Due to I only want to designate a route interface without gateway, in linux system, I could use ip command like as ip route add default dev eth0. But in FreeBSD, there is no ip command. What should I do?
As you can read from bsd handbook you can use the route command
Type
route add default eth0

I have a PC with Ubuntu server 18.04 installed on it and I'm trying to use this PC as a server. There are 2 interfaces involved here:
To provide It's internet, I am using an android smartphone that has access to internet via it's Data and it will be sharing internet with my PC (server) via USB Tethering. This will create an interface called 'enp0s29f7u8'. This interface will get an IP automatically (DHCP?), mostly '192.168.42.249'.
There is another interface called 'enp2s0' which is a Huawei internet modem and it's connected to my PC with a LAN cable. This 'enp2s0' will serve as an Access-Point so I can SSH to my PC While I'm close. I installed 'ifupdown' on server so I can assign an Static IP to my Access-Point, namely '192.168.1.10'.
$ cat /etc/network/interfaces
auto enp2s0
iface enp2s0 inet static
address 192.168.1.10
netmask 255.255.255.0
network 192.268.0.0
gateway 192.168.1.1
dns-nameservers 192.168.1.1
Here is the problem: I cannot access internet with this setups. It's like Ubuntu is trying to connect to Internet via 'enp2s0', which is only an AP with no access to internet.
So i tried
sudo ifconfig enp2s0 down
and there it is, i have internet. Also, when I do
sudo ifconfig enp2s0 up
after that, i still have access to internet.
How can I config my PC so that it will always use 'enp0s29f7u8' to access internet and use 'enp2s0' only as an AP?
p.s. 1: I really don't understand network stuff. I tried changing default gateway (I don't know why) but it didn't helped(at least the way i did).
p.s. 2: I'm not a native English speaker. Hope that I could talk my mind.
To modify the routing table you have to use the command route.
If you run the command as super user it should show how the traffic is routed from your host. You have to change the default to enp0s29f7u8. In order to change it you can simply remove the default
# route del default
and add again
# route add default dev enp0s29f7u8
You can route only some address to the other interface. Have a look at the man for more option of the route command
I like the idea of running my own nameserver (BIND) but if I do that, I can't get the benefit of blocking nasty websites by putting them in /etc/hosts
DNSMasq is able to refer to /etc/hosts but rather than specifying an "upstream" dnsserver, I'd like it to be able to use BIND on the same machine. However, they both need to use the same port.
Is this possible? I couldn't find anything about this in regular searching.
I suppose an alternative would be to run another Linux instance in a VM and run DNSMasq there (say) but I'd like to not have to do this.
you could assign multiple ip addresses to the same interface, either with
ip addr add <address>/32 dev eth0
or using
ifconfig eth0:1 <address>
then bind one server to one address, the other server to the second address.
Which server is queried depends now on the ip address your queries are sent to.
The examples assume that your eth interface is eth0.
I have a VPS on which eth0 is configured , i want to configure a interface eth0.1 but i want to know if i will configure this new interface the data flow will be divided between eth0 and eth0.1 ?
I want to use eth0 Ip address for all the data flow on server like custom written scripts and eth0.1 Ip address to access it from browser as i have web-server on it.
Linux, by default, will send all packets out the default interface for the subnet, which is most likely eth0.
iproute2 attempts to solve this problem by redirecting packets out on the same interface on which they have been received.
http://www.linuxfoundation.org/collaborate/workgroups/networking/iproute2
So, to answer your question, most packets on your system will probably already go out eth0 (assuming it's the same subnet).
If you set up an alias interface, eth0.1 (from your example), any programs listening on either all interfaces, or specifically, to eth0.1 will be able to receive packets on that IP address.
To add a secondary IP address you use the : separator on the interface name. Suppose you have eth0 assigned with 11.22.33.44 and you also want it to work with 11.22.33.55. Then you would just do:
ifconfig eth0:1 11.22.33.55
If you don't touch routing through the ip route command, 11.22.33.55 won't ever be used as an outbound interface, unless you're answering a request that points to 11.22.33.55 itself, so there are two more things to do.
The first is setting up your webserver's listening address to 11.22.33.55 instead of 'any' IP or 11.22.33.44. This depends on your webserver, in the case of apache check out the Listen directive.
The second thing, if you use a domain, to do is setting up a DNS record to point to 11.22.33.55 instead of 11.22.33.44. Take care because a domain name can't be resolved to a different address depending on the destination port, so you'll need a domain name for each interface. The alternative is directly using the IP address 11.22.33.44 for the script stuff and using the domain name for the webserver only.
After you've done this you can safely use tcpdump, iptables & friends on both the physical and the virtual interface.
I'm trying to test a ethernet bridging device. I have multiple ethernet ports on a linux box. I would like to send packets out one interface, say eth0 with IP 192.168.1.1, to another interface, say eth1 with IP 192.168.1.2, on the same subnet.
I realize that normally you don't configure two interfaces on the same subnet, and if you do the kernel routes directly to each interface, rather than over the wire. How can I override this behavior, so that traffic to 192.168.1.2 goes out the 192.168.1.1 interface, and visa-versa?
Thanks in advance!
This is a guess, but I hope it is in the right direction.
Make more-specific routing table entries, along the lines of:
route add -host 192.168.1.2 dev eth0
route add -host 192.168.1.1 dev eth1
You may also need to fiddle with the accept_local configuration for both interfaces -- or the all setting. (Turning this on may make your machine more susceptible to IP source spoofing attacks; be sure you have good ingress firewall rules elsewhere to prevent trouble.) (See sysctl -a | grep accept_local for what I'm talking about.)
I think you need something like Mac-Vlan in your Linux. This cannot be done with NAT only. Read this: http://www.linuxjournal.com/article/7268.
We have a CentOS server with 2 ethernet adapters. Both of these adapters have access to the internet and both can be used to connect to remote sites.
Is there a way to know which ethernet adapter will be used when connecting to an FTP server or connecting via SSH to another server? If so, is there a way to force it to use a particular adapter without disabling any?
Perhaps you can set up a special route for the servers you intend to connect to? Have a look at the route command, or the "ip route" command.
EDIT: This seems to contain an example of what I'm saying: http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/howto-linux-configuring-default-route-with-ipcommand/
Specifically:
Type the following command to sent all packets to the local enter
code herenetwork 192.168.1.0 directly through the device eth0:,
enter
ip route add 192.168.1.0/24 dev eth0
For ssh, you can use the BindAddress ssh_config option. You can specify it on the command line with the -o option.
