Question, i have a server that i would like to use two nics. i have two ips that are on the same subnet and they both have the same default route.
how do i tell traffic that comes to one ip that is assigned to eth0 to go back through eth0 and one ip that is assigned to eth1 to go back trhoug eth1 when it goes back out to the net ?
I'm no expert, but... AFAIK, you don't. AFAIK, you can't.
You can only have one default route, and that route points to one interface. Most people try to have two Ethernet cards on the same subnet so they can get double the bandwidth, but it simply does not work. If you want double the bandwidth, bond the two interfaces or aggregate them so they act like a single one. If you want to offer some services on one IP and other services on the other IP, realize that you're going to have to find some other way.
If I'm wrong, which I could be, someone please correct me. But that is my understanding of the situation.
What is it that you are trying to do?
