Squid and Multiple Internet Connections

Hi,
I want to connect my Squid Proxy Server to
The two DSL Internet Connections I am having.

I want to configure my squid such that I can
use both the internet connection
simeltaneously, and do the load balancing
as well.

Thanks,
Amit

Re: Squid and Multiple Internet Connections

Because Squid as an application cannot tell the OS what routing information to use. This has to be done in the routing table or policy, not the application.

but you can do it on OS level.

Re: Squid and Multiple Internet Connections

i'd say to give automatic routing daemons a try, like routed, rdisc and gated.

man pages:
