    Jon,
     
      With DAM enabled Server processing happens on Client port, with VMA
    disabled Client processing will happen on the Physical ingress port, and
    when the server replies the translation from RIP to VIP will not happen
    until it egresses on the Client port. SO if you have a filter to redirect
    server replies based on VIP you won't see the VIP as the source IP on the
    server port, as server processing hasn't happened yet. BUT with VMA both
    client and server will happen on the same port, which will probalby not be
    the phyiscal port for either the server or the client connection. So you can
    put in a filter that looks for VIP replies back to client and redirect them
    to the correct gateway.
     
    Does that answer the question?
     
    Regards,
     
    Ken

    Ken-

    Could you please expand a bit on why VMA would be required if DAM is
    enabled?

    Jay,

      What you can do is the following;

    1) create 2 reals, 1 being the ISP1 router, other being ISP2 router.

    2) put the reals in separate groups;

    3) Create redirect filters, with the following Criteria;
       SIP = 12.34.56.78 smask = 255.255.255.255 action redirect group = ISP1
    Router group.
       SIP = 23.45.67.89 smask = 255.255.255.255 action redirect group = ISP2
    Router group.
    4) Apply filters to server ports.

    This should work, as server processing will happen before filter processing.
    If DAM is enabled then VMA must be enabled for this to work.

    Regards,

    Ken T.

    I have an alteon 180e running webos 10, and need to get multiple gateways
    set
    up. Here is what we want:

    port 8 -> direct connection to ISP1
    port 7 -> direct connection to ISP2

    We have a web server load balanced (private IP space) running on port 1, and

    will have a virtual IP on both ISP1's network, and ISP2's network (ie, vip
    12.34.56.78 and vip 23.45.67.89). We have not set this up yet, so I do not
    know the behavior with multiple default gateways. I have port 1 on VLAN1,
    port 7 on VLAN7 and port 8 on VLAN8. I currently have a default gateway set
    up for ISP1, with the vip on that network, and all is fine. As of tommrow,
    we
    will get a our second connection in. If I add a second default gateway, does

    the Alton know which to use (based off which interface/vlan/network it came
    from)? Is there some way of specifying this? The doc's vaguely mention
    multiple gateways, and apparently only 184's can do gateways based on VLANs.

    Any advice?

    Jay
