Title: [Endian Community Edition] Handle two WAN links
Post by: kdclaver on Wednesday 30 June 2010, 09:11:33 pm
Hello All,
I want to know how I can handle two (02) wan links with my endian box. my box has 4 NIC and my network looks this :
1 interface for a LAN
1 interface for another LAN
1 interface for red (first WAN link)
1 interface for red (second WAN link)

Can someone helps me to install and configure this box.
I usually use endian with 3 interfaces : LAN - DMZ and WAN.

Thanks more for your replies

Make a normal installation: GREEN-ORANGE-RED

After that, go to Network->Interfaces->Uplinks editor.
Select Create an uplink using the 4rd NIC.

There you have your second WAN.

Why not use a VLAN?

For RED is usual not to connect to a managed switch, so you'll probably have two rj-45 cables.
VLAN means costly switches and another layer to worry about.

For GREEN/BLUE is ok, but it's easier on red to simply connect to a NIC.
