Hello everybody,
I installed a ASG Ver. 7.504 during the last days and read the manual.
First of all: All things work well and I'm really satisfied with the ASG.
But, there is one little thing I need to fix. For understandig what I mean I have to describe my environment.
Well, I'm using the system described above as sw appliance on standard PC hardware with one on board NIC (eth4, not in use) and 4 plugged in NICs (3COM 509 all, eth0...3).
The system ist configured follows:
eth0: => external DSL-Modem => Internet
eht1: => Intranet
eth2: => Extranet
eht3: => DMZ
I'm using a well know German Provider as DSL-Carrier only and connect to the Internet by an other one. The last one gave me one fix address (for eth0) and a /29 subnet with offical ip-addresses which is routed to eht0. In ASG I
declared three additional (official) addresses ont eth0 which are bound to eth0:0...2. This three addresses I used for some DNAT and SNAT rules. All these things work fine.
Sadly, every nigth the additional interfaces with there alias addresse on eth0:0...2 go down and down come up again. No idea why. In the moring there status is indicated as "down". So I have to click on the red traffic is green altough the state is indicated as "down". So I have to click on the "red" traffic light for each virtual interface and wait some time. Then I click on the green light until and wait again some time. After a while the interfaces come up and all things are well. But, the same procedure every morning.
My idea is that this may be related to the DSL cut off every night at 02:30 a.m. I choosed this point in time at the providers user interface, i.e. the provider itself hook off the line at this time and it will come up nearly 5 minutes later.
Does anybody have an idea what to do to make eht0:0...2 coming up automatically after disconnecting the DSL-Line or is there any other idea?
Many thanks in advance
Guido
