#15 Working on gateway with multiple hosts

[Anonymous]

When you have a host with multiple network interfaces/
asliases it is important that outgoing connection will go
into appropriate channel.

It is the same as Squid has

acl my_net1 src 192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0
acl my_net2 src 192.168.2.0/255.255.255.0

tcp_outgoing_address 10.5.1.1 my_net1
tcp_outgoing_address 10.5.2.1 my_net2

Would be nice to have similar feature in p3scan.conf.

This can be done either by listening on multiple ports,
either depending on which local interface initiated
connection or by src-ip.

Without this feature it seems like you need multiple
instances of p3scan working, what is not a problem with
couple addresses, but if the number of networks grows?

I didn't understand the request at first, but now after
rereading I do: If you have ONE firewall for multiple
networks, each network with a different outbound link for
bandwidth control purposes, like many small to medium
business have, as sometimes it's cheaper to have 3 dsl
lines from multiple vendors than one larger pipe from the
same vendor.

I will add this to the TODO list for 3.x.
