Goodmorning,
I have a similar problem.
I have following architecture:
2 PC (PC A and PC B).
PC A has 2 Ethernet interfaces (A_eth0 and A_eth1).
PC B has 2 Ethernet interfaces (B_eth0 and B_eth1).
A_eth0 is connected through a wire with B_eth0 (in the middle there is a Switch: SWT_0)
A_eth1 is connected through a wire with B_eth1 (in the middle there is a Switch: SWT_1)
IP addresses used:
A_eth0: 192.168.30.1
A_eth1: 192.168.30.2
B_eth0: 192.168.30.3
B_eth1: 192.168.30.4
netmask: 255.255.255.0
SWT_0 and SWT_1 are 2 different switch (in order to realize a physical separation).
Operating system on both machine: LINUX UBUNTU 9.04
Aim of my test:
- realize communication between A_eth0 and B_eth0
- realize communication between A_eth1 and B_eth1
- A_eth0 and B_eth1 HAVEN'T TO communicate
- A_eth1 and B_eth0 HAVEN'T TO communicate
Problem I have:
- IF I remove wire connection between A_eth0 and B_eth0 THEN B_eth0 is achieved by PC A (passing through the wrong interface B_eth1)
In this case a non-desired communication between A_eth0 and B_eth1 is established.
- IF I remove wire connection between A_eth1 and B_eth1 THEN B_eth1 is achieved by PC A (passing through the wrong interface B_eth0)
In this case a non-desired communication between A_eth1 and B_eth0 is established.
I have realized following steps on both machines:
sysctl -w net.ipv4.conf.all.arp_filter=1
sysctl -w net.ipv4.conf.all.arp_announce=2
sysctl -w net.ipv4.conf.all.arp_ignore=1
/etc/init.d/networking restart
or
sysctl -w net.ipv4.conf.all.arp_filter=0
sysctl -w net.ipv4.conf.all.arp_announce=2
sysctl -w net.ipv4.conf.all.arp_ignore=1
/etc/init.d/networking restart
In any cases the problem is not solved.
Thanks for your attention.
Regards
Paolo
