Hi, I have a quick question for the networking experts on the list: I have a file server with two network cards (eth0 and eth1). Each of them will be linked to two different switches. I would like to use one of the two network cards for NFS, NBD and SMB/CIFS traffic only. Basically what I want to do is have one of the switch (the 1Gbps one) handle only storage-related traffic, thus creating a mini SAN. The rest of the traffic would travel on the network through a 100Mbps switch. How can I tell Linux to use one card for certain ports number and the other for the rest (http, pop3, ssh, ...)? Can the two network card be on the same sub-segment? Could Shorewall do that kind of job? I've used Shorewall as a firewall but have no experience with its traffic control features. I gave a quick look at route(8) and it doesn't seem to be suitable too. Thanks!
