Hi,
Some ISPs that provide satelite internet services provide two NICs, and sometimes a specilized software to manage them. But basically one link with a public IP is the tx link (transmit) and another, with a private ip like 192.168.*.*, the rx (receive) link.
Can this type of setup be supported by IPCOP, or does IPCOP already support such a configuration?

    Can IPCop support failover to a second or third red NIC,
    such as dialup or wireless? This would be useful, but I
    guess one interface needs to be the primary connection for
    any servers, even with dynamic dns. My holy grail would be
    some form of load balancing and/or bonded connection that
    could aggregate red interfaces according to both latency
    and throughput of each connection.

    User management is other problem... Perhaps a radius
    server would help to track down who is hogging my
    bandwidth! Can shaping/filtering be done by mac address or
    user login?

    Hi,

    I need to have a failover connection on my Red card.
    At the moment it takes too long and is not seemlesss.
    Does any one have any clue if IpCOp are looking at this feature ?

    All I have seen on the internet is loads of people asking the same question but no answers.

    Can some one HELP !!!

    Remove all dual red/balancing/fail over requests.
