 |

n00b question: is it possible to add all ip classes of a country to the routing table to be able to do bandwidth limiting per country?
thank you |

| I think not. Even if you could summarize the IPs of a country, it is not certain that it will stay the same for a long time. |

i have the following configuration
| Code: |
________
/
/
+-------------------+ /
| | /
+------+-------+ +------+-------+ /
+----------------+ | vlan1 | | vlan1 | /
| | | | | | |
| Local networks +----+ Zeroshell | | ISP +--+ Internet cloud
| | | | | | |
+----------------+ | vlan2 | | vlan2 | \
+------+-------+ +------+-------+ \
| | \
+-------------------+ \
\
\________ |
on vlan1 is routed the traffic to romania
on vlan2 is routed all the other traffic
i use freebsd and i want to use zeroshell
i don't know how to push the traffic to romanian ip's thru vlan1
do you think that by using the following example will work?
| Code: | echo 1 romania >> /etc/iproute2/rt_tables
ip route add default via x.x.x.x dev vlan1 table romania
ip rule add from a.a.a.a/24 table romania
ip rule add from b.b.b.b/24 table romania
... |
where x.x.x.x is the gateway from my provider and a.a.a.a/24, b.b.b.b/24 etc are the ip classes from romania
thank you |

| Well if you know the prefixes you can add them easily. Go to Network -> Router and Add a Static Route. Select a network with its mask and an interface instead of an IP. |

so, it's better to use the "main" routing table instead of two routing tables
i thought that because of the two vlan ips with the same gateway i should have two routing tables
anyway, thanks for the quick reply
also, do you know how to make this changes permanent?
and what about performance? i want to add about 5000 static routes via dev vlan1 |

Once changes are saved, they become permanent.
I don't think there will be a performance issue, however you could aggregate some /24 prefixes to /23 or /22 |
