Okay, how much smarter than me do the hubs have to be?

All the DSL lines have static IP's. I basically want the single-line DSL router (the DLink) to be reserved for incoming traffic (so their bandwidth is guaranteed), and use the 2 bonded lines for outbound only. If I take out either DSL router (and tell the PIX to use the other router as the GW), it works fine. What does NOT work is inbound requests (say, to our webserver) on the single-line router when the dbl-line router is set as the GW on the PIX. I'm stuck. Is it not supposed to work? I tried subnetting each router and still no dice.

Hope this helps anyone in a similar situation. --------------------------------- A stupid despot may constrain his slaves with iron chains; but a true politician binds them even more strongly by the chain of their own ideas;...despair and time eat away the bonds of iron and steel, but they are powerless against the habitual union of ideas, they can only tighten it still more; and on the soft fibres of the brain is founded the unshakable base of the soundest of Empires."

Apparently the LAN side of those cheap DSL routers aren't as smart at routing packets appropriately as the WAN side--I thought I could build a bush but had to build a tree instead. I'm still confused. But I don't have the time to waste being confused anymore--big SW package to roll out by May. I went for the quick and dirty. --------------------------------- A stupid despot may constrain his slaves with iron chains; but a true politician binds them even more strongly by the chain of their own ideas;...despair and time eat away the bonds of iron and steel, but they are powerless against the habitual union of ideas, they can only tighten it still more; and on the soft fibres of the brain is founded the unshakable base of the soundest of Empires."

a smart hub and adjacent ip's should work fine - (boxley) - (6) - Oct. 30, 2001, 10:12:43 PM EST

Figured that was right but wasn't sure. Thanks! - (tseliot) - Oct. 31, 2001, 11:37:52 AM EST
