Controlling traffic to multiple Network cards
Jun 02 05 5:59 pm
I have a computer with multiple network cards each with a static IP address assigned from my ISP. I am trying to use Wingate to control which requests go to which network card, using that network card's IP address. Wingate seems to recognize all the cards and IPs. I set up a proxy server and it seems to let me round robin through all of the cards. But it there any way to set up multiple proxy servers that each only uses one network card and specified IP address? That way when I change the proxy, it changes which network card it uses.
Maybe there is a better way to do this that I am not aware of. Proxy servers seem easy since most programs support them.

Right click the WWW Service and clone. Is that the solution you are after?

How will that work? Just set up WWW Service for each network card? Can you give me a little more detail?

My apologies Mendels,
I noticed in your post you did not specify which proxy you were talking about, so I thought you were talking about the WWW. Any way, I will do my best to explain this a bit further for you, but this could require more posts depending on the setup of each of your external IP addresses.. .because potentially, you could have multiple external IP Addresses, assigned by your ISP that could all have the same Gateway.
When you find the properties of any Proxy Service, whether its the WWW Proxy, RTSP Proxy, Telenet Proxy etc... there is a "Gateways" option. That is the option to specify which gateway is used by the proxy.
