How to reply some request from which routes its came from?

  • 772

I wonder if we can reply some request from which route its came from?

My Situation is like this:

eth0 192.168.10.1 --> gw: 192.168.10.254 nm: 24
eth1 192.168.11.1 --> gw: 192.168.11.254 nm: 24

Since this two IP is on the same machine, normally when we ping to 192.168.11.1 from 192.168.10.2. This machine will not reply to 192.168.10.2 because 192.168.10.0/24 it's on eth0, and the packets where requested via eth1.

Can I make it works?

I'm using Linux ubuntu, and the application will be listen to eth1 only.

ip iptables ethernet route

  1. How are the two networks interconnected? If the only "point of contact" of the two nets is the "machine" it cannot work, unless you have on your gateway (192.168.10.254) a route to 192.168.11.0/24 via 192.168.10.1.

  2. Sorry to bother, I put

    ip route 192.168.10.2 via 192.168.11.1 dev eth1

    on my machine, and this do the tricks. the rest 192.168.1.0/24 will be replied via 192.168.10.1 because it was a kernel link, but 192.168.10.2 will go thru the gateway to vlan2 and back.

    I Answered my own question.
