It is indeed a bit unclear, perhaps it is better with the whole last paragraph removed. > afaik, Subnet is announce by node itself to other nodes. that mean i > cannot set, for example. subnet=1.2.3.4/32 in hosts/X within nodeA, > while subnet=5.6.7.8/32 in hosts/X within nodeB You can do the latter if you also use StrictSubnets = yes AND Forwarding = kernel. > so, is it correct that i cannot have 0.0.0.0/0 for *two* gateway node > as in http://www.tinc-vpn.org/examples/redirect-gateway/ ? You can do that (without needing the above options). Packets are then sent to only one of the two gateway nodes, unless it is not reachable, in which case they will be sent to the other one. You can use Subnet weights to explicitly give one of the nodes a higher priority than the other. > mode=switch/hub instead of router have to be used in this case ? That would work as well. -- Met vriendelijke groet / with kind regards, Guus Sliepen <[email protected]>
