Each VLAN has it's own DHCP which assigns ip address with netmask 255.255.255.0 and uses particular VLAN interface on router as a gateway. If I will do so. I will lost a route between my VLAN's that way and I do not want to use netmask 255.255.0.0 so computers in local lan can communicate without router.
Well, actually they will also be not reacheable, since I am using switch with configured VLAN, so subnets can not physically reach each others.
I have done little research and I have noticed : /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifup-routes which seems to use route-$IFNAME and rule-$IFNAME files, passing lines to ip command. Maybe I can try a little game in this area.
Thank you and Best Regards, David Hlacik
Hi David -
You might want to look into a router specific distro like Vyatta. The community edition is free or you can go the paid support route.
Vyatta will give you a much more robust router capability with a more maintainable configuration than trying to set this up by hand using IP tables. It also supports routing protocols like OSPF that make a lot more sense in the type of application you're looking at.
Cheers, Dave
