Re: Run different PPPoE clients on the same eth port with different mac address [SOLVED]

It's not exactly clean either, but it looks like VRRP can be misused not only for multiple DHCP clients, but also for multiple PPPoE clients: /interface vrrp add interface=wan name=vrrp10 v3-protocol=ipv6 vrid=10 add interface=wan name=vrrp11 v3-protocol=ipv6 vrid=11 add interface=wan name=vrrp12 v...

Re: load balance lines based on time to use bursts

Can this be achieved by `limit` and `dst-limit` of the mangle mark connection rules of the pcc config?
looking at the docs they seem to be useful in my use case but I don't really understand the parameters that well so not sure if that would help

/routing/rule

Hello, I have multiple WANs and I'm using them in a PCC load balancing configuration but I noticed that my ISP has set up some sort of burst speed so when I start to download a file I get something like 10x the real speed of the line for a second or two and then the speed drops to the real line spee...

Run a pppoe client on a bridge?

Hello,
I have the ISP line through ether5 to my router, if i setup a pppoe-client on ether5 then it works fine, but if i put ether5 in a bridge and run the pppoe-client on that bridge then it doesn't work, the AC doesn't even reply to the `PADI` packets

Re: firewall src add and dst add

Problem is, it doesn't do what you think. You need the router to use the right resolver (i.e. not ISP's) and client to use router (default is 192.168.88.1; you can have different config) as resolver. What actually happens is that when client gets 192.168.88.1 and tries to use it, dstnat forwards al...

Akamai is CDN, i.e. huge network with servers all over the world, doing load balancing and stuff. Everything is dynamic.

W.r.t. your other suggestion: you have to understand that this method of setting up an address list is not at all related to actual traffic. The DNS queries are made (once everytime the TTL runs down to zero) no matter if there is any related traffic, and any traffic only matches what is in the add...

It would require to change how it works. Now you give it hostname and router actively resolves it. It's obvious that it can't try to resolve all possible combinations. So it would have to be as you suggest, not actively resolve anything, only look for what's already in cache. But it wouldn't work f...
