Hello list,
I have a linuxbox (Debian) with a fixed routed subnet on eth0. The eth0
is the default gateway in the default route table.
On eth2 I have a dynamic (non-rfc1918) address docsis router. I want
the following things to be realized:
1) run dhclient on eth2
2) dhclient on eth2 must NOT set default gw on default route table
3) dhclient must fill a user defined route table
4) dhclient must set def gw on that user defined route table
5) dhclient must set policy based routing
6) dhclient must clear all of the above on stop
Ok, I managed this. It works perfectly well. I just would like to have
some feedback on the "case" statement like BOUND|RENEW|REBIND|REBOOT
for activating the rules and FAIL|NBI|STOP|TIMEOUT|RELEASE|EXPIRE to
clear the rules.
Did I do this right or wrong?
R.
