network of 4 or so computers. I have a Hub that I can plug these other systems in to so that is not a problem. I believe all you need to do is set gateway_enable=YES in rc.conf (and reboot -- I don't know the manual way to accomplish that). I think your box will automatically figure out which IP numbers are on which interface, and forward appropriately. If not, you will need to set up a static route to tell it which interface the 209.../29 subnet is on, since it won't use the default gateway to the Internet. Manually, you use the route(8) command to do this. I think you can automate it with the static_routes= entry in rc.conf, but I don't know the syntax. What would be the best way to use my block of statics and have them Route properly through my BSD box. I would like to stay away from NAT as I know it right now, broadband router, as it causes havoc with my filesharing programs and would like to have my other systems pretty much open to the internet and then start locking them down as need be once I get them seeing the outside world and the outside world seeing them. You shouldn't need to run a real router daemon for this simple situation, so you don't need to mess with router_enable in rc.conf. Now that I've typed all this, it occurs to me that the better answer is for you to read the appropriate section of the FreeBSD Handbook: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/network-routing.ht ml Regards, Rob G [EMAIL PROTECTED] Good luck. - Bob ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
