Hi,

I'm using Shorewall 4.2.1 in a "multiple ISP" scenario, currently with  
2 DSL lines attached as ppp0 and ppp1. I've followed the guide to set  
it up and it works, however some questions remain. Please see 
http://raq550.dyndns.org/~christian/dump.txt.gz 
  for configuration details.

(1) How is traffic split between the two lines? Based on what?
(2) The doc says to add masq entries between the balanced lines, which  
I didn't do yet. My ppp0 and ppp1 interfaces don't have a static IP,  
do I need to use a script to detect the current IP?
(3) What happens when a line goes down unexpectedly? How do I recover  
from that?
(4) We're planning to add two more DSL lines. The example for 3 lines  
is a bit unclear in terms of how to deal with one more line. Can  
anybody help?

Kind regards,

Christian
